They do ship continuously, but its pretty slow. The ones who received there Librem 5's in the last days waited some 1270 days (180 weeks).

Have a look at https://forums.puri.sm/t/estimate-your-librem-5-shipping/112... that's a better prediction then Purism's 52 weeks...



3.5 years average wait time is pretty damn bad for a device that has a life span of not much more than 3.5 years.

I'd love to try one of their phones, but I can't convince myself to pull the trigger at the price/performance/delay triangle they've settled into.


Seeing the celebration from folks on receiving the items they paid for 1200+ days later was uhh, an experience.

This is what you get for "Assembled in the USA."


No. The ones that have a 1200 day lead time are the normal ones made in China. The "assembled in the USA" ones have a 10-day lead time (and a $2000 price tag).
