Revision history [back]

I really looked forward to having the Jolla C. It would be a developer and community device. I've had the phone now for a about a week and ok, it was dirt cheap,so no complains about the price, but what was the Jolla team thinking? I'm sorry about being a critic here in the Sailfish / jolla community, but quite frankly, this phone is not going to help any Sailfish promotion.

I just like to sum up som of the points of criticism I and others noticed on this forum. Just because I want to.

• UI Lag...really, how is this possible??? QML and Silica are supposed to offer a super smooth experience on the most basic phone...well not on this one! (even with the governor mod)
• The camera is really, really from the year 2000...I can live with 8MP, but the quality is so damn poor.
• Weak antenna. Almost no 4g, where my other phone uses 4g all the time.
• noises and pops especially when using android apps.
• the screenprotector has fingerprints all over it after just one touch! I keep on wiping. My Lumia 950 xl without a screen protector does NOT attract fingerprints, so what's up?

How am I to enthuse others about Sailfish OS if the phone doesn't give a good experience?

On the upside: - I think the phone looks and feels great, nothing wrong with that. I'm drawn to it almost every day...I love the form factor, the look, the feel in my hand, the square corners..perfect. But when I turn it on...man...it turns me off and I put it away for another day.

Just wanted to get this of my chest.. peace can now enter my mind..
