From a company that has had a few issues and problems levvied against it? Hm... I'd go with a PinePhone or FairPhone.
Though I honestly can't say that I dont like Purism's design choices, their stuff looks good.
Wish their image did, too... :/

I see some of the additional cost as going towards software development, it doesn't appear that Pine64 is that involved. It's good to see Purism sticking with it and pushing forward.
