We can’t deny how important Whatsapp is, some years back, many of the phones you’d find on the list below is at the top of their game.

Find to know if your phone was listed, and also check out my honest advice on what to do with your phone when it eventually appear there.

3. All Nokia S40 Phones Includes;

Nokia Asha 201, Nokia Asha 300, Nokia Asha 302, Nokia Asha 303, Nokia Asha 306, Nokia Asha 311, Nokia C3-00, Nokia C3-01, Nokia X2-00, Nokia X2-01 and Nokia X3-02, 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.

My advice:

I know some of my friends that still go around flaunting some of these old phones, and am sure they are reading this right now. So awkwardly true, I once rocked the E63 & some other Symbian phones on that list, it was an adventure that had to end for new tidings to unfold with Android. It must have been a relieve for you to notice your device wasn’t included, however, if you have you phone there, whether second or third phone..just make sure you donate it to the poor, try one of those orphanage homes or send it to the village where you know there aren’t internet connection yet, but wait, my Granny uses an Android phone! So I guess it’s useless right?
