Despite the shortcomings presented in the video, I am still impressed by the OS overall, and the fact that the phone is so affordable really puts it on my list for the next phone tbh 😁

Also, the OS itself looks wonderful

    I love it. But this part on their website has me scratching my head:

    “Your purchase includes a 12-month Sailfish OS full license subscription valued at €59.88 (€4.99/month), granting access to all releases, commercial components, and feature upgrades. After the first year, you can choose to continue your subscription and support Sailfish OS development further. Even without renewal, your device will continue to function, but future software updates and commercial component upgrades will not be available.”

    So does this mean they will be cutting the security updates or just feature updares? Because cutting security updates after a year is a bit of a dick move.

    I get that you can always apply patches yourself but … it rubs me the wrong way.
