Bored of Android or the iPhone? The latest upstart smartphone system, Sailfish, born within Nokia, is on sale now in the shape of the case-swapping Jolla phone.
The Jolla phone is available to buy now for 399 euros (about $545) in Europe, Switzerland and Norway. The 4G phone runs Sailfish OS, which started life as MeeGo — software that was briefly considered the future of Nokia before the company settled on Microsoft’s Windows Phone instead.
Jolla sports a 4.5-inch screen with a run-of-the-mill 540×960-pixel resolution, a dual-core 1.4GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, and 1GB of RAM. It also boasts an 8-megapixel camera with a 2-megapixel front-facing job for video chat, and 16GB storage. The back plate of the phone is called “The Other Half,” and you can swap in different plates in different colors — or even add a keyboard or e-ink screen.
