I have one and can give a quick review. Overall, it is very nice, but with a few small quirks.
1)Default Ubuntu install was very laggy. Not sure what was up with this.
2)Default Arch install is pretty much perfect.
3)Both Ubuntu and Arch have ok battery life. Pretty much as I expected for an Intel laptop. (i.e. not great)
4)By default, battery drain with the lid closed is pretty bad though. Don't expect to leave it laying around and it to still have battery when you go back to it. There is probably an easy solution to this but I haven't had time to look into it.
- nrp 5y agoThe lag in Ubuntu was likely a Panel Self Refresh support issue in that kernel. We posted a workaround here: https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Ubuntu+21.10+Installation+on+the+Framework+Laptop/109?lang=en#s659 https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Ubuntu+21.10+Installation+on... There is some community discussion on ways to optimize suspend power consumption as well: https://community.frame.work/t/ubuntu-21-10-on-the-framework-laptop/7941 https://community.frame.work/t/ubuntu-21-10-on-the-framework...
