Over the past several months, my family’s video calling rates have skyrocketed. It started with the kids making video calls for distance learning at school. Then, my husband’s work meetings switched over to video calls. Before we knew it, video calls became the new normal way for us to stay connected with everyone, especially friends and family.
To make our new video call-filled way of life easier, we got a Portal by Facebook. This smart home device has a Smart Camera that automatically pans and zooms to follow the action. No matter where you go in the room, the camera keeps you in the frame.
How Portal by Facebook Works For Video Calls:
The Portal makes smart video calling simple using Facebook Messenger or WhatsApp. If the person you call doesn’t have a Portal, the call will automatically go to their smartphone or tablet.
Making a Facebook Messenger video call is super easy with the Portal! Use the Portal’s touchscreen to scroll through contacts and make calls. To make it even easier, add frequent contacts to a Favorites list.
The Portal also responds to voice commands. To start a video call, say, “Hey Portal, call (name of contact).”

Portal products come in a variety of screen sizes (8-inch, 10-inch, and 15.6-inch HD Displays.) We have the 10-inch Portal device. The Portal’s 10-inch HD touchscreen works in Portrait or Landscape.
It’s not a big deal to move the Portal to any room in the house. Simply plug it into an electrical outlet, connect to WiFi, and Portal is ready to use. We move our Portal pretty often to make video calls from different rooms.
The Portal has front stereo speakers and a rear woofer. Video calls sound great, and we can enjoy streaming music on the Portal with the Pandora app.
Speaking of apps, the Portal can access a variety of useful apps including Pinterest, Instagram, and Prime Video. New apps and features are being added to Portal, so it gets even better with time!
My kids especially love the Augmented Reality effects. AR makes video calling even more fun for everyone. Change the backgrounds, add visual and sound effects, and more. Even the adults like to play around with the AR effects.
The more my family uses our Portal, the more things we discover it can do for us. Plus, Portal has Alexa built-in. So basically that means everything Alexa can do, Portal can do, too.
When our Portal isn’t in use, it fits right into our home decor as a digital photo frame. It’s fun to see my Facebook and Instagram photos on display.
