An important difference between Oneplus and Librem 5 is that the latter works with all free drivers, which enables running mainline Linux with lifetime updates.

That's a very good point, which made me look on a different direction (after realising that I can't buy a pinephone or a librem with a VAT invoice in the EU):
I'm probably going to buy a raspberry pi 5 or equivalent, slap a 2x12000mah battery and 5" oled touch screen on it, build an case around that and call it a day. It's going to be pocketable, it's going to have a lot more battery life and a lot cheaper.
As for my phone, I'll probably get a pinephone or librem equivalent once there's one I can actively use for about a normal working day without having to replace the battery or experience slowdowns.
Thanks for all the info on this thread!
