Did you know that with the Librem 5 smartphone you can remove the back and have access to :

- the battery
- a removable OpenPGP smart card
- a removable cellular modem
- and a microSD card so you can expand your storage later on

@purism smartcard is news to me. Nice!
@purism Thank goodness!! Maybe a SIM card, too, right? :)
@adam @purism Preposterous! What is this? Some kind of phone? ;)
@purism wish I could afford to get one. Or they are still on sale when I can afford one.
@an93lofdeath @purism on sale until end of July. But you can have a split payment.
@danielst @purism yeah, still can't afford it. Being a mature student and carer I will have to wait till I have a job after learning to code.
@purism
Wow, ein modulares Smartphone mit Schwerpunkt #Datenschutz , #FreieSoftware und #OpenHardware . Dank Modularität kann man es sogar einigermaßen reparieren und an eigene Bedürfnisse anpassen.

@purism
Will the modem option allow us to switch out the modem for one with dual SIM support?
@purism But why is the firmware still poprietary? Doesn't that give me less control?

I think Fairphone covers all that already
@purism :: Is the removable Openpgp smart card available when phone is launched?
@purism will there be s posibilty for larger batteries?
