I guess so. To be fair, I saw Xperia X Compact in a shop just this last Saturday. It looked great and cost only £200, but it was a PAYG deal and probably SIM locked. I did not ask. I did not see any vanilla Xperia X, only on Amazon and eBay.

They are available off-the-self in finland too, in several different stores.

To be honest, I have been seriously considering it. For my daughter, not me. Any potential SIM lock can probably be overcome so that may not be an issue. But she does not like the square edges.

That's what I have been always saying. Sailfish would shine like a star on a small screen. Because, unlike Android, it does not need a big one.

Hi n950. was planning to upload photos of the phone but sailfish is totally waste of time. cant even copy a url from a upload servivice and paste in here. Im in such a bad mode and currently refuce to pick up iPhone or Android to do it. with shity saily OS. I recomend you dont buy this phone Go and buy a iphone, samsung or something!

guess I have to use a another device later to complete the task.

Sim locks can be unlocked but they are usually accompanied by a non-unlockable bootloader which cannot - that's what you need to check before buying one if you hope to get Sailfish on it.

I still think its a risky move for you to buy it.
