Yeah in 2010 maybe.. now BBM is just full of chavy teens, Broadcasting bollocks about One Direction and Chain Mail every 5 minutes.

And I mean, literally.. every-five-minutes.

LOL What do you mean 'Pretty much everything except Twitter and Facebook' there is nothing else.. other than Twitter and Facebook?

Samsung Galaxies are more customisable and practical than iPhones but I find they're a lot more glitchy and I can't use the keyboard.

Also - download KiK, that's far better than BBM but then again everyone cried because of that rumour that it was a virus So it's deserted now.

So download 'WhatsApp' instead - it's basically BBM but reaches across all smartphones not just ChavBerry, and it's far FAR faster than BBM.

Agree there - after a while the touch screen is abit less reliable, but they're certainly customizable. I've got an iPhone theme on mine

It's all dependent on what you want out of your phone tbh.

I would recommend the iPhone though, because its the one mobile on the market today that has some sort of guaranteed longevity. All the other brands obsolete each other within months (or just weeks in the most extreme cases), whereas the iPhone isn't renewed for at least a year.

For anyone who likes Blackberries: You are buying obsolete, ****ty hardware, with matching obsolete, ****ty software. They are the worst phones on the market today. Even Nokia's range surpasses them, that how terrible they are. It really baffles me how anyone can put up with their sluggishness and the general ****tyness of them, but then I think of BBM, yet isn't that going down a lot too?

They are so crap omg. You can get much better Android phones for the same price, and nearly all of those have unlimited texting with their price plans eliminating the need for BBM. /techgeek

I think that says more about your circle of 'friends' than your phone tbh. I have BBM and I don't have those types of people or problems.

Also, where did your hate for chavs come from, you used to be one.

Well loads of people I know still use it, or have it logged on. It has died a lot but it's not Bebo/MySpace level, it's still an easy way to talk if it doesn't slow my old computer. BBM is good for on the go but when you're sat at home on a computer/laptop, MSN is far easier.

But yeah I don't get why you made this poll if you just made a random decision half way through LOL

Yeah I agree MSN is way better than BBM. But there's nothing I can do
You're lucky, I would do anything for my friends to be back on MSN
But they've just left it for facebook and bbm

& yeah lol i've just picked up my new blackberry replacement so this poll is now pointless
