I have only 1 opinion/request:
Don’t give up on supporting a few existing consumer devices.
If that isn’t an option and I need to buy a (new) Jolla phone anytime in the future, I’d like to keep it affordable, like the C2 currently.
I have watched the development of a few independent devices over the years, and they always lag behind and/or are massively more expensive compared to feature-parity consumer devices. That’s just the nature of the game. Add to that wanting to manufacture nearby - let’s just say I take every “make it bigger/better” opinion with a massive grain of salt.
