I keep my cell simple. Samsung slider for calls and easy texting. I travel with it and my Nexus 7 for on-the-go internet access. The Nexus is great for real time communicating (texting) while flying. Sometimes the on-plane bandwidth will even support video calls. But mostly my experience is that they connect and are dropped since real time streaming is not supported. Video attachments on the plane both directions are supported and are fast and easy.
