which version of skype is best to use on W10 Anniversary Update

<p>Surprisingly the Windows 10 preview app is actually&nbsp;very good. And&nbsp;this is&nbsp;coming from somebody who *tried* to use the Windows 8 experience (Messaging + Video) many times but kept going back to the full-blown Win32 client.</p>
<p>Notifications are reliable across the board (I have Skype Preview on my Windows Phone, Surface, Desktop and I have Skype on my iPad and Android devices too), conversations come in timely (within seconds of them being sent to me), and all the functionality I care about is now there.</p>
<p>Very (very) occasionally, I’ll get the odd issue where a notification comes in a few minutes after the message (but that’s very rare now), or if I switch on a device that I’ve not been using I’m occasionally flooded with "old" notifications, but in general it is a lot smarter about knowing which of my devices I’m currently active on and not bombarding my non-active devices (and it does sync which messages are read/unread).</p>
<p>Up until very recently, I kept the Win32 version of Skype on my machine, and it would prompt me to pick my default version and wouldn’t send me two notifications, so that’s something you could do until you’ve decided which is best for you.</p>
<p>For me, the Skype Preview now does everything I need, and is a lot faster and cleaner than the Win32 version so a few weeks back I moved to using it full time (and removed the Win32 app).</p>
<p>For me, those things I needed were… Screen sharing, being able to change audio/video inputs and outputs, stable notifications, drag and drop of files (and storing them in the cloud so I can get to them from any device), voice/video messages, and obviously messages coming through in the first place (which had been so unreliable in the Windows 8 version of Skype with those two Messaging + Video apps).</p>
<p>Hope that helps!</p>
