Verdict

The Jolla Tablet is a 7.85-inch device featuring a sharp 2048 x 1536 IPS 'retina-class' display and a unique gesture-based Sailfish OS 2.0. Under the hood, it is powered by a 64-bit 1.8GHz quad-core Intel Atom Z3735F processor paired with 2GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage, expandable via microSD up to 128GB. Main characteristics include a minimalist design with a 5MP rear camera, a 2MP front camera, and a 4,450mAh battery. The tablet is primarily praised for its smooth multitasking, privacy-focused open-source software, and the ability to run many Android applications through emulation. However, it suffers from limited native app availability, a slightly creaky build quality in some units, and lack of common modern features like a notification LED or fingerprint sensor.
