    I’ve daily-driven my Librem 5 since March 2023. I will certainly not state that this device will meet everyone’s needs or expectations and would consider myself a patient prosumer, but comfortable daily use is possible and is proving easier in testing the next major PureOS release (crimson).



  • the PinePhone Pro looks the most promising one of the bunch

    I’ll have to advocate for the Librem 5 over the Pinephone Pro for the following reasons:

    1. The Pinephone Pro has officially been discontinued as of August 2025 [source].
    2. The Librem 5 and Liberty phones are still in production [source].
    3. Librem 5 PCB board design files are also available - not just schematics [source].
    4. Purism is already working on a Librem 5 version 2.
    5. Purism is pushing toward FSF RYF certification for the Librem 5 and future models.
