The mobile market is already filled up with bundles of latest and greatest smartphones. The Features and day-to-day use applications have been designed for the ease of users. So in this atmosphere, Ubuntu touch has to perform outstandingly to be noticed by most of the advanced users.
Ubuntu Touch phone includes all the features that we’ve available in the mobile market today (which is plus point) but honestly speaking the phone lacks applications. Yes. Due to a completely new Operating system in the market, It takes time to develops applications that users need. To battle with the giant companies out there, Applications are arms. Although, applications development is running and recently we’ve seen some of the popular and one of the most used applications, have been made available for Ubuntu Touch, Telegram, for example.
Ubuntu Touch is Unlocked
The Aquaris E4.5 Ubuntu Edition is dual SIM and completely unlocked so consumers can use it with their current network. Operators such as 3 Sweden, amena.com in Spain, giffgaff in the UK and Portugal Telecom are offering SIM bundles at purchase for buyers in those regions.
