MWC2018 news
 

Hi

Saw this on Twitter today. Not entirely sure what this is, but I suppose more to come next week.

#Tau Technologies will be present at #mwc Mobile World Congress 2018.
In a partnership with #SailFish Alliance we will show our joint #IoT Gateway Solutions based on #RhoMobile and SailFish OS. You are welcome to visit our stands Hall 6 Stand 6H20 and Hall 5 Stand 5A41.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

They managed to miss-spell "Sailfish OS". I hope that's not indicative of the quality of their products.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Jolla Booth is sporting n Xperia XZ (TMavica corrects to XA2!) running sfos.

But wtf is the HMD Nokia 3 or 5 stripped of all branding doing there :D
Is that proof nokia and HMD having contact after all?

Tweet via Cybette

Press Conference is sheduled for 11:30, via SailfishOSNews

Re: MWC2018 news
 

It seem is Sony XA2

Re: MWC2018 news
 

They are also wearing Sailfish 3 t-shirts :)

Is there stream available from the event?

Re: MWC2018 news
 

I guess it's for people who can't buy discontinued X.

Seems like they were quite busy and got a lot planned for this year. I'm really looking forward to it.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

What have they planned for this year?

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Planned to kick your *** out

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Ok, looser. :D Sounds like an exiting year for you. Hope they have something more up in their sleeves.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Seems that the "low-end spec" and "feature phone" segments are the next battle ground in the market.

- Google has already been planning some stuff given Android Go
- Now apparently Jolla has managed to get some manufacturers to notice that Qt/QML is very light-weight and remainsl pretty fluid even on more modest hardware specs.

(Common: Next years feature phones' hardware specs won't be that much different from venerable Jolla 1's specs, and that smartphone can still run SFOS fluidly including a few android apps).

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Is this XA2 actually a better device than an X?

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Newer faster SoC, much bigger battery, rear-facing NFC reader/writer, rear-facing fingerprint sensor, marginally shorter.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

faster?

it is 14nm which is a nice process i mprovement, but at the end of tyhe day it is pitting A53 cheapo cores against A72 fulphat cores.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

hence it is 630 vs 650

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Wonder what this would be

Demo of Sailfish 3:

Re: MWC2018 news
 

And Adreno 508 vs 510

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Did anyone else notice the (new) Nokia 3310 with Sailfish on it at the bottom of the page at www.jolla.com/sailfish3 ?

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Re: MWC2018 news
 

If it would run on the new 8110, then that plus Gemini 4G would be an attractive combo for me.
(Though I'd still prefer Chens Lauta re-imagining.)

oh yeah, it is...

Exactly, I ran that already but is:

Qualcomm SDM630 Snapdragon 630 (Xperia XA2) better than Qualcomm MSM8956 Snapdragon 650 (Xperia X)?

and Adreno 508 (Xperia XA2) better than the Adreno 510 (Xperia X) ?

It also says:

Octa-core 2.2 GHz Cortex-A53 for the XA2
vs
Hexa-core (4x1.4 GHz Cortex-A53 & 2x1.8 GHz Cortex-A72) for the X

because:

The company (Qualcomm) has announced the Snapdragon 630, a successor to the wildly popular Snapdragon 625 (and little-used 626), along with the Snapdragon 660, a completely revamped and more-efficient sequel to the Snapdragon 650 (and 653).

Source: https://www.androidcentral.com/qualc...-660-platforms

It seems the 630 might be as good as the 650, but with much less power consumption and better LTE/Bt/Etc support and the 14mm construction which helps speeding things up whilst consuming less

Nokia 3310 with Sailfish OS, including WhatsApp

Re: MWC2018 news
 

"Video kann nicht abgespielt werden" ... :(

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Cool. I have been looking for a feature phone with WhatsApp support.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

with android back button :( meh.......

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Soo beautifull the Gemini PDA with SailfishOS. Very interested on it.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Me too. It looks an amazing device and look beautiful with Sailfish OS :D

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Yeah, that device looks awesome. I can trade my last Refund for a device like that. No problemo.

Can’t find much info regarding sailfish 3. Is that just a name for the same old or will it give new buyers a reason to buy it?

Hope it’s not a sailfish 2 all over again :D

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Yes, you have to prove you are speeking german to understand the advertisements....

But no loss, it is only (positive) german comments on the video posted one page earlier here.
Golem is a sell-off and rip off artist, but well distributed.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

The 3310 v2017 can be seen at the end of this video as well, after the Gemini PDA. I have no idea what the guy is saying, but it's still more footage of these two devices running Sailfish.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

I wonder, is it a real nokia hw or just some phone with the same form-factor? It's missing the NOKIA label?

Re: MWC2018 news
 

The SailfishOS 3.0 is True @Dave : ) A tons of new features are coming up, be ready. About ur refund if jolla not pay u , I pay u.

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Man, you should be head at Jolla! They need people like you badly :D

Re: MWC2018 news
 

Wonder if they use linux boot and not the Android boot mode
