Next Sailfish device? [duplicate]
asked 2019-08-19 11:34:57 +0200
My Xperia X is starting to fail, screen and charging port are having issues. So I had to buy a new device. The XA2 is no longer available so I had to abandon Sailfish for now.
After a few days I do miss Sailfish swiping and the fact that the Android ones tend to think for you, whereas with Jolla 1 onwards I felt I was in charge (not the OS).
Where is the next hardware option? Eventually I will be back one day. Props to you all who remain sailing...
what do you mean by "xa2 is no longer available" ? there at least 4 different model just at a.m.a.z.o.n; unless you got your xperia with sailfish already installed it's the same procedure. Not sure if you need to buy a new sailfish license or if you can transfer to a new phone (?)
btw, what happened with the inoi 5x ? look like it's only available in Russia with android.

lispy ( 2019-08-19 12:18:49 +0200 )editPLEASE not a new device yet, let Jolla first make a good working OS out of the box wich takes full advantage of the hardware , no its still full with bugs, workarounds and missing features, X and XA2 variants.! And if u think otherwise u surely not read all the questions/bug reports/help topics on this site!
aQUICK1 ( 2019-08-19 13:40:39 +0200 )edit@aQUICK1 Believe it or not, but in a matter of a few months, new XA2 phones will be available only from few merchants on eBay and Amazon, selling it for an overpriced value and with doubtful reputation regarding communication with customers. And no possibility to buy a new device means no new users for Jolla which will inevitably lead to extinction of the community.
