What will your next phone be? [answered]
My Jolla phone is showing its age these days: the battery is failing, a third party spare (Cameron Sino) that I bought doesn't work brilliantly (possibly it was loose: been better the last few days since I jammed it in with some paper), and generally the phone struggles with modern web sites and apps - although its built-in basic features all still work as well as ever.
What phones are you looking at as replacements for your Jolla? Is there a modern phone which runs Sailfish well? Looking at the Cyanogen compatibility matrix, many of the models listed are a few years old, and compatibility is patchy. Are you looking at the Ubuntu phone? Etc.
I'm quite attracted by the Sony Z series: powerful, waterproof, has an impressive compact model, and Sony seem to have an open source support policy of sorts; older models at least run Cyanogen though I'm not sure about the current ones. Very interested in dual SIM, but their open source layer, and of course Sailfish, don't support that.
i think that the current official sfos phones which would be supported for sure from jolla are the intex and the fairphone. Others are more or less ported one, and not expected to be fully supported at the moment...

I hope the port of Sailfish will work soon (main camera, head phone etc, and android support) yes, hardware of my jolla is old, camera lost sharpness and green color is to weak. But 1GB RAM is the main reason.
