Sailfish OS fourth generation - Sailfish OS
sailfishos.org

I used to run it on my Xperia, and life was good. Then they announced a version for the Xperia 10 III, so I got hyped and bought the device. When the release came out, it lacks so many features and was riddled with bugs, so I never installed it. As of today (4.5.19), it seems the software still lacks basic features (ability to use the 3 cameras), and still has very annoying bugs (must use loidspeaker when in communication to prevent echo).

Am I misinformed ? Is anyone using it daily that could share their experience?

Thanks!

    I’m obviously biased as I’m a Jolla employee. But I am using Xperia 10 III as a daily driver. It’s possible to use all three cameras; there’s a patch which allows you to choose between the three cameras and the selfie camera. You don’t have to use the loudspeaker; the echo issue happens very rarely - the last time it happened to me was in June 2022, i.e. over a year ago.

    If you already have the device, why don’t you try it out yourself?

      Thanks for the feedback. I didn’t try it because I didn’t want to buy Sailfish OS (again…) just to end up with a broken phone, and rollback to android, especially as it breaks the warranty. I figured I could just wait for the next update for these issues to be fixed, but they never came and I simply did not bother getting the test image at this point.

      Would you have a link to the patch for the camera ?

        Hi, sorry I haven’t been active in Lemmy. No, I don’t work at Jolla any longer.
