Of course it is..... this is Android! Tango, Qik, Skype, Oovoo and etc. Check them out at the Google Play Store.

Now now, you meant Apple right? say Apple then, no need for you to try be the "cool kid" I think he means actually video calling over the network not using data and I do not think that is possible.

Huh?

He wants to know if you can use the GSM network for video calling just like normal calling-without data,and that is impossible

He specified over 3G or WiFi, not the cellular network.

Exactly. But I'm still perplexed with Parth's comment... I've never heard of "GSM Video Calling" lol.

Yeah I doubt thats even possible!
Could it be he got confused by the fact that the thread title had GSM in it when there was no need for it?

That's what I'm assuming. I think the OP was just specifying his device not knowing that all N4's are GSM devices.

Seriously guys?

UMTS / 3G standard video calling (or the lack of it!) | qrant

There is a video conferencing standard for UMTS and later. It's just Android, iOS, and probably WP doesn't support it .. well clearly no one remembers it anymore. My old Sony Ericsson phone supported front facing video calling over 3G (built in, no apps) but no carriers in the US supported it.

Anyway, he did mention using it over WiFi which would mean he would have to use something like Google Talk or Skype but his inclusion of (GSM) in the topic title meant the above.

Guys, i'm just clerifying again to clear all confusion..
i mean to ask if we can make video calling though 3g/wifi witohut any 3rd party app to other 3g/wifi enabled phone directly via network in nexus 4?

for google talk,skype, it need to be installed and logged in in other usrs phone also, i mean to ask if by simply calling user over gsm-3g network, we can do video call in nexus 4 or not?

No, you need an app to video call
