I barely use more than 3-4 apps. Facebook, Whatsapp and something for office notes etc but Windows Phone has that covered beautifully.

Basically ... how bad are Facebook and Whatsapp on it. Reading this thread sheds a bad light.
They're quite atrocious compared to Android.

I checked with the friend of mine who is using a 535, as well as a colleague who is using a 925 and both the apps are working fine.
Even back in November, I don't remember having many, if at all, problems with either of the apps.

Skype is crashing on my phone. Refuses to launch. It happened even before the Denim update got applied. Anybody else experiencing this?

No offense to any windows phone user but my experience with WP is plain bad.

Bought a HTC 8X for my mother. Cause i was told that Windows phones are generally easier than android. And BOY I was 'wrong'. Even Dialing a phone call is a headache in Windows Phone. Dialer app directed me to Call log instead of keypad. So i used a thirty party rapidialer. Sure it brought keypad to a single tap away. But you have to Dial the number first. Then confirm it. As per windows conditions.It doesn't allow any third party app to Dial a call without asking each and everytime. I mean that was kinda BULLSH%$. Don't you think? :p

So after 2 days of torture. Returned the phone to the shopkeeper.

HTC 8X Brand new is available in market for 10.5K ^^. So no Lumia 535 isn't the best option. Buy a 8X instead.

    Is it just me or people lately seem to defend every bad game design decision made by the devs and try to give bullshit reasons for that? Or perhaps it's because I'm on reddit and discord :ROFLMAO:
