I can recommend Xabber, a client rich in functionality which was supposed to have its source code released, but I don't know what became of that. It works well, has logging and contact list integration (which almost works).
There is also Yaxim, which is completely free and works well but doesn't come with any of the extra functionality.
Those are all chat only. Voice and video chat is probably better served using SIP on Android as there is some native support for it.

OT: XMPP clients on Android Posted Oct 16, 2012 14:23 UTC (Tue) by debacle (subscriber, #7114) [Link] I can find yaxim on F-Droid, as well as Beem and Gibberbot, but not Xabber. Is it free software?

They ran a "If we get X followers on Twitter in a month, we'll release Xabber under GPLv2" campaign a month or two ago (I think X was either 500 or 1000). Not sure if they made it or not.

Heh, it's 50,000. Well, it's close in some respect :P . That said, they're at 3,000+ right now, so it's pretty far away. Even though notifications are busted (no LED, sound, and an icon is missing for the bar[1]), the auto-OTR is worth it, IMO.
[1]There's a gap for it, but it's invisible if at the end of the icons.
