I'm afraid I don't want a too small form factor too. Because Full HD or even 720p on a 4.7 screen make things a bit too small.
I think LG made something close to the ideal with the Nexus 5. Full HD, 70 mm width with very small bezel. The first time I hold it in hands, I was very surprised how compact to appear.
But I'm afraid a very small bezel would be inefficient with SOS. How would you minimize from the bezel when there's almost no bezel to swipe from?

According to this Jolla one is almost sold out:
http://www.digitoday.fi/mobiili/2015...n/201510349/66
And Jolla would announce something after Jolla One's are sold.
"–Myydään Jolla (One) loppuun, sitten kerrotaan jatkosuunnitelmista, Lassila sanoo."
Just words but my guess is that next Slush (http://www.slush.org/) should hopefully bring next news. It has been Jolla's venue so far so why not continue tradition?
I would personally prefer 5,5 display and as small edges as possible. Then phone would be smaller that Oneplus one and other competitors with 5,5 sized screen. This would be nice: https://thejollablog.files.wordpress...x380.jpg?w=767

After informing about price reduction a while ago Jolla is frantically looking for new partners around the world. The company’s co-founder and Head of Software Development, Marc Dillon says to the magazine that the company will soon deliver “big news”.
According to the magazine Jolla is opening in sales in Asia, probably in China. This would mean co-operation with at least one Chinese operator.
Instead, Jolla has no plans towards the United States [edit.note: according to the article].
Jolla phone’s back cover allows uploading additional features, such as image- and audio files, to the phone with switching the back cover. Jolla is also negotiating new co-operations in relation to these additional features.
Hey, guys you can try this free downloader for Android or IOS apk for Android or IOS apps, games, life, software to download.
Goodluck and hope it is useful to you guys, cheers.

I still don't get why people want small edges. I ask again: HOW can you minimize an app if you have to swipe from a non-existent edge?

With proper HW design Jolla could make world smallest 5,5 inch screen phone (or whatever size) because sailfish don't need buttons.
This could be used as competitive marketing advantage.

From aesthetics point of view no edges is better, from usability perspective I would prefer edges as well.
I prefer holding my thumb ready on the frontal display edge rather than the side edge.
Maybe battery life will decrease due to the display registering more started but not completed swipes when edges are non-existent?

The other problem I've had with thin bezels is that often typing keys near the edges like q or p do not register, especially on gesture based keyboards.

We should have options size wise - the best size for me is the N9. Sadly, I don't expect that Jolla will have the money to produce different variants to please everybody.

I don't think I'd want a mm bigger though, then again, I originally swore ~5" was my maximum, & that I'd never try/buy anything bigger, & before that my limit was even smaller.
