Maybe it is time to try Jolla as next phone:

Yes, I was checking this out! Sailfish with Android compat seems very compelling. The videos I saw on youtube showed a bit less polish than I'd prefer, but I'd be OK with that. But then I read up on the manufacturer they partnered with. Reeder, I believe? I ended up looking up some other devices they made and there seems to be build quality problems...I haven't seen reports like this for the Jolla C2, though, so I still might be tempted to purchase one just to see how it drives. Thanks for the recommendation!

Just a note for readers that the Jolla C2 cellular modem only supports European bands, so if you're in the US you're out of luck on that front until they release a new model.

Oh... I somehow missed this reading for 15 minutes through the site. Thank you!

I used it as my first phone some 10 years. I type this message on one. I like their perseverance, but the truth is it's declining in practical usability.

Edit: In EU, so (lack of) bands are not an issue for me.

Jolla is trying to release a new model in 2026: https://forum.sailfishos.org/t/next-gen-jolla-phone/23882

If there's enough interest in US, then they may release it there, too.

Sailfish supports a few Sony Xperia phones, https://docs.sailfishos.org/Support/Supported_Devices/

Name the price and the Chinese factory will make it for that price and turn profit. Want a phone for 10 USD? No problem dear!
