*Librem SIMple is here!*

Recently we have updated the back-end infrastructure that powers Librem 
AweSIM so we can extend this service to a lot more people. That change 
now allows us to offer a new plan, "Librem SIMple" that provides the 
same unlimited talk, text, and privacy protections as the Librem AweSIM 
<https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-awesim/>, but with a 1GB monthly data 
limit and a $39/month price. We will also still be offering AweSIM with 
unlimited talk, text, and data for $99/month. Currently both services 
are for the US, with roaming included within the US, US Virgin Islands, 
Puerto Rico, Canada, and Mexico.

Sign up <https://shop.puri.sm/shop/librem-simple/> for SIMple.

*Librem 5 Photo Processing Tutorial*

As we continue to ship the Librem 5 orders, we have been updating the 
software capabilities of the phone too. During the last year, it has 
become possible to take some pretty good-looking high resolution photos 
<https://social.librem.one/tags/shotonlibrem5> with the Librem 5. The 
two Librem 5 cameras can be used to take stunning photos, and the driver 
for the front camera is even already upstreamed into mainline Linux 
<https://puri.sm/posts/purism-and-linux-5-17/>. You can manually set the 
gain, exposure and focus knobs before taking the photo, learn more in 
this tutorial <https://puri.sm/posts/librem-5-photo-processing-tutorial/>.

*My First Year of Librem 5 Convergence*

The advantage of using a Librem 5 with a convergent OS like PureOS 
<https://puri.sm/posts/true-convergence-is-here-pureos-10-is-released-for-all-librem-products/>, 
is once you dock it, all the adaptive applications become the same 
full-sized Linux desktop applications you would see on a Librem 14 
laptop. Also, all of the applications that haven't yet been updated to 
fit on the phone screen well, work just fine on the larger screen. Over 
the past year Kyle Rankin has been using his Librem 5 with a laptop dock 
instead of his personal Librem 13v1. In this post 
<https://puri.sm/posts/my-first-year-of-librem-5-convergence/> he talks 
about his impressions after using a Librem 5 with his personal laptop 
for over a year.
