How is it with the delays? Does it affect Jolla phone too?

I recently read a lot about people not getting their tablets, so my concern is if it is safe to buy a new jolla phone?

The one I own has some yellow markings on display, battery is not in a shape it was when was new, so I thought it's time to buy a new one, but am not sure if it pays off due to delivery problems.

Thanks.

That's a known fault with the display, and should be under warranty cover

I don't think my phone is covered by warranty anymore :)

Got my last on end of november, so already during "the crisis". Took 8 days from click to door (germany). But no communication inbetween, so beware and be patient ;)

Ignore the yellow blotch that intermittently appears (use darker themes) and replace your battery with a Polarcell HTC310 battery.

Polarcell HTC310 battery - http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/PolarCell-Battery-HTC-Desire-310-D310N-B0PA2100-BA-S960-Battery-/391236335840?hash=item5b1780b8e0:g:AuEAAOSwDNdViou5

My phone also has the yellow 'stain' that comes and goes, but it does not affect the use of the phone and the polarcell battery?, I highly recommend it.

Waiting for Jolla to offer another 'batch' of batteries is like waiting for chickens to grow teeth.

Intermittently? It's screen burn-out, and far from intermittent; it's permanent. And a substantial number of the Jollas suffer from it.

People are getting their phones AFAIK.

Yep, I ordered a Jolla & Aloe TOH in the middle of the crisis (as a backup unit & to support Jolla) and it arrived during December. :)
