It’s not mentioned on the store page, but according to the accompanying form thread, the whole thing is based on a unspecified but “powerful” MediaTek SOC

Should be an 8000 series dimensity processor. Anything lower and it would not be much powerful.

I currently have a PinePhonePro and I’m happy that its the real linux experience in phone form factor, I’ve tried searching but couldn’t find a conclusive awnser.

Is sailfish linux in the sense that i can just change compile target and any linux program will work like on the PPP or is it “linux” in the sense that android is linux?

It’s somewhere inbetween. For the most part you have a standard Linux userland. The packaging format for example is just RPM. But the shells compositor can currently only properly display Android and qt apps. There has been some discussion at the last community meeting (where the devs answer questions) about improved Wayland support to change that, but that’s where we are.

Furtermore, for drivers and the like some Android blobs are used. There are therefore some Sailfish specific apis that you need to target for some of the functionality.

I pre-ordered, because I really like my C2. The new phone should be even better.

No eSIM, no go for me.

You could buy an E-sim converter and use that instead. If you really wanted to buy this phone.

I’ve never heard about sailfishos before. Are there any phones running it now? Also, forgive my lack of knowledge, but what’s stopping people from running it on their samsungs or whatever?

The whole thing does look interesting. Hopefully it picks up so that in 2 or 3 years when i’ll be shopping for a replacement to my pixel 8 I’ll actually have some good options.

SailfishOS has been around since 2013. It’s based on an even older Nokia project (from before they got bought and sold by Microsoft). Since then there has been a number of devices running it. In recent years that’s mostly been the Jolla C2, a rebranded low spec device by Turkish manufacturer Reeder, and certain Sony phones, such as the Xperia V III. The latter doesn’t ship with SFOS but you can purchase a €50 license and install it yourself.

There are also community ports that are unofficial and don’t have all the features (Android app support is missing for example) but run on some other devices. The problem in ARM world is that OS’s need to be tailored to the device (for the most part). It’s not like on intel or amd PCs. So if you want to run it on your Samsung or whatever, then you can do that. It’s just a lot of work.

I put my support down, thanks for letting me know, I was looking for something like this
