Revision history [back]

My jollac got its screen busted after the nth fall; so I was forced to my backup jolla, the oth.

I wanted to share my experience cause I believe it to be relevant. I think others could (and shluld!) do the same too.

First a bit of background; as mentioned I own an OTH with the red poppy; which means ive been riding sailfishes since beta days. In the beginning, the first impression was "meh" mostly due to the poor performance, as well as primitive os (it was, sorry jolla guys). surely it had nice ideas, like the vertical swipe ui, and the other half concept (which btw i think is cool); but othereise, it wasnt the step forward from meego, that was to be expected. Typing was horrible, the web browser was slow; the ui was sluggish at best, mails were working on and off, calling was difficult, receiving calls was a lottery, calendar was not syncing; well it was beta. I gladly switched to jollac (without regrets), which gained some speed and the bogger screen. So now! As i dont own android and/or ios, once my jolla c broke, my only option was to wait for sailfishx on xperia; but as life goes, things take their time, and i got "stuck" (that honestly was my first thought) with my old oth. i unpacked it, the upgrade was smooth; btrfs did not complain. But what surprised me was the ui. Its popping! And fast! Apps actually start! Booting does not take forever anymore. the oth is actually a better experience than the jollac! And more important, the oth is a better product now than it was before! keep up the good work jolla youre up to something!
