> The problem is really that the SoCs aren't maintained for long

Why is this not a problem with laptops?




Because laptops don't use SoCs... A SoC (system on chip) is a whole lot more than just an application processor.


I don't think it's the actual reason. My Librem 5 phone will have lifetime updates just like a laptop, thanks to free drivers. Proprietary software is the reason for the planned obsolescence.


I hope it does!
