I wouldn't count on it. It seems like their bread-and-butter is the module system, which doesn't seem like a good fit for the handheld market. The Deck is fairly consumer-friendly as-is anyways, it's not like they can disrupt the market by offering replacement parts or letting you upgrade the hard drive.

- smoldesu 4y agoMaybe. I think Framework's value prop is much better on laptops, and most gamers won't really care as much about repairability or hackability. Even if they did, Framework cannot beat Valve's introductory price of $399. It seems more likely to me that GPD would make a Framework-style device than the other way around.
- WhereIsTheTruth 4y agoPrice doesn't matter, GPD is the proof GDP already have a Framework style device: https://gpd.hk/gpdwinmax2 https://gpd.hk/gpdwinmax2, Framework could design a controller module, maybe that's what they should do, sell one and test the water, if enough interest, make a handheld PC console
