I love my L5, but would never suggest or even imply to anyone that it's usable as a daily driven phone.

The battery life is terrible and the software still buggy as hell.

It's a great host for Linux phone development though. I haven't had any major problems with the hardware being unstable or anything along those lines.

But once you start expecting the whole package to function more as a primary phone than a portable devkit you're using to further the state of Linux phones, it gets ugly pretty quick IME.

It all depends on your specific usage patterns. I can replace the battery during the day if I need (I don't do it every day). I find software sometimes buggy but usable as a daily driver.
