Commodore’s new flip phone runs Sailfish OS with 99% Android app support (Signal, Maps, Uber etc) but blocks browsers, social media and work emails at the OS level. Features a T9 keys, no popup notification preview outer screen (only shows the time, date, battery, and network signal), audio headphone jack, user swappable battery, and retro C64 games to reclaim your focus. What do you think?
@nixCraft Was excited to click on the link, but kind of disappointed with the execution. I want a minimalist phone, but I don't want it to be lacking basic modern niceties like a full keyboard. Also don't like a system that chooses how I use it. I would prefer to just be able to disable and delete services I don't want like when browsers or social media.
I do like the stuff like a headphone jack and FM tuner though. I miss that from my earliest Android phones. If it wasn't $500 I would try it.
