Volla Phone X in practice
-
While reading the forum Volla Phone X caught my attention. Ubuntu Touch out of the box sounds great :grinning_face: However I would like to ask how it performs in practice? How is the phone call quality? For how long last huge 6200 mAh battery? Is it possible to use it like a week on 1 charge? Plus screen 6.1 inch seems good, still slighty too big to be fully handy enough for small woman hands (4.7 - 5.1 inch would be better). However while looking at Fairphone 4, which I think is tablet thanks to 7.8 inch screen, Volla Phone X is definitely much more handy.

Fairphone 4 has 6.3 inchs screen, not 7.8.

Keep in mind the display resolution of the VP X is only 1560 x 720. The main camera has 13 + 2 MP. Sometimes perhaps not enough.

ok, so fairphone is not that huge, however Volla Phone X has the removable battery maybe and the killswitches?
-
@bluefroggie
No killswitches on VP no.
And obviously FP4 has a removable battery too.But FP4 do not already have a uTouch port even if no doubt it will be ported sometime.
Ah, and FP4 supports 5G, and don't have 3.5 jack like FP3 had or VPX has.

@bluefroggie Volla Phone X user here: I can go almost 2 days with one charge without stress. Everything works except vibration and notification LED. I'm really pleased about it.

This time on one charge is nice. What about battery itself in VPX? Is it removable? -
@bluefroggie No, since is a rugged phone and needs to withstand humidity.

I'm currently choosing which phone to get as my next daily driver (I have BQ Aquaries E5 since... 2016).
Do you have any new experiences to share about that phone?
Since Pine Phone Pro is still a developer version, Fairphone 4 not ported yet, and it does not have physical headphone jack... Not much to choose from
.Do you have any regrets so far? Maybe "X" version is "too big"? Though I like Idea for it to be sturdy, as I am probably gonna use it for long time too...
