In this state of lockdown I want to get my elderly, non-WiFi/broadband parents a device that we can connect to via video. I have been looking at the Samsung Galaxy A10 as they can connect via 4G. My question is when the device has upgrades, can this be done over 4G? Thank you

Yes, that can be enabled in settings.

@caronwolf It's much better (and infinitely cheaper) to have a broadband connection and apps over WiFi for any video chat. You can connect using your phone's data, but unless you have an unlimited tariff it will eat up your allowance pretty quickly.

Thank you - no chance of persuading hem to have an alien in the house (I think that's how they view technology:))

Any ideas on best device for elderly parents so we can video chat (no broadband)
