Is Android 4.4 KitKat good?
The moral of the story. I repeat: do not buy a new Android phone or tablet that is still running Android 4.4 KitKat. Compared with a device running Lollipop or Marshmallow it is more vulnerable, compatible with fewer apps, less stable and unsupported. It also won’t be updated and will have worse battery life.
