What version of Facebook is available for Windows Phone 8, is it better than the previous one and why?

[Bobby]

I want to get the Lumia 625 (Windows Phone, it has WP8 pre-installed) and is the Facebook app better than the previous version? And also if you leave the chat open on screen would you receive the message automatically? Did they add that feature? Or is it like the old Facebook app where you had to refresh it to see the message?

Thank you.

Ughh.... i just made the mistake of updating it last night. I'm not a huge fan, I find it less user friendly. It looks nicer. I'd stay with the old version.
