The core CPU in the Librem 5 and Liberty phone sounds slow at 1.5 GHz. Especially compared to the new phones just coming out with a speed of twice that. But the number of operations per second the CPU can handle is just the story’s start; it’s not a direct correlation to user experience. [im…

All my HTML and Text Pages load very fast in Milliseconds like it have to be on my Desktop Linux System with Adblocker and without Telemetry or DNS collected Data. Just my Librem 5 have a smaller energy Footprint. So yes i like the Librem5 compared to my Android Devices. Cause they use Google Code …

I know the intent of the post and certainly having carefully designed software with good code has helped the L5 along tremendously and the experience is way more polished than it was 2 years ago and faster. The video and loading speed times however are not what I am experiencing so maybe he is runni…

[image] amosbatto: i.MX 95 With 6 cores that seems to be a good upgrade from the i.MX 8 Quad, maybe power requirements also improve since it uses 16nm technology versus the i.MX 8 Quad 28nm (and 2GHz vs 1.5GHz certainly doesn’t hurt). So if that is something to upgrade the L5 motherboad with …

Thank you very much for the informative answer :slight_smile: I personally don’t need a cutting edge CPU, and I understand the compromises behind the choice they made, I was just curious about the current hardware acceleration via GPU, as the phone interface seems sometimes lagging for no good reas…

[image] rekotc: the phone interface seems sometimes lagging for no good reason. Yes the PHOneSHell still need Acceleration that why stutering.

From my experience most issues in responsiveness come from the CPU. But as developer you can workaround a lot by putting intensive tasks into the background and handling them asynchronously. The GPU is not an issue. I can run one of my own game projects using Godot with OpenGL ES 2 fluidly, hitting…

FWIW I appreciate that what you say may be technically correct in that there is more engagement than there was and that you may eventually engage even more. However after two weeks and most of that engagement being about your RV internet setup or how you will be engaging more it rings fairly hollow …

Maybe we should all volunteer for Purism and be the change we want to be.
