Microsoft today released a new optimized version of Skype for Android devices running 4.0.3 to 5.1. According to Microsoft, this update will run better on lower-end Android devices as the updated app will consume less device storage and RAM memory. Improved performance will make Skype audio and video quality better even in poor network scenarios.

Microsoft will roll out this update worldwide in the coming weeks. You can also sign-up for the Skype Insiders program to try out the latest version of Skype for Android today.
