I'm using my Framework for about a year now, and it's a worthy replacement for the lenovo x220 I had before. The lenovo had some broken plastic clips from the many times I disassembled it, imagine my excitement when framework announced they would use magnets instead! The only complaint I have is the battery drain in suspend, but it seems like this is an issue with the 11th generation Intel processor my mainboard bears. Not a great excuse by any means, but tolerable when weighted against the rest of the package. Now that they finally announced matte displays, the only things I'm missing is a better shell than the cheap looking aluminium alloy type they currently use and a trackpoint option.
- nicolaslem 4y agoRegarding battery drain in suspend, even if that specific issue gets fixed, the downside of user replaceable memory is that it is not low-power. In suspend, this means a battery life counted in days instead of weeks with regular LPDDR.
- f1refly 4y agoThe x220 it replaced had a smaller battery and two ddr3 sticks instead of a single ddr4. It still lasted longer than the framework laptop when comparing suspend times, even with deep sleep enabled.

The shell is my last remaining point against Framework; if their next generation has Thinkpad-level build quality or even if they sell such a shell under a separate "pro" model (and charge extra for it), there won't be any hurdles left.
