Video: PocketNow on Jolla – What we love and What we don’t

5 days on, Michael Fisher gives their opinion on what they’ve come to learn about Jolla Phone powered by Sailfish OS.

Oddly they haven’t been given longer to play around with the device. On the upside, it meant that it seemed they focused quite a bit of time to get to know Jolla.

Whilst the love the new OS the attempt at gestures, I was disappointed that they found them difficult to understand. Even something like swiping from the edge to home (admittedly, I found N9’s implementation the easiest which has similarities). Reports about app functionality worried me too. We praised early reports of Android apps working without being rewritten but PocketNow say some of those apps just freeze and crash. Conversely we’ve seen comments from readers saying they are yet to experience such crashes on their Jolla devices.
