SingTel makes Singapore’s first public 3G video calls
December 19, 2002
SingTel has made Singapore’s first 3G video calls in public, confirming
its position as the leading mobile communications operator in Singapore.
SingTel conducted the person-to-person mobile video calls today
from Suntec City’s Fountain of Wealth. The trial system which supported
the 3G video calls is supplied by Ericsson.
Mr Andrew Buay, SingTel’s Vice-President (Consumer Marketing),
said: “SingTel has been proactively working with 3G network vendors
and developers as lead time will be needed to identify useful applications
and build up competencies to operate and offer 3G services. Mobile
video telephony has been identified as a differentiating 3G service
that will benefit customers. It is even more personal than voice
calls and offers a richer communications experience.
“For example, parents could see and talk to their children who
are studying overseas. Couples can consult each other on their respective
purchases even if they are not shopping together. A businessman
can commute and yet be able to have face-to-face meetings with his
partners. It could also be useful in emergency medical situations
if a doctor cannot arrive quickly but is able to see and give some
advice in the meantime, ” Mr Buay added.
Said Mr Claes Odman, President of Ericsson Singapore: “We are delighted
to contribute and be part of SingTel’s 3G mobile video telephony
demonstration. Video telephony is a key application that will enhance
end user experience. Through its continuous leadership in mobile
communications, Ericsson is committed to support SingTel’s in its
evolution into 3G.”
In November last year, SingTel successfully completed 3G voice
calls as part of its 3G trial. Local and overseas calls were made
to test the quality of 3G voice calls.
