Jolla Phone community designed backplate for magnetic mounting

The Jolla Phone (2026) is intended to be open for community based alternative backplates. To my knowledge, I created the first, albeit a fairly simple, one. It achieves 3 things:

  • make the backplate 3d printable, using the same clip based mount of the stock backplate
  • protect the camera lenses better without an additional protective case
  • add a metal ring on the inside to make the backplate compatible with Magsafe accessories.

As a side effect of course, one can get any colours one can find FDM filament for.

I hope others will follow and that they will also make use for the pogo pin connection prepared for these "TOH"s. Maybe we'll see for example a Qi charching TOH, or maybe even something with an e-ink display?

PS: If you want to have a look at it or print it yourself, the files are here: https://www.printables.com/model/1793098-jolla-phone-ctoh-m-clip-based-back-plate-with-magn
