I’ve missed a batch 14 guild, so here it is.
I am waiting for my pre built X7 which will be loaded with CachyOS. As I am testing Niri atm I think I’ll give it a try on the new pro.
As I am one week at vacation in October, I hope it will be delivered at the end of October. 
Also in batch 14 with the pre-built x7 and 32gb ram. This will also be my first framework (and hello everyone, my first post here!).
I’m very excited to use Linux again as my daily driver - likely Fedora Silverblue.
From batch 8/9/10 guilds’ reported timing, I guess batch 14’s shipping time will be around the end of October.
I Hope they will ship 11 - 13 together and the shipments will speed up from now on, waiting for Batch 18 
i been using linux for several months and i love it
Also in batch 14 Hoping it might come earlier than end of October.
Got the x7 16gb ram hope it will be enough I will run F44 KDE.
Hey everyone, I’m in the same batch 14 boat and excited for it. X7 and 32GB pre-built and delivery to the UK.
Seems like a lot of batches are compressed into October, I see batch 10 only got their ‘prepare for delivery’ emails less than a week ago. So I think end of October is realistic for us.
Batch 16 here. Yeah I think they are finalizing a new batch each new week as a general, but from what I’ve seen depending on your region you might get the email up to two weeks later than the first ones of your batch. We have to keep our fingers crossed it won’t get delayed
I’m wanting to add a microSD expansion card to my order. It really is safe to do that, right? The laptop price and batch won’t suddenly change?
Unless you change CPU to X9 your timeline shouldn’t be impacted. Don’t wait until last minute, change ahead of getting the preparation email.
Ordered 32GB, got dropped to 16GB, and just now boosted back to 32GB. Paying $600 for memory instead of the $439 originally quoted is painful, but these days that could have been a lot worse. Mostly I’m wishing ill will toward all the awful AI companies.
Batch 15 here, really hope I can receive it by the end of Oct as I’m going travelling in early November and my M1 Macbook Air is on its last legs
16 gig should be OK, but with little room only, depending on what your apps are.
F44 KDE is my daily OS, eats +/- 6 gig after startup, with my autostart apps loaded running with approximately 10 gig used (F44 KDE, NextCloud client, Bitwarden client, QBZ, and firefox with 10 tabs open).
16 gig seems to be the minimum those days, 32 if your want heavy apps such as video editing, 64 if you plan any local AI or VMs
In this economy 64 GB is like a whole house, guess VMs and AI gonna have to wait or be streamed.
EDIT: For context I have been running a 5 yr old Precision 7560 with 64GB ram and consistently hit 30-50% usage at semi idle meaning no heavy things running.
I tend to agree.
My main worry is the choice of LPCAMM2 memory format, if you went for the intel mainboard, I’m not convinced we’ll be able to upgrade it anytime soon.
Also, reading press, it seems most of 2027 RAM production is already sold and it may get worse at least through 2028.
Trust me it won’t get worse from now. From what I have heard prices would stabilize in 2027 and might start to get down in H2 2028
We can only hope that the AI companies will stop this madness 
Some forecast (maybe made up to keep stock high ?) say until at least late 2028, maybe 2030.
I’m curious how long we’ll have to wait for those humanoid robots to be kidnapped to steal their RAM and storage (I know it’s unlikely compatible with our laptops; but do the robbers know ?).
If people steal copper cables worth 11 EUR/kg, what about chips at 200 EUR/gram ? 
Is there a place we can see what batch is shipping this week?
Framework added it to reddit: Framework Q4 2026 Preorder and Marketplace Updates
Oct 4th Update:
Framework Laptop 13 Pro Batch 11 (Intel):
Received their batch preparation emails today! (100%)
Framework Laptop 13 Pro Batch 11 (AMD):
Received their batch preparation emails today! (90%)
As from the pre-order schedule 7 batches are planned for October, maybe batch 14 can be expected in 2 weeks.
