I have tried making several calls to my family living in India and quite satisfied with the video and audio call quality. Specially if your over Wi-Fi it is flawless and very clear, but it did go down a bit when using mobile data. To conclude the video calling feature in WhatsApp will definitely make the rivalry among similar apps like Skype and fiercer.
