@@zelenicaljubljanica5410what's the details I heard russia will ban android for govt & phase out android for local populations like harmony os something
The user interface looks visually clean and nice and I think that's the only compliment I can give it. This looks like hell to use. Plus, paid, not open source, etc.
I've always loved the UI - it's the best part of the OS - it's way more intuitive and fluid than Android and designed to be used with just one hand. Unfortunately because you have to use finger-pokey Android apps for many things - Uber etc - that ruins the experience!
I paid £50 for it how is it ment to function if you dont pay its great to use ive had mine for several years we need to get away from the big tech companies robbing our data
It is VERY smooth to use especially for one hand use and pretty easy to learn. There is a free version of the OS available. Only Android App support and MS Exchange support for the mail app isnt free. It is mostly open source and every file on the system is accessable. Mostly only the paid things and the GUI are not open source. Anything else is.
The fact that Sailfish Os/phone is still not available means that it's very difficult to get an Os to the mainstream. I will really like to see and use Sailfish Os and Huawei's NextOs.
It's not actually anything to do with the kernel. I don't know how their compatibility layer works but it'd either be a virtual machine or just getting the Android userspace tools to run in a sandbox or something. I mean heck even windows could run Android apps before Microsoft killed off the Android subsystem
@@lightningx10 that had a emulation layer tho cuz that was running the arm version of android apps. this doesnt need to do that cuz its all arm64 code it just needs the virtualization aspect
They need to update those icons, they really look aoutdated, no need for boring flat design material you like, but theres room for design improvements.
I am very suspicious of all of the European-only phones and mobileOSes. I suspect that they must be doing something underneath that would be illegal (or at least carry serious liability issues) if sold in the USA.
Generally, that’s a hardware issue. EU has different cellular and broadband frequency standards. The antennae in European phones are built for that, not the US standards. If you bought an EU phone and shipped it to the states, it would work fine, just slow as hell and spotty at best.
@@Banilla468 Okay, but it's still suspicious. Nokia made itself the biggest phone maker on Earth by selling to the US market. These companies have been in business for years now, while totally refusing to sell to a huge market of potential American customers who are craving a phone to guarantee their privacy. It just doesn't add up.
EU does not have a different broadband, US does, the whole world and eu are on the same page, plus it plays no role after 4g and 5g and gsm and 3g are to be shutdown soon anyways
@@voinea12 Yes, it would be nice to have a 100% open source phone that fully works and is not as awkward to use as Android, but in the meantime I think Sailfish may be a good compromise.
@@gamagama69 All the alternatives together have a ridiculously low market share compared to stock Android and iOS. Most people just don't care enough. I still prefer to have a true Linux system on my phone even if 98% of phone users may not even know what Linux is. :)
Nuce to see people with lower sub shows up on my yt home page. Especially with the content i am interested in. Good job youtube.
I have low subscribers too
There are a couple of SFOS people around making videos. Me too for instance with a whole playlist for SFOS.
Who is the Carrier what SIM card do you use
The UI reminds of the Frutiger Aero days.
Yeah especially with the background, those water drops are so nostalgic man
Sailfish OS is still around? Man, it has been ages since I heard it
Yeah, it's pretty much alive (it had it's ups and downs, partially because of the Russian involvement). Version 4.6 should be released in a few weeks.
the Russian offshoot Aurora OS is seeing a ton of development now.
@@zelenicaljubljanica5410what's the details
I heard russia will ban android for govt & phase out android for local populations
like harmony os something
@@zelenicaljubljanica5410 ...yes, probably ways to spy and enprison there own population!...🤡
I wish MeeGo OS would just make a comeback... would love to use Nokia N9 nowadays, perfect size
Exactly bro the old Nokia N9 Mee go os was op with much advance ui , with comfortable size phone
I wanted a Linux phone but the Pine phone was using a very old processor and so I sacked the idea, how did you flash Sailfish OS to this phone?
No good map app? Here Maps is pretty sweet

So is this still the phone you're using?
I wonder if banking apps are working with this OS...
Some do (if you use Alien Dalvic / Android App Support and MicroG), some don't. It depends on the apps of the banks.
How can be Linux phone if running android apps and other things
Android is Linux too
@@camilo1623 is not fully linux os ,
android based on linux

Closed source partly: so no way to validate any claims on security. No go.
Subbed for this type of vid. Tired of Apple & Google…
Nice vid

Salfish Os seperti WUBUNTU.. WUBUNTU linux bisa installasi Drivers Windows 😅
*WOW*

still can't understand why not just use degoogled android
There's people out there, me included, that would rather go back to a flip phone than to use any form of Android 😀
@@n900video why though?, what about an unfortunately hypothetical fully open source phone(that isn't shit)

i mean thats why mobile linux has less than a 1% market share. custom roms are just a better option
