The iphone minis sold in the millions. It might be a failure for Apple level sales but most companies would be more than happy with that.
The problem is that there is no small (sub 5,5”) phone available anywhere afai can tell. ZERO choice. There are even blackberry clones around. But zero small phones.
Thank you for the update. The phone looks slick and vibrant! I am glad that it isn’t as narrow as the 10 III. Woudn’t a smaller notch be better? Or the opposite, stretched to the sides? Or is that technically problematic?
Looking forward to the phone!
I really hope Threema can get access to camera with Jolla 2 so I don’t need a second device anymore.
It’s impossible to satisfy everyone, so this medium size is the most wise.
Besides, after a while people get accustomed to this size. Jolla already explained in the announcement of the poll that modern phones are used differently compared to the past.
Let’s welcome this new device, even with notch.
But Apple can sell a microfiber cloth in millions given that the have the market pretty much.
Again, I don’t think the reason is that companies are not aware that a small phone will sell to an extend, but the problem is probably ROI compared to a much larger phone.
But you haven’t because if you ask an amount of people what a big phone or a small phone mean for them, the amount of different answers you get will probably correlate to the number of how many times you asked the question.
I loved my N900 but would I like to go back to that screen size? Definitely not.
On the other hand, the size of the C2 is by far too large for me. So what is big and what is small. I can’t even answer this question really for my own.
There have been several suggestions for wireless charging add-ons, but we need to reach 10k pre-orders before Jolla commits to design for The Other Half. (TOH is a concept from the first Jolla phone, where modules can be easily attached to the phone to get additional functionality.)
IPhone mini is dead, Xperia compact too…
When you say the mini was sold in millions, maybe or maybe not.
Even if, the big IPhones sold in BILLIONS since the last mini (13)
Times chance, taste changes and preferences too.
To stick to your own analogy, car drivers have no 1.5 Meter stiring wheel but entire dashboards made of screens.
Sorry to say, but you’re the minority in your opinion!
So please stop your rant, buy a Nokia 3210 (which has a smaller screen than 5.5 inch) and let the majority, including me be happy with Jolla gives us.
Thank you.
The total disregard for ergonomics is something i will shit on for the rest of my life the same way i shit on anything unscientific (from antivaxxers, conspiracy theorist to flat earthers,), anything poorly engineered, non human centered design, and many more that make things not as good as they should be.
