Return of the Videophone (Part 973)
By RIK FAIRLIE
WorldGate’s Ojo Vision digital videophone is an option worth considering for those who don’t want to sit in front of a computer or use a smartphone to make video calls.
Set up was snap-simple: It took less than five minutes from unboxing to dialing. You can use a number assigned to you by WorldGate or port your existing number to the phone.
You see video via the phone’s bright 7-inch LCD screen. In test phone calls, audio and video quality were very good.
The downside? You can only place video calls to other Ojo Vision phones, which cost $150. That may be a deal-breaker for many, although some users, in reviews, said they bought three or more phones for family members and were very happy with the investment.
The $30 monthly service charge includes unlimited calls (voice and audio) anywhere in the United States and Canada.
If you want to conduct video calls with far-flung family members or close friends, the Ojo Vision is a good option. Just be prepared to persuade your most-called buddies to pony up for their own phone.
