FW16 Batch 11 Guild

Inquired about my order today and got this reply.

ā€œThank you for contacting Framework Support.
We understand that you are inquiring about your Framework Laptop 16 order.
Upon checking your order, the payment has not yet been settled or fully paid.
Kindly complete the payment for us to proceed with shipping your order.ā€

So they donā€™t email you or charge your card as stated?

"Thank you for your pre-order!

Youā€™ve placed a deposit for a Framework pre-order in Batch 11. Weā€™ll charge the remaining balance on the order to your payment method on file closer to the ship date, and weā€™ll notify you by email before that happens."

Edit:
When asked how to complete the order.

ā€œWeā€™ll let you know when your order is readyā€

So, I guess batch 11 still isnā€™t ready? Who knows. :thinking:

Godddd I canā€™t wait for things to finally be ready. The laptop Iā€™m using right now is falling apart and so is my main PC, but Iā€™m expecting Batch 11 in May AT BEST. More likely June, possibly even July, but Iā€™m also an omega pessimist. Very excited to see mine.

Batch 11 bro here. Iā€™m still running a Ryzen 1600 desktop from 2017. The 7840HS has double the benchmark scores as my current processor. Frankly pumped

Bro try 2015 MacBook Pro

Iā€™ll be happy if they deliver (or at least charge) by the end of H1, tbh. Wouldnā€™t be pleasantly shocked if itā€™s Q1, but given batch 4 havenā€™t had prep emails yet Iā€™m not expecting it to be the case. Hype regardless!

As I read here, Batch 4 received the ā€œWeā€™re preparing your batch!ā€ email on 8th of March, so I assume that Batch 11 will receive this email begin of May. Donā€™t you think so?

Edit: It might be the end of april!

Sounds possible if they move at 1 batch/week. The gap between batch 3 and 4 was bigger thanks to the supply chain issues, so that should be faster for the next ones.

Just donā€™t depend on it, could just as well by June.

Thanks to the eighth shipment email, I have a good feeling about us getting the batch prep email mid to late April, and people getting their laptops not long after! (Iā€™m leaning more towards mid rather than late April tho)

This is the specific part of the announcement that my guestimation is based off of.

All this talk about 2015 this, 2017 that.

My desktop is from 2010.

Iā€™ve preordered my SSD and RAM so that it hopefully arrives before the laptop. SSD is supposed to arrive tomorrow and I can make sure it works easily, but the RAMā€™s gonna take another 3 weeks because nothing exists in Australia :\

I mean hey if something goes wrong with the RAM at least Iā€™ll probably be able to know within 30 days

Almost time! From the times that people from other batches got their emails Batch 11 should get their emails around April 15th. :grinning:

Here is my batch 12 projection. I hope for sooner butā€¦it is all a wild guess.

My non-US brain was like, wow, 5th of november is a really late and pessimistic prediction, then I realized itā€™s the 11th of may

The european format does make a lot more sense

Quite off topic: ISO-format (2024-05-11) is even better, as it is easily identifiable while not needing more characters to type. And will avoid the year-2000-problem for millenia to come :slight_smile:

Iā€™m Dutch, but I always set my system locale to Canadian English because they use yyyy-mm-dd dates. :upside_down_face:

In one way maybeā€¦
BUT,
I name a lot of files with yy or yyyy -mm-dd
And they sort correctly by default.
That matters the most to me.

It does up until you need to name and archive stuff, then yyyy-mm-dd is drastically more usefull
