So I am able to use video call with Google Duo but I'm not able to use the phone's built in video call for samsungs phone. I check my settings and there is no option for Video Call only video chat effects. Is anyone else having this issue and is there a way to fix it?

I don't think T-Mobile supports Samsung Video calling. This feature is carrier specific so just use another app if you're on an unsupported carrier

In order to use the Samsung version of video call, you have to use it with another user that owns a Samsung. The reason Google Duo is guaranteed to work is because it's more complex and people who own the app (such as any Android or Apple device) can use it freely.

The person also have Samsung as well (s20 Note Ultra) so it was strange that I couldn't use it. I seen online that you have to go to your phone settings and turn it on but my phone doesn't show it. 😔

So I just try doing it and it didn't work. When I disabled Duo it completely took off my video chat button on the setting. I'm not really sure what's the issue. I probably contact Samsung later and if there is a solution I post it thanks tho
