INOI? OMP? I've no clue who these companies are without searching for them. Any personal experience? Are they quality? Are they like how Oppo and Xiaomi have embraced quality but at great prices?

It's good news that more devices are coming, albeit not in my market, but good nonetheless.

You are right they need traction and their name out there once that si sorted things should be better.

The devices are always in some way smoother and better tuned than community ports.

Cant said, that is true. FP2 feels much better and smoother than Jolla C

Short memory?

Inoi = "other" or "different"
OMP = ...follow the above link ;)

I do not recall seeing that. My concerns/questions remains. What will this mean to the layman?

And if I hear "soon", I'm entering into a murderous rage.

oh indeed, but I assume thats why these people are the paid professionals :P I'd love to learn how its done tbh, I've a feeling its a lot of polishing, rinse and repeat.

Re: Jolla at MWC 2017
 
XZ with sailfish :D I'm in.

edit: But I think that it has more to do with the fact that there are some ports for xperia so Jolla is trying BS marketing than that SONY will jion officially since their mobile division is not exactly in great shape.

edit 2: I'm glad that I was wrong.

If Sony is shipping now really with Jolla, i'm getting crazy. That would be a real milestone. And it would probably mean, that we are finally getting some good devices - not only a good OS.

Another announcement from Jolla today is it’s adding support for Sony’s Open Devices Program — meaning developers looking to run Sailfish on additional hardware will be able to choose from certain Sony Xperia devices in future. The Xperia X will be first in line to get support, and is being demoed by Jolla running Sailfish here at MWC.

Jolla says it’s aiming to release an official version of the Sailfish OS for a range of Sony Mobile’s Xperia devices “soon”. It last released a community device of its own making, the Jolla C, back in May 2016.

“For us it’s very important that we have a solid hardware partner to offer Sailfish devices to the market,” says Saarnio. “And Sony is the perfect partner for these kind of secure devices. For us it was too much to develop our own phone in an organization that is focused on software development, so I think this is a very good move from our side in that our developers can keep a proper device for Sailfish and use that. And why not our fans as well?”

Jolla says the Chinese consortium will be aiming to invest $250M in developing a Sailfish ecosystem for the country, though it’s not specifying exactly is backing the consortia at this point, nor over what timeframe the investment will happen — beyond saying one of its early investors, a local private equity investor Shan Li, will take a “leading role” in building it up.

“What we have been talking about is starting with the security phone area, so there are corporate and government use-cases where a secure mobile operating system is needed. That’s the first use-case that we are going to start implementing [with the China consortium],” he adds. “In addition to this I would say there’s lot of potential in other areas like TV, also IoT, smartwatches, maybe smart home areas. Those are areas which we, Jolla, did not enter into those areas — because our own resources have been so limited.
Sony Xperias are going to be next Community devices!! And maybe FINALLY SFOS will be secure?:)

"It's official, Sony Xperia X running Sailfish OS!"

Hopefully that means Sony Xperia X can be bought with Sailfish already installed!

And notice one tweet on the page:

@JollaHQ what do you mean devices. Do we just buy one Xperia and download official SFOS on it ?

I guess we shall have to wait and see if we are to put Sailfish on the device or will they come preloaded with Sailfish.

Q2/2017 - hopefully Sony X Dual will be supported, too, from the start.

So this means official support from Jolla including Alien Dalvik for (some) Sony devices.

For now, JollaFR video did only show native apps in appdrawer, sadly.

Here's the website for the Latin American device: http://accione.com/#/es/home

How are they still using screenshots from Sailfish 1.0? It even still says "Sonera" as the provider!

+1 but even with single SIM I would buy one if Sailfish runs on it with Alien Dalvik

would be great if they would support older hardware as well - would really like to have SFOS on my Z1 Compact :-)

That's real great news - if there just hasn't been that little *soon*(TM) in the announcement :cool:

Jedibeeftrix 2017-02-27 12:16

Re: Jolla at MWC 2017
 
does this explain the recent SFOS dev push to support 64bit Android.

and does this mark the official divergence of SFOS running on top of cyanogen to SFOS running on top of AOSP?
