Update: Batch 3, received “We’re preparing your batch!” email on 2025-12-10. Est. charge between 2025-12-12 and 2025-12-27, est. shipping 1-3 days later.
I’m in Batch 3 and I just received the email from Framework that they’re preparing to ship my pre-order:
We’re preparing to ship pre-orders in your batch!
Your order is shipping soon! The outstanding balance will be charged in 3-18 days, and the order will be shipped 1-3 days after payment is complete.
I placed the pre-order on August 27 and I last modified it on November 13, when I added the RAM (initially, I thought I would buy the RAM locally, but I saw the prices starting to go up and also thought about potential warranty issues, so I decided it’s best to buy it from Framework).
I’m a bit scared that I might not get it before Christmas, since it says “3-18 days” for charging the rest of the amount on my card, after which another “1-3 days“ for shipping, but we’ll see how it goes.
My configuration:
System: AMD Ryzen™ AI 300 Series - Ryzen™ AI 9 HX 370
Awesome to hear there is an update on batch 3(-5!?), at least things are moving. Was hoping to get this before Christmas, but it looks like I can rest assured it won’t arrive while I am out of the country over the holidays…
I’m in batch 1 for the same Ryzen, got my Nov 16 email, but have not received anything else about a delay. Still waiting to be charged for my mainboard.
Yes, it is a mystery and baffling how they can be preparing Batch #3 if they have not even fulfilled orders for Batch #1 and Batch #2…very strange, unless they have combined batches we have not been made aware of.
