Comparing the Librem 5 USA and PinePhone Beta - amosbatto - 12-10-2021
I wrote up some observations about the differences between the L5USA and PP:

Comparing the Librem 5 USA and PinePhone Beta
I would like to hear any feedback/critiques and know whether other people are seeing the same performance differences between the two phones.
I’ll probably post more observations later about the PP on my blog, now that I have it in my grubby little hands and can try using it as a phone. Sadly, I had to send the L5USA back to Purism for servicing and I don’t know when I’ll get back to the US to pick it up.

It's super long, so it might probably take me many weeks to get through it I think.
But I went through a little bit, and one thing caught my eyes:

I noticed an "X" button on the Librem screen, but not on the Pine screen.
Was this button present on the Librem 5 from the very beginning, or did you enable it by yourself?
In the case of the latter, which Gsetting is that?

@amosbatto thank you for the detailed comparison. It is super interesting. That must have been a lot of work!

The more I read about the Librem5, the more I like it. I don't mind the price; however I cannot justify to myself spending more than the combined cost of my last four cars, let alone to my wife!
Thank you for he write up.

In "dconf editor", go to "org / gnome / desktop / wm / preferences / button-layout" -> use default value ("appmenue:close")
On my PineTab it will be set back when docked -> undocked

This should do it:
Code:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout ":close"Code:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout ""RE: Comparing the Librem 5 USA and PinePhone Beta - ryo - 12-11-2021

Thanks, this worked.
I toyed around with it by adding the other 2 buttons, but seems like those did nothing, so I removed maximize and minimize again, but I'll keep the close button.
