Jolla preview: First look

 

Jolla probably doesn't ring any bells to you, but for fans of the MeeGo platform it's a synonym for the Second Coming in the smartphone world. In case you're scratching your head, Jolla is founded by former Nokia employees in 2011...

Jolla Smartphone Review

 

What's unique about the Jolla smartphone is that it is powered by Sailfish OS – a new platform based on the now-forgotten MeeGo operating system. The software is capable of running Android apps and it its user interface relies heavily on gesture-based...

Nice design ; Usable daytime photos

The phone is too expensive for what it delivers ; Lack of software availability ; Android support isn't reliable ; Mediocre display ; OS still has some bugs ; Gesture-based navigation takes lots of getting used to ; The “Other half” concept is nothing...

If Jolla's goal was to craft a phone that's unlike any other, then it has definitely succeeded. Its first Sailfish OS device has a fresh, distinctive design that might grab the attention of anyone looking for something that's, well, different.

Hands-on at MWC 2014: We check out the Sailfish OS phone

If you're out for a bargain phone, the Jolla Phone is not it. You also need to be prepared to bed into the way Sailfish OS works. However, what we have here is a phone that's genuinely different, from a company that has an unusual, small-scale approach...

Jolla smartphone review - average hardware is too expensive

 

Jolla is a new company on the smartphone scene, setup by ex-Nokia employees. They've created their own mobile operating system and the self-titled smartphone is the first device to come with this new player and rival to iOS and Android.

Jolla smartphone review

 

The Jolla, in case you haven't heard of it, is a smartphone from a team of ex-Nokia employees. It's pronounced yol-la, and the device runs on a 'new' operating system called Sailfish. We say that because Sailfish is based on another mobile OS called...

The Jolla is an interesting new smartphone with its eye-catching Sailfish OS. However, it's too expensive for the average hardware on offer, a confusing interface and a reliance on Android apps. You're better off getting the superior Nexus 5 and saving...

Jolla Smartphone Review

 

There are many smartphone manufacturers and OS platforms available in the market. Yet if you are looking for something different to experience then new Jolla smartphone, created by ex-Nokia engineers, could become your choice running on Sailfish OS....

Fresh and innovative OS, supports most Android apps, NFC-enabled rear shell, decent camera

Unfamiliar gestures, uncomfortable to use with one hand

We can only recommend this phone to buyers switching from a feature phone to a smartphone. For others there are better options such as Micromax Canvas Knight and Asus ZenFone 6.

Jolla smartphone review: On an alternative path - The Times of India

 

Is the Jolla phone a good alternative when it comes to real world use?

- Fresh approach to UI ; - Good camera ; - Android app support

Jolla has good potential but in its current form it is still far from becoming a viable, mainstream smartphone platform.
