Librem 11 questions for those of you using one for a while

How does it do with external displays?

I don’t have first-hand experience, though it seems to work. See: https://forums.puri.sm/t/off-topic-librem-11-tablet/20272/60

Any problems with external bluetooth mice or keyboards?

I couldn’t say as I don’t own any Bluetooth devices.

How is it in vertical mode with external bluetooth mouse and keyboard?

I couldn’t say as I don’t own any Bluetooth devices.

What tasks are difficult with these specs (processor and RAM)?

I’ve not found issues with the specs themselves. I’m able to compile Rust programs reasonably well, though to be fair, they are relatively small programs.

What battery life is average?

Pretty terrible if I’m honest. I think I can get a little bit over 2 hours if I’m lucky.

This is my battery drain with active use, using PureBoot 29.

Any bluetooth audio issues?

I don’t know – I don’t own any Bluetooth devices. Supposedly there were some issues with it at 2023 of September.


I have experienced a touch bug sometimes where something is making the device think that one region of the screen is being held down (touched; location seems random every time). This makes it so that when I’m doing something like viewing images, it does a pinch-and-zoom gesture when I swipe around. Tapping the screen with multiple fingers a number of times seems to reset the multi-touch state. I couldn’t tell you how many taps are needed to work around this annoyance.

My primary use-case is with Komikku and I’ve rarely used Rnote with the included pen.
