What’s new in this year’s Framework Laptop 13: Part 1 (upgrades)

You guys are really over stressing your battery fears. :mask:

And this is in a laptop you can swap the battery over so easy…

Kind of funny when you think about it.

besides, the elephant in the room is idle power, which is what brings battery life down. hopefully it’ll improve, but who knows.

If I pre-ordered a Framework 13, does that mean I have to buy a matte screen later?

Hi and welcome to the forum.

Not if you pr-eorder the 13th gen which only have a matt screen option, else yes if you buy an 11th or 12th Gen

As someone who bought the 4kg hinge, I would like to know whether the new 3.5kg hinges will have improved performance on the “resonance” issue (Explainer: Lid rigidity, hinge force, the CNC Top Cover, and the new 4.0kg Hinge Kit - #2 by A_Fan) versus the 4kg hinges. If so, it may be worth picking them up, even for those of us who already have the stronger 4kg hinges.

Speaking of the Framework 13 and Matte screen, I am referring to the Ryzen version.
