Sailfish OS fourth generation - Sailfish OS
sailfishos.org

I used to run it on my Xperia, and life was good. Then they announced a version for the Xperia 10 III, so I got hyped and bought the device. When the release came out, it lacks so many features and was riddled with bugs, so I never installed it. As of today (4.5.19), it seems the software still lacks basic features (ability to use the 3 cameras), and still has very annoying bugs (must use loidspeaker when in communication to prevent echo).

Am I misinformed ? Is anyone using it daily that could share their experience?

Thanks!

    I daily drived the original Jolla Phone. However since I realized that it was even more proprietary (the core apps + UI toolkit Silica is proprietary) than a simple AOSP Android ROM, I decided that my next phone would be a regular Android phone again.

    Now I’m dual-booting both postmarketOS and CalyxOS (which is an Android ROM) oh my SHIFT6mq and I have no reason to ever go back to SailfishOS, even though I liked the experience at the time.

    I’m obviously biased as I’m a Jolla employee. But I am using Xperia 10 III as a daily driver. It’s possible to use all three cameras; there’s a patch which allows you to choose between the three cameras and the selfie camera. You don’t have to use the loudspeaker; the echo issue happens very rarely - the last time it happened to me was in June 2022, i.e. over a year ago.

    If you already have the device, why don’t you try it out yourself?
