"Here’s the best part. fring bypasses your mobile network and works on regular/mobile internet, instead. You can connect using your mobile data network like EDGE/GPRS/3G or even Wi-Fi. This means you can save some serious money by placing VoIP calls (instead of regular mobile calls) and using text chat (instead of SMS messages). So, how much does fring cost? You can get fring for the unbeatable price of zero dollars. Yup, fring is free. " |

If you’re using Nokia S60-based smartphone with built-in WiFi, you’re probably already familiar with fring. Basically, it’s the application that allows you to use Skype on your Symbian smartphone.
Last month, we saw fring entering the Windows Mobile market, and now they’re releasing the UIQ 3 version of their popular app. |
|
|
“A news which we had held back on for the past couple of months. fring today announced a version of their mobile app that also supports Windows Mobile platform. The service now up and running for around 300 Windows Mobile (version 5.0 and 6.0) devices.” |
|
|
“fring is an easy to use peer to peer communications program that allows cell phone users to talk for free via WiFi, 3G or GPRS. You can IM and talk via your handset's internet connection to other mobile phones and services like Skype, Google Talk, MSN Messenger, SIP and Twitter - at no extra airtime cost.” |

|
|
"fring is exactly what I need now, a client allowing me to do VOIP over 3G, which enable me as a consumer to make international calls.....having presence in the list was such a big utility that I would happily skip the native Nokia phonebook. I think it is this feature that sets apart Truphone and fring." |
|
|
"This was just announced earlier today and everyone is talking about it. The great VOIP application for your Nseries, fring, now has the facility to let you use and view Twitter, i.e. use the microblogging phenomenon everyone is into at the moment. There’s even a video." |
|
|
"When Jon from fring emailed me to say that they now support Twitter, I immediately thought of Phoneboy. If you follow his blog at all, you'll know he is a Twitter devotee and frequently defends Twitter from jaded skeptics and nay-sayers. So, does this mean that now we can expect Phoneboy to Fritter (fring plus Twitter)." |
|
|
"Mobile startup fring has found a smart way to make itself relevant and useful: by integrating Twitter. For those who aren’t familiar with it, fring uses your phone’s Internet connection to make VoIP calls, send IMs and use VoIP services (Skype, Google Talk , MSN Messenger and SIP are supported). The addition of Twitter means that you can save on your SMS bill, since fring works with Wi-Fi or your fixed data plan. So, no extra cost assuming you already have a data plan for your phone." |
|
|
"I tested fring on a Nokia N80 over T-Mobile’s network and I never had any problems with it other than forcing a few friends to download and use the app. They thank me everyday, now. In fact, a few friends told me how much better the voice quality was over my haggard Sidekick3. All you need to do is go to fring’s download page, fill in your information and you’ll get the app via SMS. Install is a breeze thanks to the onscreen instructions. What have you got to lose?" |
|
|
"Skype says: "Skype on Symbian is impossible now... "Well, fring just released it! I LOVE fring! Was waiting for such a long time for my "mobile skype"! Welcome to the new chapter of the mobile revolution.. Thank You Guys! You're the mobile phone providers' nightmare.. ;)" |

So now you can use Skype or Google Talk on your mobile phone, with full functionality, no need for additional hardware or a PC in between.

I installed fring in about 5 minutes over SMS and immediately all of my Skype contacts appeared on my handset ready to chat, call or Skype Out. Super super clever. No charge, just the data costs of sending voice or text over 3G. Super cheap international mobile to mobile voice chat anyone? Read on for more info and screenshots…” |

“mobile Voip...it Today I discovered fring, a new mobile technology enabling mobile Voip on smartphones, as my UMTS enabled Nokia N70. I installed the software and start doing some tests... First of all...I called standarn mobile numbers and the quality was very good. Second, I chatted with some of my Skype contacts and the user experience was not so cool as chatting using Agile Messenger, but it worked.. The last cool test was made doing a Skype call from the train I was travelling on to a friend that was on a bad internet connection in India....amazing...we could talk each other!!!” |
