For reference, here is a quick size comparison with some of our favorite phones:

Not too bad, considering the features and screen size.

"Favorite"? Two of the five I have not even heard of. Two more I have heard but never seen. Some "favorites", heh

And not an N9 or Jolla 1 in sight

This is getting ridiculous. You really care about such things? Seriously?

One big advantage of hardware keys over virtual ones was completely missed in marketing/press releases/reviews IMO.

I just now was not able to operate my XA2 because my finger and phone where to cold

(admitted, not everyone has a walk in freezer and spends time sorting in it...)

Also chen confirmed to me that ALT+TAB would switch apps so i miss that detail also to wow the geeks.

The initial question was if we are ready for this beautiful device, the actual question should be when are we going to have SFOS running on it?

well, if these geeks were geekish enough, they would know that android supports this by default. I can plug a USB keyboard to my xperia z5c (android 7) right now via OTG cable and it will work (I'm completely on stock, no Lineage, no Cyanogen, no nothing). Why shouldn't it work on android 9?

What's more important, if this thing have AMOLED and if there will be a Sailfish port, then we might probably have LPS (low power screen, aka Always-On-Display) from N9 back... I guess

Would be interesting if iOS could be ported to this device. Would be fun to run garage band!
