I wanted to look into this to see how they actually compare. A comparable thin-and-light laptop from Lenovo is the ThinkPad X13 (Gen 2). In the only manual I was able to find they have a small list of "Customer Replaceable Units" which is: * Keyboard * Any M.2 parts * The cover assembly And that's it. No battery, display, laptop body, CPU, ports, etc. From what it says in the manual this seems to be part of their warranty process, not for general repair. > If you intend on installing a CRU, Lenovo will ship the CRU to you. CRU information and replacement instructions are shipped with your product and are available from Lenovo at any time upon request. You might be required to return the defective part that is replaced by the CRU. After some more digging it looks like they do actually have repair guides for most if not all of the parts: https://support.lenovo.com/au/en/solutions/ht510477-removal-and-replacement-videos-thinkpad-x13-gen-1-20t2-20t3-20uf-20ug https://support.lenovo.com/au/en/solutions/ht510477-removal-... And they do seem to list all the parts for that laptop: https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/products/laptops-and-netbooks/thinkpad-x-series-laptops/thinkpad-x13-type-20t2-20t3/20t2/parts/display/compatible https://pcsupport.lenovo.com/au/en/products/laptops-and-netb... But the only things I'm able to actually order are the SSD and the power brick. So it looks like the framework is a fair bit easier to repair (no popping key caps to unscrew the keyboard for instance), makes all their parts easily available (or at least it's easy to get notified when they become available), doesn't have 20 different versions for each part, but also doesn't offer the same kind of warranty and services that lenovo does.
