Today, with the extensive use of 3G and internet in mobile, developers are coming up with products that will revolutionize the way we message people. We have one such product for review at your Adda today.  Read on.

Presenting to you ‘WeChat‘, a robust, fast-performing, 100% free mobile voice, video and text messaging application with the strength of over 200 million users worldwide.
