Tablets with video calling capabilities have Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) as the underlying technology for communication. The best tablet for video calling should be armed with fast internet connectivity, video calling apps, front camera and audio support.

It is always better to opt for the tablets having only Wi-Fi connectivity as those are affordable and best for video calls. The tablets having 3G connectivity would incur more cost as data plans would be required to connect to the internet.

There are lots of apps available for free download on all the tablets for video calls. Skype is the most powerful video calling app which is used on almost all platforms. Besides, there is an app like FaceTime which is restricted for use only in Apple tablets while Google+ Hangout is a famous video calling app for Android and Apple tablets.

Tablets having good quality cameras should be given preference for better image quality. Concentrate on the front camera resolution which could be 5 megapixels atleast. Moreover, high voice quality should accompany your image for an enriched video chat. Look for the tablets having good input and output audio features. Tablets with microphone, speakers and headphone have to be your topmost choice for video calling.

The Sony Xperia Z4 Tablet is an excellent piece of kit: it’s quick, powerful, effortlessly good-looking and incredibly light.

It makes the iPad Air 2 more compelling than any previous cellular iPad, although you still have to pay a painful $130 extra for that modem.

Forgoing high-end gimmicks, the slate's supreme specs speak for themselves -- it prevails as the preeminent premium, pure Android tablet to date.

Plenty of features.

In every way that matters, this is a great tablet.
