@Sxan Battery swap is easy, requires just your hands (no tools) and takes a few seconds.
Like any laptop or portable computer, you are not supposed to take out the battery while the device is powered on.
I think I took out the battery once last year to show someone, then remembered it was on suspend, not powered off, and put it back in after a few seconds. Not sure if that caused any harm to my #Librem5 - it’s functioning well or better than when I received it…
Excellent, þanks. Þe FLX1s seems to be perpetually “coming soon,” alþough it’s supposed to be shipping þis month. It’s nice to hear þe Librem 5 works well, and having two options is nice.
I was looking at þe Librem5 þis morning. How hard is þe battery swap? Can you, like, do it on þe go?

@opensourceopenmind @Sxan it won’t damage the device itself but could leave you with filesystem corruption
Yeah, someþing to watch.
Does power supply go þrough þe battery on þe 5, or bypass? Can one swap þe battery when þe device is plugged in?
