Google Duo Video Calling app Review (Simple, Beautiful, But Not Recommended for Slower Network)

By
The much awaited Google Duo Video calling has been launched on Android. The app has a new icon and new too, which is different when it was under beta.




We spent a few hours with this app to check as of now how the app performs in terms of
  • Day to Day usage for making video calls
  • Is there any lags due to heavy usage
  • Any app crash
We are going to see each of these points.

Installation & Setup

The app can be downloaded using this link and installed on any Android phone running Android version 4.1 and above. You also be need a working cellular number too. But if you don't have a working cellular number you can use mobile/wifi network to verify the phone you are installing Duo. 

That's It !!! Pretty simple in configuration and installation.

Features & Usage

  • Once you will start the app it will turn on your front camera and will  show options like making a call and notifications if there is any missed video call from other users. In case any user has already joined the Duo you will get a "Knock Knock" prompt.

  • After this you will see your front cam is on and you will get other notifications here.


  • One installed you can send invite to other peoples that are in your contact list, just by typing the number.
  • If you are getting any video call then then it will be similar to how you are getting voice calls.

  • If you just swipe up then it will show the your video live from the front camera.

  • One the call is answered you will get usual feature to disconnect the call too. 


Usage Experience

I will be honest here of what I found in my area and network. I used two phones, here
  • Nexus 6P (Airtel 3G on Roam)
  • Lenovo Vibe K5 Note (WiFi 8Mbps BSNL)
In this set of network condition my calling (video calling) experience is not good. The voice was continuously breaking and even video got freeze couple of times, See below,



You can see I did saw this many times "Poor Connection Video Paused". I am sure using LTE connection it will have different experience, But not everyone is using 4G here.

Nothing Phone 2: There's something in marketing gimmick

By
Nothing Phone 2 Squabble: Nothing priced its first phone (Nothing Phone) at 32,000 on July 12, 2022. The phone was distinct because to its glyph light feature and distinctive operating system. Nothing has also developed Nothing EAR (TWS), a Landon-based firm that has sold over 1 million units worldwide as of the end of 2022. Here is our whole Nothing Phone 2 review. Carl Pei, CEO of Nothing Nothing Technology Limited (stylized as NOTHING), has introduced Nothing Phone 2, and people are discussing his marketing techniques rather than his products. They implement a twofold embargo for artists; it appears that they are encouraging influencers to engage in dark marketing. Mr. Rakesh, alias Gyan Therapy, made a video opposing the embargo while everyone else was busy fluffing it.  So, following the contentious embargo, I've discovered two major reasons to avoid Nothing Phone 2: 1. Expensive Pricing: The Nothing Phone 2 costs roughly 45,000 INR, which is 5,000 INR higher than the Oneplus ...
