Find us on Librem OneWe have a new #librem5 update! Ethical aesthetics – Librem 5 design report #7
https://puri.sm/posts/librem5-progress-report-18/
We're curious your thoughts on this potential branding decision.
Russ SharekI think the edge brnding keeps nicely in line with the minimalist aesthetic, and it's easy enough to cover with a case (you will offer a case, please?) if someone prefers to keep such details private!
jezrait is an excellent design, and certainly preferable to a large screen printing

tired: text id
wired: image id
inspired: design id
(i remain interested by the work you're doing, i want to be protected from surveillance capitalism [as much as possible], and you seem to be pushing privacy potentialities to fruition)
good luck! 🍀
pierrick@Purism I love not being an ad, awesome !

Love that you're carrying over your laptops' minimalist aesthetic over to your phone! This won't be the first phone to have labeling on the side; for example the Moto X4 has it on the bottom next to the headphone jack. But great look nonetheless.

Simon Brooke@Purism A black-on-black logo (gloss on matte or vice-versa) is discreet. But the side logo idea is ok too.
Things that concern me more are: how big is it and how robust is it?

Reinder Dijkhuis@Purism I like it, both the actual design decision of using the side and the reasoning behind it.
meejah@Purism I appreciate the minimal branding/logos on my laptop. If I were to ever get a phone, "less is better" IMO.
GenTollis@Purism I may be in the minority here but there are some companies/products that I want to promote passively (and actively). The Librem 5 is one of those products. That said, the aesthetic on all your devices is fantastic & I can't wait to get my Librem!
Aral Balkan@Purism Beautiful. ♥🎈

Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️I have mixed feelings about this... On the one hand I applaud that you aren't *forcing* your users to become walking billboards for your brand... on the other, if I had one of your products, I personally would *want* to show off that I was using something as cool as what you make (especially the librem-5).
Your logo is also so minimalistic that it wouldn't look crass displayed anyway. In an ideal world each user could choose for themselves, build to order. Not realistic, I know!

@Purism keep the branding minimal, nothing will prevent from using a case that flashes "LIBREM5" in full caps and full size on the back.
