Hi Neil,

 

A Google search for "How much data does Skype use over 3G" gives you a ton
of results where this is explained. Here are a few of the findings:

 

We decided to try and find out how much data a typical Skype call would use,
so we made a five-minute call from Skype on an iPhone over 3G to another
Skype user. During that time, we received 1.5MB of data and sent 1.8MB for a
total of 3.3MB of data transmitted.

 

This would mean approx. 0.66 Mb per minute for a voice call although I also
heard the number of 0.8 Mb before.

 

Video calls take about 3.4 Mb per minute.

 

If you have a 2 GB per month data plan I don't think you have anything to
worry about unless you use up 90% of that for music streaming and so on.

Even if you had only 100 Mb left, you could still use Skype for at least an
hour and a half for audio calls over 3G.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Subject: What is the band width of Skype audio?

 

Hi, Does anyone know how many KBPs or some other measure would be used by an
audio call in Skype in a given time period? I don't worry about this when I
am on wireless, but if I am not, I would like to know how much data I am
using.

 

Thanks for any help on this.

 

Neal
