We are living in an age where everything from clothing to furniture to technology is cheap and disposable. The assumption is that nothing lasts, so one might as well buy the cheapest thing and throw it away when it inevitably breaks. Nowhere is this more true than the phone market, but it's something we want to change with the Librem 5.

@kyle I saw your edit on https://puri.sm/posts/librem-5-longevity-solving-the-problem-of-disposable-technology/ about 5G modems... I hope Purism hasn't completely ruled out a 5G upgrade (including modem _and_ antennae).
@bear454 I think "ruled out" would be too strong, but once I got more information on what was involved I edited it so people wouldn't get the wrong idea in case when we explore it in the future we don't find a way to do it.
