Skype for Windows 8 brings the service's excellent video chat service to the Modern UI.
There are plenty of things to love about Skype for Windows 8, as it brings a full Skype experience to Windows 8.
You can perform audio and video calls, text, and instant message your friends. It's a shame that it doesn't integrate with Facebook like Microsoft's Messaging app so you can have all of your friends in one app. Still, what Skype for Windows 8 does, it does very well. Calls were loud and clear and video started up quickly, though the image looked a bit grainy.
The interface looks a bit sparse but it works well. Your recent calls, favorites, and contacts are all available from the home screen. You can change your Skype status on the top right. Skype for Windows 8 includes a bunch of fun, animated emoticons, which are sure to please emoji lovers.
Overall, Skype for Windows 8 provides a great video and messaging experience for Windows 8 users but could be improved with Facebook integration.
