Lengthy Preview from GSM Arena

Not exactly a glowing preview, they're not impressed with the specs for a start! -
Well, to be honest, the device is clearly more expensive compared to Android handsets with similar specs -- I've just bought an Android with similar specs and qwerty for around 150€, new (import from the US).
And you are kind of paying for the privilege of being a beta tester...
That said, I think this is one of the best (p)reviews of Jolla I've seen around. It's fair, it's detailed, it goes into each of the main applications pointing out cool stuff and important omissions. And they specifically marked it as a preview instead of a review.QWERTY fanboy: Nokia N900 (Maemo 5), Sony-Ericsson Xperia Pro (Android 4.0 ICS), Samsung Captivate Glide (Android 4.2 JB), Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G (Android 4.3 JB)
Still miss the awesomeness of the N900... -
For instance, honestly I have to say that I was expecting the software to be less beta-y.
I was thinking of buying one for a family member and keep my android qwerty while there's no qwerty toh, but it clearly isn't ready for that...QWERTY fanboy: Nokia N900 (Maemo 5), Sony-Ericsson Xperia Pro (Android 4.0 ICS), Samsung Captivate Glide (Android 4.2 JB), Samsung Galaxy S Relay 4G (Android 4.3 JB)
