Let’s not forget now that Purism is a scam. Librem 5 is a joke.
How? I’m interested, because I wanted to buy one a few months ago :)
Check out Louis Rossmanns video about them. A rather shady company.
I just received mine after waiting 3+ years actually. It is pretty sweet with waydroid and KDE connect. I’m still not daily driving it because of the lack of a maps application with navigation though.
On Sailfish OS I used to use Pure Maps, which seems to be available on Flathub. I don’t know if it works on the Librem 5 though, but you might want to give it a try? There’s also an optional dependency for offline maps.
Oh yeah, I saw this on Ubuntu touch also. I’ll see if I can get the flathub repo loaded in. That will certainly increase the variety in apps I can use!
Really people still purchase from this company? I wonder how many years people we’ll have to wait to not get their tablet?
The Starlabs Starlite 5 looks much more interesting imo
Those are some… odd specs.
1TB NVME, OLED with an Intel N CPU?
the low power cpu bottleneck for nvme drives is pretty intense from what I know. These specs, to me, look like the equivalent of a tech youtuber just throwing together random hardware into a case to make a build video because it’s a slow week for content.
Linus moment
8gb soldered… my phone has 16gb soldered.
But it still has a phone OS. Android is really resource hungry taking into account it’s limitations.
? eh?
I wish them good luck. Only thing that would be important to me is if it can emulate up to gamecube, play some indie/fan games, & good battery life.
( Which I feel should be do-able in 2023. )
x86 in an ipad form factor? Boo!
What linux tablets use RISC? I see PineTab does, but it’s for people who like to brag that they use Arch. Are there any that are more polished?
