Can you test the quality of the display, outside in sunlight?

Well done Marcus! We are learning more about the Jolla phone from you than Jolla itself.

After watching the video it seems that the maps are cloud based (both maps and navigation routing) and require internet connection both for maps data and navigation… :(

Can someone confirm if you need internet connection for maps data/navigation or if it’s fully offline like on the N9 (download maps data per country and offline navigation)?

It’s really beautiful.
My thoughts just watching the videos:
- being able to simply load and execute Android apps let me really quiet about the fact I can find most used apps
- interface it’s really different from traditional one, and sometimes remember me BB10 that I tested and discarded a couple of months ago. But appear also to be really clean and I’m sure with just a short learning will be all easy
- sometimes appear to be a bit slow especially in the gyroscope usage
- Maps are perfect
- Want to look more at calendar features

I’m waiting for the next preorder to be opened, hopefully also in my country!
