>Is Sup Forums ready for the best phone ever?
but I already own the best phone ever :^)

How did you get a Librem 5 if it hasn't been made yet?

I really doubt this project will succeed. Mark spent tens of millions on the Ubuntu phone and failed to deliver.

That was his problem. They spent too much on such of a tiny market share

I wish it didn't cost an arm and a leg

Yeah. That's probably the only thing that might prevent me from getting one.

I'm ready for all the crying when it fails, just like every "open phone" attempt, ever.

This phone is not free. The minimum offering that includes a phone is $600. Even the developer kit is $300. Why does everyone expect all software to be free? Why should the hardware people get paid for their work and the programmers get zero?

At the end of 2019 maybe.

If they can deliver on their promises, it's definitely worth the wait.

>projected release 2019
>if you have any experience with crowdfunded shit, you'll know this date is pure fantasy

...

It's free as in freedom, you mong.

>replying to such obvious bait and getting trips in the process.

Nice job.

I sure hope battery in my current phone holds long enough for librems to come out.
Thats going to be long fucking wait.
They did deliver librem laptops though, so we can hope.

I hope my Nexus 5X doesn't die a horrible bootlooping death before it comes out, though I do have access to a rework station so I'm not too worried.

That isn’t the Neo900.

Uhh, how much does it cost?

Technically Ubuntu Touch wasn't really Ubuntu. It was basically an Android reskin, I believe. Irrelevant to your comment, I know, but I just thought I'd point it out.

works on the 5X

too much if price matters more than freedom

>Ubuntu phone came out at a time where you needed a flagship phone for good performance and bullshitted things like sapphire screens
>in current year no name chink brands can make random shit that can match flagships in day to day activities and in most cases either match or double the battery life

You mean if they can provide good updates while not trying to run with the money

>provide good updates
The beauty of this phone is you don't have to rely on their shitty OS. You can just install gentoo, or arch or whatever.

>trying to run with the money
They're an established company already.

i wish this place had moderators, why are you faggots allowed to spam and advertise via spam ?

>$1,500,000
that's pretty expensive, I won't be able to afford it

how's the file picker on it?

Since you'll be able to run KDE Plasma, it'll be pretty much perfect.

>kbloat
>on a phone
jesus christ I'm gonna vomit

>updates only mean phone updates
No nu-Sup Forums, by updates I mean project updates
I wanna see where this shit is going

You won't even have to install a DE.
Sup Forums will finally be able to have their CLI-only hackerphone.

Epic, simply epic.

But will all the firmware be completely libre?

poorfag

International shipping WHEN?

we do have moderators, chinklord2.0 allows people to shill their products as long as they give him enough money
