Having a Lenovo X1 Carbon 16GB and 256SSD, a macbook air 8GB 256SSD, a purism 13v2 with 512nvme and 16gb memory and a Lenovo Yoga 2 pro 8GB adn 256GB SSD, I must say, that the purism is bought with kill switches in mind. It's more expensive, heavier and thicker. If Open Source BIOS and kill switches is secondary, then The Lenovo's are both hard rocking Qubes machines(and the qubes developer team uses the X1 Carbon). I've had a few issues with the Librem(bios, fan's ,etc), so be clear about your needs before purchase. If the Purism concept appeals to you, go for it. If not, don't. I even bought the Librem5 phone and await its arrival in a year or so, but I guess I'm just a fanboy.
