The additional firmware variant that now can be chosen says "Multilanguage - With Google Play Store (No OTA Updates) preinstalled".
That's great to know, thanks for the info. I've got mine ages ago, and could actually use Google Play Store... Any idea if there is a way to change the firmware if one already has the phone? How would that be possible?

Also, I'm super happy with the phone, and it replaced my other phone (iPhone). The only recent issue is that the sim car seems to be moving somehow. The phone asks for my sim code at least once a day now, and every couple of days I have to open the sim drawer and put it back in. The sim hasn't visibly moved though, and I even attached it with a (very tiny) bit of tape. The issue is still there. Anyone else noticing that?
