I like the idea, but I have major problems with their inclusion of Meta-owned WhatsApp. Any company which cares about privacy should throw WhatsApp into a volcano. That said, I understand why they include it as much of the world uses it as the default for some reason I still can't understand.

~~Anyway, I love the idea and would use something like this if it allowed me to choose a configuration at order time which could include or not include a set of available apps which are curated by the manufacturer. That way, the apps are immutable and the mission of the phone is preserved. Also, a real keyboard is an absolute must for apps like maps, telegram, and SMS.~~

Looks like you can indeed uninstall and install apps as you like.

just uninstall it then?

> Any company which cares about privacy

I don't think this phone or Commodore has anything to do with privacy beyond what's legally required. It's a lifestyle product.

The phone is running Sailfish OS.

The whole point of the phone is that you don't install or uninstall apps. They're there, and are immutable as far as I can tell.

_EDIT_

raffael_de is absolutely correct, apps can be installed and removed, as they have their own "app store". Apologies for creating confusion and thanks for pointing it out.

Where does it say that? You can un/install apps as you like.
