Purism is putting a lot of money into maintainability on the software side. The Librem 5 runs Linux 5.3, and as far as I can tell, have every intention of making sure that their phone runs a mainline kernel.
Any Android phone you get pretty much gets stuck on a version of Linux that will never be upgraded.
The Librem 5 also physically separates out the Radio and WiFi, and allows you to cut power to those, the camera, and the microphone.
