Battery life is excellent thanks to a 1150mAh capacity and is particularly commendable when you consider that the Skypephone is a 3G mobile phone which normally have notoriously poor usable capacity.
According to Three, the phone means a standby period of nearly two weeks - helped by the fact that it goes in sleep mode fairly quickly - but talk time is substantially less at around four hours.
The Skypephone also comes with the regular set of utilities like an alarm clock, a calculator, a calendar, a notepad and a stopwatch plus the ability to synchronise your phone with your PC via an USB cable and Bluetooth compatibility.
The Software
The BREW Operating environment - which powers the Skypephone - is a Qualcomm product whilst the Skype Interface is provided by iSkoot.
The Skype application can be called up simply by pressing the big "Skype" button that lies in the middle of the phone and which is surrounded by a silver frame which happens to be a four-directional key.
