BBM 8 is actually not new to us here…. We previewed and gave out download links couple of months ago on the LSS Blog
Without doubt, BBM8 is attractive and it has more functions
which succeeds BBM7 and below. However, it has huge disabilities.
You have BBM8 and its working fine? Good luck to you.
BBM8 came with so many disabilities
(especially users whose blackberry OS is running below 7.1), you have no reason to upgrade from BBM7 (trust me).
¤¤¤•
According to many reviews and complaints, below are the disabilities of BBM8;
1. It will slow down the operating system of your Blackberry device.
2. Your Blackberry Messenger’s display picture will get to a point at
which it will refuse to change, hard reset will not change it neither.
3. You are the type that send broadcast messages? BBM8 is the wrong BBM for you. WHY?
4. Opening the Broadcast Message screen will take you nothing less than two minutes to open (so irritating).
5. BBM8 might eventually crash some lower blackberry phones (talk about using it on a Torch or I daresay Bold2).
6. Contacts display picture comes out in thumbnails.
Solution?
Don’t stress yourself wiping your BlackBerry device nor wasting your time and money giving your device to an engineer to format.
Simply download the BBM7 according to your Operating System (OS) below;
