I’m excited that they continue to innovate and listen to customers. I own two Framework laptops, and I’m thrilled that I can easily upgrade to this version without having to replace the whole thing.

Even better that I can replace parts as they wear out, or as I feel. I love the monitor, so no need to replace it now. If it ever gets damaged though, I can grab the upgraded one without changing anything else. If the battery starts to suck, I can update to a higher Wh one.

Such a great product (so far).

Still not touchscreen, I’ll pass.

Cool tho, 13 is pretty much the perfect size for me.

I have a fist-gen Framework 13 (Intel 11). If I want to upgrade to fully match the new gear, what needs upgrading…?

Off the top of my head:

• display,
• mobo,
• my 64GB of DDR4 must be swapped for DDR5 IIUC,
• camera,
• the new 61Wh battery, and
• there were these new speakers, I think.

I should probably get a new keyboard as well, as I’m one of the people with the DEL key randomly going dead.

I already replaced:

• hinges, and
• the top cover.

I can hold on to the £10 wireless card, the PCIe3 SSD that I bought after WD just died one day, and the compressed alufoil that is the main body.

Well fuck me.
