Well-deserved Retirement Plan for the Original Jolla Phone
The original Jolla smartphone from 2013 received an incredible number of 34 software updates during a lifetime of 7 years. The latest Sailfish OS update 3.4.0 will remain the last officially supported software release.
Jolla will continue to provide access to the official app store for the time being.
- Blog post by Jolla Captain Sami Pienimäki:

Ouch: "They [Apple] claim it's about privacy, but it's about profit. ... We are not fooled.
