Had the original Jolla, used it for three years. It was fun, it focused much more on touch gestures before that became a feature with iOS/Android. Ultimately I relied a lot on Android apps which didn't integrate well. I also had some hardware issues and had two replacements, I think it was battery related issues both times, but I'm not sure anymore, it's been 10 years.
