My personal impression of "all the things that need fixing" on the Jolla phone is that this is developing a life of its own and becoming an urban legend.

I have to use the Android phone my company dictates for work, so I use the Jolla phone weekends and evenings and the Samsung MO-FR during daytime.

Comparing the two on a daily basis makes me a lot more forgiving towards the little glitches Jolla still suffers from. There's exactly two real bugs in Sailfish at this moment (browser links and wifi issues) that I have to work around and fortunately can work around easily. Everything else is cosmetical, nice to have enhancements that take time and that Android sure didn't offer during its first year. At the same time, I find myself re-booting the Samsung phone because its keyboard gets stuck again, calling it names because of the idiotic behaviour of the front button and the strange settings logic, or finding that yet again I cannot perform an operation the way I want because only sailfish can.

What I want to say is that yes, Jolla does have its issues but no, it's not the only company on the market that delivers less than 100% perfect phones. (I'd never touch an Apple product, but I hear that they have issues, too.) And in direct comparison, the small boat from Finland does a lot better than one would expect - I'd rather use my Jolla all day long than take the Samsung to work.
