I had the original Jolla phone back in 2014, it was quite a cool device.

Ultimately it suffered from a lack of apps, and the Android compatibility was functional but a bit janky. There was an incredibly good native WhatsApp app, untill WhatsApp killed it for not being official.

Hope they have some success with the new one

Not much has changed since then, unfortunately.

Fingers crossed for a 3.5mm headphone jack and expansion into the canadian market ๐Ÿคž

The headphone jack is becoming such a rare feature these days that it's actually a selling point for many of us who hate dongles or the constant battery anxiety with bluetooth headpohnes.

Not really FOSS, so... no thank you.
