    Yep... looks like this is true indeed as they've switched from Android to Sailfish OS.

    For the uninitiated, Turing Phones were the ones with the "Liquidmorphium" liquid metal alloy that promises to be tougher than steel.

    First link is the announcement from this morning. Second link is the website for Turing - which has yet to be updated with the newly announced Sailfish portion(s).

    Of things talked about here which are not talked about as nicely anymore... or at least how I used to remember this community, this is some good news.

    if I go down the route of needing a new mobile, this rises near the top of that listing.

    Does anybody license PureView?

    Great news. Unfortunitly the jolla news was not full refund so I won't spend a cent on Jolla until they fully refund all supporters.

    And I suggest you do the same! They can TAKE OUR MONEY but they can't take OUR FREEEEDOM!

    thats great! apart for the 5.5 inches screen. but i appreciate the direction and the strategy of licensing could just work.

    Great news and truly looks amazing! Probably the best HW so far running sailfish.

    However there are 2 aspects I will concern if I will buy it:

    - Non-removable battery. They seem advertising strong and robust build quality and material, but it not useful if the battery degenerates and can't be removed. (unless dissassembled, of course, then it won't be easy to find battery replacement.)

    - Lack of SD expansion (or am I missed that? I did not see it)

    But it really looks promising, that is THE DEVICE we are waiting for!

    Removable battery on Jolla was also unlike, since you couldn't buy (original) batteries for it at all...
