| We ordered two Librem 5 handsets in November 2019 and are still waiting for them to ship. With any luck we'll get them before the end of the decade. | We ordered two Librem 5 handsets in November 2019 and are still waiting for them to ship.

| + | We finally got our Librem 5s! Battery life is terrible, and it gets pretty warm when charging, but the hardware itself is very solid. Using desktop apps like Telegram is possible, but a bit finicky. The lack of swipe input on the keyboard is probably the biggest negative for me. The camera is practically unusable, but I've gone so long without a smartphone camera that this doesn't bother me much. | ||
