tonardo: One of the disadvantage of whatsapp is sharing your phone number to strangers.
Strangers already had your number before they add you on whatsapp and if you dont want them you can always block them.
To me getting everyone on to chat with is the selling point of whatsapp. Nimbuzz existed years trying to restrict access like BBM but u never fancy them, Whatsapp adds automatically, you install it and later complain.
It is always a choice but for me i prefer the add everybody then i will choose who to block than sending and responding to pin/friends requests

I feel your pain buddy and with the way it is, you've got to keep improvising until gravity acts on the prices like it has done on sim cards over the years.

I prefer both actually.

But I noticed that pictures that are sent via BBM are usually compressed and not clear enough.

I kinda prefer the UI of BBM to WhatsApp.

The only thing I prefer WhatsApp to BBM is the 'last seen' feature.

I feel more comfortable giving someone my pin than my number.


Overall, I don't really care!

I dont think that is true. If they do not have your phone number before, they cant send you a message. They must have saved your number before you appear on their whatsapp account.

Most people are not really really interested in someones mobile number nowadays,except you are a president,minister,governor or a (CLASS A) celebrity...

I prefer whatsapp a bit.

I don't even need to compare anymore as both of them are on my phone and I can switch to which one I prefer at any given time.

For me its the other way around,i give my pin to those I wanna give it 2,accept those I wanna if by chance someone's gives out my pin without my permission,

But WhatsApp any dick & harry can get me cos no requests whatsoever ever is sent.

Well both have their advantages and disadvantages. Well for me i prefer BBM because you can restrict you contact members because without an individual having your PIN number he or she cannot have you on his or her contact. But Whats app isn't like that because with your mobile number i can still have access to your profile photo and can still send you messages except it's blocked but which doesn't still block someone from seeing your profile photo and some other activities.

Re: BBM vs Whatsapp: Which Is Better? by UNLEASHED(m): 3:19pm On Oct 23, 2013
I've got both so I really don't care about which one is better because they both serve me in different ways but if I HAVE to choose, I'll go for BBM cuz I can give my pin out to anyone but quite conscious of who I give me number to.
Re: BBM vs Whatsapp: Which Is Better? by Lilaex: 3:20pm On Oct 23, 2013
Clearly this one has not use a BB b4.. So shut up.

[quote author=deejay_harry1]whatsapp beats dis bbm shii..

unlike whatsapp..


u get useless uneeded updates when, somone changes his or her status, changes their display pics... or is even listening to a song on his phone...
(cool.. but useless somtimes)

someone can add a third party to a private chats witout ur confirmation
(privacy lost).
