    This Brand New Ubuntu Phone Goes on Sale Next Week: http://www.omgubuntu.co.uk/2015/06/bq-aquaris-e5-ubuntu-phone-details

    Would I be able to just pop in my O2/Three SIM and it will work right away?

    Update: From http://www.ubuntu.com/phone, "...includes an 8 megapixel camera, dual SIM and best of all, no network lock.".

    Looks delicious. Pretty reasonable money too. However, I wont be buying a mediatek based phone any time soon. The GPS on them is utter sh*t. Now it's rare that I use the GPS, but when I do, I have found it nothing but a source of frustration on my Jiayu G4S (weirdly I found it fine on the G4 that I had before this).

    Good to know... Funny enough gsp in my galaxy S4 used to be absolutely perfect (fix in 2-3s with FasterGPS set to Ireland), but recently something has changed in cyanogenmod and I'm considering buying a map and a compass instead ;-) The point is - maybe it's just the software?
