It doesn't happen often but, when the stars align just right, you can find some good discounts at the Purism store.
Right now Librem 15 laptops can be found for $250 off -- and the pre-order for the Librem 5 smartphone is going up by $50 in June.
Sensor calibration settings can be used by apps/sites to fingerprint iOS and Android phones.
We added a "Lockdown Mode" for the Librem 5 which allows you to defend against this.

Price goes up to $699 soon as we prepare for launch.

The @purism Librem 5 smartphone will run GNU/Linux.
Why will it succeed, when others did not? Is it the hardware kill-switches?
Yes, but mostly it is the all-out privacy and security. The time is right. This era calls for it.
The Librem 5 smartphone -- running GNU/Linux -- is "confirmed for Q3 product shipping."
