Can it be used for Skype calls?

It is compatible with any Bluetooth enabled device, so theoretically, yes. I can't say I've personally used it for that, but I can't see why it wouldn't work.

I was able to use Skype on my HTC using the headset and it worked perfectly. I haven't used it on a tablet, desktop, or laptop though

it will only work if you have a ps3 and the ps3 camera and the skype app for ps3 otherwise it will not work

I believe it can be, it does have instructions for how to sync the headset with a cell phone so i assume if you are making skype calls with your cell phone then yes but with a laptop im not sure.....the charger cable will fit into a usb port in a labtop so maybe you can sync it that way but I'm not completely sure.....there is a 2 second delay with the mic but very good for gaming,i hope i could help Esther

Yes it does. To use it for skype you will need to set up a 'hands free device' profile. It works well with skype

I'm certainly no expert, but it appears to be limited to Skype. I don't see enough functionality in it to allow for other VOIP services.

To be honest im not sure if skype would work. Based on the way its OS works and the limited access to popular apps, i would guess no. And even if u could download it, i dont think it would be practical or even functional.

Yes...you can use Skype. All you need to do is download it onto the computer.

Yes. I currently use it on my laptop primarily for Skype as well. Works great so far.

Not traditional voice calls. This is not a phone. It runs skype so you could use it with skype to make calls.

I imagine you can.It came with Skype & other apps which I never had the chance of using.If I were you,I would think twice about throwing your money away on this device though.

As of May 2014, the answer is yes. It is compatible with Skype. I have it and I use it often. Today I have used again to talk to my familly abroad.

Hello Christina, you can use the PC for Skype calls. I think that this phone doesn't work with phone service.

Skype is set by default to show over everything else on the screen when it rings, so yes it's possible to answer the phone, by clicking the appropriate button. If you prefer speakers when not on the phone you must then plug the phone in: hectic, but it's worth it not having to yell at the computer in order to carry on a phone conversation. The changes in Skype warned about by Patrick E. allow you to use the USB phone still, but you can't dial anything on it, you must use skype's somewhat awkward dialpad to do this after Dec. 2013 - this a rather nasty-nerdy-dictatorial move, it seems to me - One way to get around it would probably be to use an old version of Skype.exe, many of which are available on the internet, or you can just not update if you have Skype already. Save a copy of a current or older Skype.exe file somewhere and you'll probably be able to dial indefinitely. Just don't update.

It depends on the application you're using. Skype certainly gives you that option.

I don't use Skype, so I really can't answer that. You might want to email the seller or something and ask.

I haven't tried using one for Skype, but I would imagine if you could set the microphone to be an output as well as input it could work. I would check YouTube first before trying though.
