I use my Librem 5 as a daily driver, and I’m certainly not an open source purist.

What I do care about is that my phone isn’t going to run into obsolescence a few years down the road (due to hard kernel forks and YOLO’ed device drivers that are not going to be updated for newer kernels).

How is it nowadays ?

I can't find recent demos of the phone, everything is a few years old on YouTube now, and I know the device is still in development.

How usable the browser and camera are ?

Can you get a full day of battery ?

I type this in a browser on the phone.

Camera: https://social.librem.one/@dos/tagged/shotonlibrem5

Battery: I unplugged it from the charger 10 hours ago, it's currently at 55%. Typically it's up to 22 hours when suspended, up to 12 hours when idling without suspend and about 3-5 hours of active use depending on what you're doing. Could be better, but can be worked with.
