A simple question: What boots faster -- a run-of-the-mill Android phone or a Librem 5 smartphone running PureOS?

We put the Librem 5 dev kit next to an HTC One, both powered completely off, then pushed the power buttons at the same time.

The result... it wasn't even close.  I almost feel bad for Android.  Almost.

I mean, sure. “Boot speed” certainly isn’t the end-all, be-all of performance. In fact, it may not even be in a “Top 10 Important Performance Metrics.” But it gives a good indicator of what’s possible with the system — and what to expect. Add to it, the fact that this was done without any boot speed optimizations at all? Downright exciting.
