"Most reliable and trusted operating system for your mobile device."
What do you like best about Sailfish OS?

Open-source applications and easy customizations are my favorite points while using sailfish OS. The user interface is fantastic and works smoothly on low-end devices. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sailfish OS?

The only thing I don't like about sailfish OS is availability. As of now, it only supports a few smartphones. I think they should customize it for more devices in the future so that everyone can take benefit from it. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"interesting Platform to escape the Apple/Google ecosystem"
What do you like best about Sailfish OS?

It is a perfect option for those who consider not depending on the Apple or Google Ecosystem.

The last version of the OS is really focused on delivering Security and privacy-caring features.

This is also 100% EU GDPR Compliant. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sailfish OS?

Since there is a like of vision for the future of the OS, the community stays really limited for now. This has an impact on the development of new apps in the store. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Best OS for open sourcing software"
What do you like best about Sailfish OS?

Sailfish OS is still the best counterpart of android. It is the most reliable and trusted operating system based on Linux. The best part is there are many open source software available for the OS. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sailfish OS?

It is only available for the mobile operating system. Notifications on sailfish os are sometimes not working while the screen is off. It is best if you don't like buggy android, but I think there are still many areas where sailfish os still needs to work hard. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

"Decent OP but maybe not for the average person"
What do you like best about Sailfish OS?

There are lots of great features that I feel other OS don't have as good a version of, such as the desktop. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Sailfish OS?

I am quite technical, but even for me it was quite difficult to get to grips with Sailfish because I think you need to have a very technical mind to utilise it to the max. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
