At first, I thought "Damn, this is light" and only later realized the battery was still in the box. Well, even with the battery it still seems lighter than J1 despite this page giving contradicting measures.

The bigger size made me think of the jump with N9->Jolla... and yes I have small hands, so I'd say one handed use will be slipping more and more away. Not that big of a deal for me, personally. However, the power button is now below the volume rocker and that actually helps the one-handed use if you happen to use the button like e.g. double press.

The screen protector was a bit poorly applied. It had some air under it in two places near the front facing camera but I luckily managed to even those out. Speaking of the screen protector, was the thing supposed to be oleophobic coated? The protector feels sticky and collects fingerprints quite remarkably (and I do wash my hands regularly and try to keep my fingers tidy, thanks for asking)? Then again, so does my dirt cheap glass shield on J1. I will probably consider a Brotech or similiar glass if/when they become available.

The screen looks sharp. The UI and OS seem snappy (but so does J1 after every OS update). No LED while loading, does blink after full charge, one color + dimmer than before (miss the J1 LED already). No plastic squeaking/creaking while handled.

Charged the battery to full and it's already down to 96% (and now 95%) after a couple of minutes. Seems odd, but maybe it stabilizes after a couple of recharges.

I didn't really take that many photos with the J1 camera so I cannot say much about the photo quality... "nice" will have to do.

What else... fits better in my jeans pocket and doesn't feel like the corners are trying to rip through the fabric like with the J1.
