Security for everyone

The Librem are the only modern high-end laptops and phones where you are in control and have complete visibility into the operating system, all bundled software, and the deeper levels of your computer (read more (/learn/why-purism-computers-are-better-than-proprietary-devices-from-other-vendors/)…). Every Librem comes with free international shipping, a one year hardware warranty and lifetime software updates with PureOS (https://pureos.net). And our software updates are intended to make your hardware run better over time, not worse.

Great hardware, made to last.

Purism is manufacturing key components of the hardware and sourcing the remaining components in a way that increases your security, privacy, and freedom (read more about our sourcing and manufacturing (https://puri.sm/about/manufacturing-and-sourcing/)). Our computers are made to be user-serviceable and upgradable: you can open up the internals of your Purism Librem computer simply by unscrewing the bottom of the case. The HDD/SSD, RAM, wireless chipset, and battery are all accessible, and you can replace or upgrade any of these components. Note that they are not hot-swappable (our laptops are too thin for that), you still need to power down your laptop and remove screws to replace those parts.

Most vendors make you pay extra to get a warranty for more than 90 days. We back our laptops with a one year warranty by default, and you have option to upgrade to a three years warranty. See the policies (https://puri.sm/policies/) page for our warranty, returns & refunds policy.

A pure system

Meticulously designed chip by chip to work with free/libre and open source software (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free_and_open-source_software), the Librem reinstates your rights to freedom and privacy. We hand selected the best hardware that still honors our strict beliefs as a Social Purpose Corporation. Our machines are offered with our easy-to- use PureOS (https://pureos.net) for your convenience, while compatible with modern Free operating systems (including those with strict “drivers freedom requirements”, and those aimed at security experts, such as Qubes OS).

Say goodbye to outdated and proprietary BIOSes, say hello to coreboot.

Purism laptops are the only independently-made, brand new, high-performance laptops on the market specifically meant to pair recent technologies with our coreboot port (/coreboot/) and the potential to have a neutralized Intel Management Engine (https://puri.sm/learn/intel- me/). This can be applied as a software update for the original Librem 13 (porting to the original Librem 15 is ongoing), and is now also available factory-installed starting for all new Librem laptop models since summer 2017 (you can also customize and re-flash it yourself). Our work to reverse-engineer any remaining low-level firmware packages in our coreboot port is ongoing, and you can learn more about it on our Freedom Roadmap (https://puri.sm/learn/freedom-roadmap/) page.

Cutting-edge apps, and the future of graphics… Today.

Librems preloaded with PureOS (https://pureos.net/) feature the latest and greatest technologies, including GNOME 3 (https://www.gnome.org/gnome-3/) and the next-generation Wayland display protocol, out of the box. Thanks to this forward-thinking graphics subsystem, you can now enjoy fluid high-framerate videos without tearing, benefit from enhanced security through isolation between graphical software applications, frame-perfect hardware-accelerated animations and UI components rendering, and better power management.

"There is something you get from Purism that you can’t get from Apple: a device that is owned by you."
