To me WhatsApp is the least interesting social network even Nairaland is more interesting than WhatsApp recently i just quit using the App because of the boredom if it were to be 2go self i would have felt the impact but for Whatsapp its doesn't have any effect on me and so many people.

Window phones 7.1

iPhone 3GS/iOS 6

Andriod 2.1 and Andriod 2.2

The company added through its blog post that despite it was a tough decision for them to make, but still the right one in order to provide better service and better ways to keep in touch with your family, friends and loved ones using Whatsapp. Therefore if your phone falls within the stated range, you are advised to either upgrade to the newer version of Andriod, iPhone, Window or get a newer ones before the due date.

My advice to you, If you’re planning to buy a second-hand phone for whatsapp reason, Please kindly beware of the version to buy as to prevent you from buying unsupported Whatsapp phone.

Anyone still using any of those devices, most especially d Nokia symbian actually stuck in d stone age.
At least you can still use it while charging. We value phones for different reasons and I still have a symbian phone to cover the lapses of android once a while.

Trust me, something better that whattsapp will come up. whattsapp had been around for long but just when they got popularity instead of cashing on it, they decide to adopt policies that 'll make them go extinct again. These phones listed are phone used by the poor, average and even some rich folks. It's like overhauling the mobile industry. They better have a rethink if not, Bbm and others will be revived. There was once a time bbm was the biggest chart site and better still most of those phones can have access to pins. All BlackBerry needs is a little touch and watch them bounce back.

Blackberry with OS 10 (Q5, Q10, classic, passport...) are old phones as well? If whattsapp can't manage their traffic, it's best they say the truth and if they want a fee paid for using it they should come out plane rather than all these. My candid opinion.

I concur. Even before the invention of aircraft people have been flying.....
But you will agree that Whatsapp has come to stay. It's almost like people can't really do without it these days.
The likes of Tecno and other chinese oems have made it possible for us to own phones that are affordable, so its only natural to find a way to communicate that is a lot faster.

Whatsapp has filled that gap.
