The Framework Laptop 16, available for preorder today[1] starting at $1,699 prebuilt, is one of the most exciting notebooks we’ve ever seen[2]. When it ships in Q4, the modular computer company’s first gaming laptop will let you swap practically every component — not just memory and storage, but each and every individual port, the motherboard, the battery, the speakers, you name
it.
Framework seems to be making it, despite the ridicule[3]. There’s more and more
companies taking repairability seriously, and the EU, too, is flexing its legal muscle[4] in this area. We’re getting there. Slowly.
