Any video footage / documentry on the MIL-STD-810 tests for the FL12?

I’m assuming it’s “MIL-STD-810H

There’s no mentioned of this in the “Specs”…only mentioned under the Overview section. And the wording there is “meets”…as opposed to “certified”. Interested in the hinge stability during the operational vibration tests.

Is there any additional info on this? Could make for a great semi-rugged marketing material.

e.g. Something similar to these?

They released video of them drop testing the FW13 on their social media a while back but I haven’t seen any of the FW12.

For example, to start with, maybe even a PDF like this document from HP…listing out which tests were passed and/or not conducted. (It’s just long because of the number of models subjected to the tests, but it’s really is just a yes / no kind of table, and references to test procedcures)

Another example: VAIO drop test:

The VAIO Pro PG product page (wording of “certified”):

Other tests (Not necessarily 810H related):

Goes towards building / marketing a level of confidence with the laptop.

…and here’s an old random end-user tests on the ThinkPad T440s:

Seen these videos (mostly of the ThinkPad) again and again. They used to impress me but now I just take it as meaning not-the-most-fragile-computer compared to some.
I presume it’d take money to get some kind of even short production done and that Framework have consciously decided to avoid that in spirit of keeping the FW12 as affordable as possible. After all, it’s Framework, from day one we’ve went out of our way to follow it.

Even a shaky cam like this would be fine, single shot / take:

It’s not like any of us is expecting a Framework Cinematic Universe footage.

More importantly, a PDF summary would be a great starting point.

Right now, I can only find these:


For example, the drop test, I’m guessing it was likely a logistic transit drop test, total of 26 drops? (As opposed to a tactical drop)

Like, I’m thinking, even from a product development perspective, it’s a good story to tell. Talk about the journey…
