This.

Since Android and iPhone came onto the mobile phone landscape, consumers have fallen into the trap of a smartphone arms race - seeing who has the biggest screen, most CPU cores etc.

With Jolla (and the Nokia of old) it is not just about specs - it's about everyday use. Jolla is brilliant at this. And there is so much clever and smart design in the Sailfish OS. It is a joy to use.

For example, how do fancy, fast LTE modems on a phone help, when often I will need a good EDGE modem for everyday usage?

In my country, South Africa, I ended up paying R4500 (Rands) for my Jolla phone. Compare this to the price of a Samsung, Sony or iPhone, which cost at least R9500 to R11000!
