Knocking our socks since 2012, BongaCams is a so-called freemium live sex chat website without the stigma of “freemium” mobile games if you know what I mean. Once you get the hang of it, the door of free fun will open. Expect plenty of free nude shows in public chat rooms, and I'm sure it will be enough for quite a lot of you. Still, in case you want to be a part of the shows, contribute to the camwhores, demand something sexy on the stream or take the performer to the private, then get all kinky and nasty.

#2. First Impressions

To even load BongaCams, you must turn off your ad-blockers, assuming they’re as aggressive as life-hating geeks on Reddit. It might not even open, and you’ll be left wondering what happened. Of course, these kinds of annoyances don’t happen on fresh cam networks, but popularity comes at a cost. BongaCams website design is wonderfully comfortable to use, and I really like it. Their website has no severe drawbacks from the user’s point of view, although it’s not flawless either. Still, the way BongCams is set is positive and means you can focus on the bits that matter, aka sluts.

As you load BongaCams for the first time, it will auto-translate itself to the geolocation of your ISP’s country. There are almost 40 different languages, although translating main titles is not exactly rocket science. In their defense, BongaCams gives you all the tools to narrow down hot sluts, and you’ll end up streaming sexual shows from your homeland.

What will your face look like during BongaCams’ first visit? It’s excitement mixed with “stop it, please,” and that’s where most of the site’s cons come from. Among “first impressions” are chat windows with Skype-like pop-ups at the bottom of the screen. Those will appear the second you open any free show. All the cheesy advertising lines are here with pre-scripted “Hey, watch me, listen to my voice.” Messages. I have no clue why this is on, but those must be converting to free registrations like crazy, as BongaCams keeps doing that. The second invitation will come in massive windows that take 80% of your screen, and again, you’re free to disregard them. I hate when people beg me, and BongaCams comes close. Let me enjoy the show, and if your site is any good, I’ll join and get some credits on my own time. Thankfully, these trash ads disappear after you log in. Should we talk about what you do next?

#3. Camgirls & User Experience

Not counting the first free tokens, BongaCams always has an active promotion or two. There are cashback offers, exclusive gold memberships, mobile tokens, etc. Their credit costs are somewhat like all the other cam sites, so there’s no shock factor or insane prices. Also, the more you buy, the less you pay per actual credit, and I like to stack them for 3 to 6 months. That works in my favor since I can squeeze in an extra month of free premium fun, if you will.

Minus the first impressions, there’s a “mobile first” feel to BongaCams that could confuse newcomers. For example, this cam network has no actual menu, and it’s hidden at the top left corner. Do you know those mobile menu icons? Yes, that’s what it looks like here, too, and once you hit that, multiple cam filters appear. Region options include Russians, Europeans, Americans, Canadians or Australians, Latin Americans, Asians, and others. Then, it’s down to spoken language, appearance, body type, boob size, etc. It’s not a perfect system to get “advanced results,” but it works fine to remove hoes unsuitable for your taste.

BongaCams homepage could seem crowded for anonymous users or those that have already visited Chaturbate , CamSoda, or StripChat. Those are as clean as a whistle, while BongaCams goes further with ads and promotional offers.

Earlier this year, I praised LiveJasmin’s quality, but BongaCams can be just as awesome with resolution up to 1080p. Also, there are different toggles, and you don’t just turn HD on or off. Nope, this is more to my liking and works like YouTube. Of course, depending on camgirl and her equipment, 1080p in one room might not look as good as 720p in another. I love BongaCams chat, though; it is colorful, has large font sizes, and is full of functions like dice rolls, wheel spins, auto DJ, etc. Additional options include a slot machine and a game called bingo, which can also be enabled or disabled individually by the streamer.

Many will ignore a mini profile at the bottom of the screen to learn more about BongaCams models. It’s lackluster and has a sentence or two for the most: no birthdates, last login times, location details, or whatever. Wait! Do you mean there are no profile details? There are! However, those are as hidden as a box of used condoms down the whore’s throat. Instead, look for a “hidden” menu at the top that says “profile.” That is where you learn more about the model, and the whole page looks like those old MySpace dating sections. It's not horrible, but there’s no reason for it to be that way, especially when camgirls decide to use dark text on black backgrounds. There’s no point in visiting that section more than once, and just so you know, out of all the cam sites that I’ve reviewed in my life, StripChat.com had like the best implementation, ever.

#4. Conclusion

I often return to BongaCams, which is always a pleasant experience. Here’s a tip: create yourself a free account, so they would stop bugging you about getting an account. Their messages about that are annoying.
