14 DAY TRIAL // Purism has just announced a couple of discounts for its Librem laptops, with the company promising the devices would be shipped once they are back in stock.
The Librem 15 is now available with a $200 discount for the standard $1,599 configuration, while the Librem 13 can be yours with a $150 price cut, which means you must pay just $1,249 instead of the typical $1,399 price.
Of course, Purism used this occasion to praise the Librem laptops, highlighting that these devices are “the ultimate private and secure laptops” because they come with hardware kill switches for radios, mic, and the camera, Librem Key support, Pure OS, and Pureboot to replace binary firmware.
