Hi, I would like to buy a Jolla C. I had a Jolla 1, but it was very slow. I also have an Xperia XA2, but I would like to have a Jolla. Is the Jolla C the most powerful of the Jolla? Is there much difference between Jolla 1 and Jolla C?

Thank you very much for reading me.

No doubt you have already seen this video?

Jolla C may have more RAM than Jolla 1 but as basically "Intex AquaFish" with plastic screen and non-availability of case to protect it will soon show signs of wear in use. It served purpose as a "developer's device" at the time, but now more a collector's item.

All that and the difference on the LTE bands

Thank you, so, do you recommend me to buy an Aqua Fish instead of a Jolla C?

What prices are these two phones currently in the second hand market? Is it very difficult to find them for sale?

No.
Afair the Jolla is in general a cheap AquaFish device from India branded Jolla.
The Jolla1 was some self-designed HW made in China.

I was quite happy with the JollaC for a long time and if you take care of the device it may serve you easily 2-4 years. Still have a full-time used and new one. 4G frequencies are not perfect for Europe/US but 2G/3G work.
Jolla1 has only 1G memory and is not suitable for running Android applications. But if you do not need Android it is the 'better' device, more handy, robust screen, no 4G.

I hope I got it right. Else someone may correct, please.

Thank you very much for your answer. It seems that the two phones (Jolla C and Aqua Fish) are almost identical. So, it seems that the important factor to buy a mobile or another is the price, right?

The positive point of Jolla C is the availability of 4G in Europe, from what I see. Although I will not use the phone with SIM.

Are the Jolla C and Aqua Fish screens plastic?

Are there no covers for either phone?

Sorry for my bad English.

Exactly.
JollaC screen is plastic and had a protector (badly needed) on when delivered.

Cover I do not know as I never ever use a phone with that make-bulky-stuff. But one of the multiple general purpose covers will fit. Just search according to the phone size (or maybe here on TMO or TJC).

No, as although used AquaFish for several years it was "Jollafied" to make it behave as Jolla C for update purposes (apart from hardware frequency differences) courtesy of Coderus adapted image which not even sure if is still available.

It would seem that OP has been offered both choice of Jolla C and AquaFish upon TJC:

Hi, thank you all very much. I bought an Aqua Fish. The Jolla C was much more expensive and did not compensate for the expense.
