Thanks for the news!

Yes and no.
Jolla could also innovate in sustainability field, just by using a most common/easy to find battery type.

Thanks for the update @Jolla.
I can say most I read is good.
And of course there have compromises to be made. On my side I can say, use the best components you get for the best price. But when a 6.5 display makes the phone cheaper to a dispaly with 6, I’m in. And please no double tap. That’s ancient by a security perspective

Thanks for the clarification.
Ok, it’s not a fully custom designed PCB.
Everybody will have to make compromises in any cases.

I’m using the XA2 3.5 jack every day, everywhere. Car, kitchen, workshop…
The need of an adapter everywhere is, for me, more cumbersome then a slightly bigger phone, but well, that’s life.

If the sacrifice is too high to include a jack into the phone, it would perhaps be fun to include some (not 2, but 5!) adapters in the package, just as a wink.

Just an idea… :–)

Before you release a new Next Gen, take care of the 10V first… This is just money-making! Mafia

What do you want with Next shit Jolla Phone… Saifish OS doesn’t even work on the Xperia 10V… and other devices… Only money-making… and the 10v can be sold…

not nice what jolla is doing there…………money ….money…..

I’m using 3,5mm jack in car too. So if the new Jolla Phone will have only one USB-C and not 3,5mm jack, I hope that the USB-C will last fully functional for a long time. On my almost 7 years old Redmi 5 Plus (with SFOS), the microUSB connector is still usable for charging but when I connect USB flashdrive or USB memory card reader, the phone with it must be placed on the table without any movement because the connector is no longer as strong and the USB device tends to disconnect in the OS. But maybe USB-C is better than microUSB, I don’t have experience with it.

And there will be one limitation - not possible to charge phone and use 3,5mm jack at the same time without special adapter (which can be bought cheaply on Ali).

This. One reason some of us suggested a second USB port in the first Next Gen thread.

You’re frustrated with the lack of progress re newer Xperias. I totally get that, it has taken waay too long.

But wouldn’t it be good if Jolla had a revenue stream to pay for people working on the OS and its adaptation to the hardware?
