@logidroidfx @JollaHQ Batch 1 sold out on December 8, so if you ordered in March that would be quite back in line. You're likely in the first regular production batch that started on March 2. You have to be patient and wait a little. I doubt customer service will be able to do anything about it.

@JollaHQ Hello I would like to understand just because I placed pre-order on March 4 so logically I am one of the first right ? If so, I haven't received a link and no return from my customer service email. 🤔

@_segfau1t_ @DaveHammon12948 @GrapheneOS @Diana_European i rooted for SailfishOS improvement, and GrapheneOS felt need to bring irrelevant points, i just don't like their hostile behaviour, like wdym you are in random thread talking why GrapheneOS is better, like i don't care op didn't mention security.

Did not expect Texas of all places to have European-style electrical rationing in hotel rooms. Also, a bit of a critical design oversight when the hotel chain aggressively pushes digital keys.

@SpacemanZients @de_brigantia @NoahKingJr Graphene is still Android so not really a different OS. Sailfish is a real Linux system. For most people who want to stay on Android but be more secure Graphene seems to be the better choice. For Android haters like me SaifishOS is the only alternative.

@AndroidAuth Interesting phone but as Ib seeing negatives relating to SailfishOS, it will be a pass. It's a step in the right direction for user-control Android phones. I'll stay with my Skyline phone until something better comes around. (I'm not using Play services btw)

@SCShipyards If the US had the means to use some data to track an enemy vessel and deliberately ignored this information, it would not be chivalrous but unbelievably stupid. In war the last thing you want is a fair fight.

@SCShipyards If the US did use that exercise data to track down and target that vessel then that would be behavior that in most any other context would be frowned upon by the international community including by the US itself when it's not the one taking such action

@JollaHQ @GrapheneOS said most of the problem this phone has. Sadly it doesn't seem to solve the problem for privacy. Sailfish seems to be trash, sorry. x.com/GrapheneOS/sta…
GrapheneOS@GrapheneOS

SailfishOS has very poor privacy and atrocious security. The portions of the OS they make themselves are largely closed source. It's a massive regression from the privacy and especially security of the Android Open Source Project even without the major GrapheneOS improvements. It's strange to see it marketed based on using open source code as the foundation for building it when they don't open source a huge portion of their own code. Android Open Source Project is a complete OS that's open source. SailfishOS user interface and application layer is largely closed source. SailfishOS doesn't provide anything close to bare minimum privacy and security patches. It lacks many important standard privacy and security protections. Bringing a desktop software stack with much worse privacy and security to mobile but while having much worse updates than a lot of Android OEMs do for similarly priced devices is hardly progress. Their Android compatibility layer is insecure and not a safe way to run Android apps. It also has very poor compatibility in practice anyway. Jolla worked with the Russian government from 2015 through 2023 and Russia took a large share of the ownership in the company. In 2023, they used a sketchy bankruptcy restructuring to drop Russian ownership of the company. Regardless, they had no problem working with them before. Russia has a state-owned fork of SailfishOS called AuroraOS. It isn't possible for others to do the same since it's not open source. European values apparently mean closely working with Putin for 8 years after initial the invasion of Ukraine. It's a strange way to market it based on their choices and history. It isn't what they claim it is in their marketing and we strongly recommend against using it. They've chosen to very actively mislead people about GrapheneOS because they feel very threatened by it so we have no problem saying what we think about it. We used to keep quiet since it's simply not very relevant.

Four days at MWC Barcelona. The show has exceeded all our expectations. Two weeks ago we were in hackdays. This week we showed devices at world premiere with new software arriving from our Tampere team every single morning, flashed fresh each day. The full story is in this fortnight's community newsletter. Worth a read. 👇 forum.sailfishos.org/t/sailfish-com… Thank you to everyone who has been part of this. Keep sailing. ⛵ #Jolla #SailfishOS #MWC2026 #DigitalSovereignty #CommunityPowered #PrivacyFirst

Lol, no it's not. @grok explain how GrapheneOS, while it does use ASOP, is not simply rebranded android. Highlight some of the prominent security and privacy features their devs have painstakingly implemented, how they've gutted the google nonsense, and locked down the OS. Also talk about memory tagging, application isolation, etc., which only exists on a handful of ASOP based OSs.

@japtain__cack @AndroidAuth I see Sailfish as "secure enough" for me and everyone I know and it's not just another rebranded Android. But if someone is happy with Android then indeed Graphene may be the better alternative, even if I watched enough Louis Rossmann to never want to use it myself 😄

I'm not dead set on avoiding ASOP to the point of using something less secure. I use GrapheneOS, and Sailfish is far from competing with GrapheneOS in terms of security/privacy. However, I love the idea, hopefully Sailfish will become more mature in the future. I would love a Linux based phone.

SailfishOS is NOT a serious mobile OS for privacy or security. The marketing says one thing. The architecture says another. SailfishOS markets itself as open and privacy-respecting but the components Jolla actually builds are largely closed source. Independent researchers cannot audit the most security-critical code in the system. Android has enforced SELinux in strict mode since Android 5.0 in 2014. SailfishOS relies on basic Linux file permissions and namespace-based isolation via Firejail. Until Sailfish OS 4.0.1 Koli in 2021, there was no application sandboxing framework; apps essentially ran under basic Unix permissions with no Sailjail‑style isolation. For nearly a decade, any native app could freely access your phonebook, SMS messages, and other apps' files. The current Sailjail implementation: a Firejail wrapper using Linux namespaces -- is weaker than Android's kernel-level SELinux-enforced process isolation or iOS's entitlement system. Jolla relies on old Android board support packages to run Sailfish on hardware like Sony Xperias - meaning the underlying Linux kernels are often ancient and missing years of upstream CVE patches. The attacker doesn't need to break a sandbox if the kernel itself is full of known vulnerabilities. Installing SailfishOS on Sony Xperia devices as the primary supported hardware requires permanently unlocking the bootloader. That means no verified boot chain. The attacker with brief physical access can flash a malicious image that persists across updates. SailfishOS uses standard LUKS-style disk encryption - so with an unlocked bootloader the attacker can extract the LUKS header and brute-force short PINs or passwords offline. Jolla has been working on migrating the Sailfish browser to Gecko ESR 91 - but ESR 91 itself has long since reached end of life, and current Firefox ESR versions are multiple generations newer. Mozilla's current ESR track is ESR 128. The Android runtime security patch level on official Sailfish devices has lagged Google's monthly patch cycle by months, and some older devices are even further behind. Running Android apps "without Google services" does NOT mean without telemetry. The AppSupport compatibility layer does NOT block app trackers. Advertising analytics, data collection, background connections all pass through unfiltered. And the layer itself is entirely closed source -- which means you cannot verify its isolation guarantees. The compatibility layer also has poor app compatibility in practice. Many Android apps don't work correctly without Google Play Services. Because SailfishOS is largely proprietary, no one else can fork it the way Russia did with Aurora OS. Russia got a state-owned fork. Then there's the ownership history. Rostelecom, partially owned by the Russian state acquired a 75% stake in Open Mobile Platform and Votron - entities that held the largest individual shareholding in Jolla through Sailfish Holding. From 2018 to 2023, Russian state-linked capital was the single largest influence in the corporate chain behind SailfishOS. Russia got Aurora OS through commercial licensing and state ownership of the entities behind Jolla. Because SailfishOS's critical components are proprietary - no one else has that path. After the invasion of Ukraine made this politically untenable - Jolla used a bankruptcy restructuring in 2023 to sever ties. Years of closed-source code developed under that ownership structure cannot be independently verified. "European values" is an interesting marketing angle given that history. "True sovereignty" and "European technology" also needs context. The Dimensity 7100 SoC is designed by MediaTek in Taiwan and fabricated in China. The silicon supply chain is identical to any mid-range Android phone. If you care about mobile privacy and security, @GrapheneOS on a Pixel is the verified, open source, properly patched standard.
NXT EU@NXT4EU

Jolla from Finland has sold their first 10.000 of their new Sailfish OS phone that doesn't use Android. It is the first mobile os that is fully European, yet still lets you download Android apps with Jolla AppSupport. Europe is making progress 🇪🇺

@KanDeegan @GrapheneOS @AndroidAuth Graphene have been out on a FUD campaign for anything that's not Graphene so one has to take what they write with a pinch of salt. I see the Jolla Phone as "secure enough" for most applications (LUKS, sandboxing, can disable AAS) but "ultra secure" seems indeed to be nonsense.

@brian_the_lover I think you're kinda missing the point here. This Linux-based phone's main advantage is that it runs SailfishOS instead of Android, so if you want to run Android instead of Linux it's of course 100% obvious it's better to buy an Android phone regardless if it's cheaper or not. 😆

China and Europe are introducing new regulations that will require cars to have physical buttons instead of just touchscreens. They believe car controls must be "blind-operable" for important functions and that touchscreens can be a safety risk on the road.
