I first bought a Linux phone in 2014 when Ubuntu announced a phone by BQ, a Spanish company. The 4.5 was what I had been waiting for. It served me well for 10 years. But Ubports announced that they were pushing forward with Ubuntu, and that meant ditching 16.04 for 20.04. My original phone could not perform this function. It was stuck at 16.04. So I had to find another option.
So I bought a Pine Phone. Unfortunately, I was waiting for the Pine Phone to put 20.04 Ubports (Ubuntu) on the Pine Phone, but after 3 years waiting, I gave up. It still has not been achieved.
Then, whilst I was looking at the UB Ports website, I noticed another phone, a Volla phone, which had everything Ubuntu had. The X23 phone seemed like the best, given that I would want to keep this phone for another 10 years, so I bought it for 538 Euros. It was just after I bought it that I discovered that it was delayed until August. So I waited 2 months.
Then, in August, it arrived. I was impressed by the phone. It was rather thick and heavy basically, because it had military style waterproofing and dustproofing, whilst at the same time, it had a replaceable battery. It had all the hallmarks of a modern phone, the 48 megapixel camera, a large display, dual SIM cards, plus, of course, Ubuntu Touch. It is blisteringly fast. You can order it with Volla’s own OS (operating system), but I wanted it with Ubuntu Touch. I also bought a screen protector and a cover for the phone.
