It's my first comment here: don't buy any puri.sm products. Or better say, think thrice before doing so. I used to own Librem 15 v4 which I bought in April 2020. Everything was bad. Just barely usable as a laptop. In January 2022 I spilled a water on the keyboard and some keys got stuck, so it kept on typing some letters sporadically. Tried to replace keyboard –> 150$ + delivery because it's the whole top panel to replace. No. OK, disconnected the keyboard and bought a compact Lenovo keyboard (also appeared to be a trashy thing). Half a year later the battery died. No chance to replace, out-of-stock, not even on chinese eshops.
Also, I preordered Librem 5 all the way back in 2019. Decided to cancel the order a year ago – still waiting for my money to come back.
Puri.sm gave me an impression of a scam copmany, unfortunately.
I'm an owner of Librem 5, Librem 15v3 and Librem 14. First one is the best phone one can dream of: runs desktop GNU/Linux without any proprietary blobs, has a replaceable battery (and I do have a spare one), WiFi and modem, kill switches (for camera/mic, WiFi/Bluetooth, modem), lifetime updates (from mainline Linux). Runs as a desktop if you connect a screen/keyboard.
Librem 15 is an amazing machine, still my daily driver with Qubes OS. Great keyboard, upgradeable RAM and disk, doesn't require any blobs in the userland.
Librem 14 is even better, with two .m2 SSD, upgradeable and powerful. Definitely checks many boxes in TFA. Too smal for my taste but great for travelling.
Yes, Purism has problems with refunds. Don't buy if you want to cancel your order. Everything else is great. Also, forums say that first versions of their devices may have rough edges. Wait until they are well tested to be sure. Librem 14 is well tested and many early problems were solved. Same for Librem 5.
Nothing if you're mainly going to use it to watch HD movies. I don't mind the resolution on a 13-14 inch screen to much to be fair, but IMHO 16:9 is really quite awful on such a small screen (and tolerable on 15-17 inch ones)
you have probably never used a high res display on a laptop, it makes a huge difference ;-)
Macbook Pros have had high res displays since 2012 (2880x1800 for the 15" back then)
The current 14" Macbook Pro comes with 3024x1964. Some other laptops go even higher.
