I may sound like a broken record, but I'm hoping for a laptop with NXP's iMX8M. The same SoC that will be in Purism Libre 5. Mainline kernel with open source GPU drivers. Etnaviv may need more work, but with more hardware available it will be easier, as more work could be shared.
- jbf1001 8y agoI've not heard of Purism before. Have you ever owned any of their products and how was your experience?
- stamps 8y agoI have their latest Librem 13. I bought the base model and upgraded it with 16gb of RAM (wish I could have done 32gb), 1TB NVMe, and a 1TB SATA SSD. So far it is great. I've been using it as my daily driver for about 6 months with Manjaro. I get about 8 hours of battery life unless I'm running my Windows VM needed for some work tasks. Otherwise it's just firefox, slack-cli, thunderbird, and webstorm.
