I wanted to love Framework, but it just doesn't compete at all with my X1 Carbon.
Then again, I've failed to find any laptop that I like more than the X1 Carbon. It's damn near perfect.
- binkHN 3y agoLove the X1C, would love it more if it wasn't Intel-only.
- cmrdporcupine 3y agoBe careful what you wish for. I went with an Ryzen thinkpad last year (Z16 Gen 1) and it's been a big headache. Only after about a year did software (BIOS mainly) support settle into something not scary flaky. Things like external USB displays completely breaking for a couple months. Fan control breaking. Power mgmt in general not great. I am fairly certain an Intel system would have had less drama.
- paxys 3y agoIt absolutely competes if you value upgradability. The two are about the same price for similar specs, but the moment you buy the X1 the clock starts ticking. Heck even the RAM in it is soldered to the motherboard these days.
