Re: Purism Librem Phone

I kinf of fear the reason Purism went the way they did is because their background is in desktop, not mobile. And if a company has strong NIH culture they'll not easily fold and go the SFOS way for...

Re: Purism Librem Phone

the issue with USB-C is not manufacturer implementation. It's just a type of connector. That can support various different signals/protocols/whatever. The issue are cables and the fact that they...

Based on the information received so far, I'm afraid this device will not be in our hands this year.

and that nonsense really should stop. I mean, USB 3 is more than a decade all...... Most new laptops come with just USB 3.1. On the other hand, most phones are still USB 2 and data transfer works on...

Re: Purism Librem Phone

I'm kind of scratching my head here. :confused:

So they build a device with almost twice the screen diagonal of the N900, (due to scaling) they still have a lower resolution, and on top of that...

Exactly, three questions I'd like Purism to answer
1. What's wrong with Qt Quick? QtQuick Controls 2 are meant especially for mobile and are developed for a really long time?
2. What's wrong with...

Don't forget they are not designing a new N900 with a keyboard and resistive touch panel that can be used to precisely hit desktop like buttons using a stylus.

Re: Purism Librem Phone

On this one, I agree with you.

The whole gesture interface they have proposed seems broken, not only the 3s multi-tasking view.

Too bad they don't seem to have read what Jaakko Roppola...

Re: Purism Librem Phone

Debian Developers can see the point. PureOS is baser on Debian. PureOS is the operating System of Librem13, Librem15, and Librem5 phone.

Re: Purism Librem Phone
