It seems I'll need to buy a new phone is some more or less distant future, so I'd like to gather the opinions.

Suppose your old N900 is bricked. Which one would you choose and WHY? Don't forget the price differences

If I could afford it I would buy Neo900. It seems to be very interesting. For my taste N900 is too old, Jolla is too big and too problematic and Neo900 could be really nice.

Definately neo900 as you like the n900 as it can work the way you want on the other hand jolla can be your daily driver from day 1 without much fuss .
i rather suggest neo900 a cheap smartish phone as a daily driver as its what i see most people do

I'd replace it for another N900 for the time being.

Neo can't be considered cheap...

There should be some decent Sailfish ports to Android phones, soon ... I'd go that route personally. I own a Jolla, and even assuming that Sailfish was perfect, the device itself is far from.

Get a cheap used N900!
First: you have to flash it and it feels superfast (when compared to your current

).
Second: it is cheap
Third: you seem to not know what you want yet
Fourth: you will get some time to decide going the Neo or Jolla way
...
Last: you stay with us!

Need more?
