After two years and two replacements, my Framework board is really showing its age. The battery doesn't last more than a couple hours. Fans drive uncomfortably loud and hot. It won't even power on without being plugged in, despite the battery being full. Weird slowdowns that will cripple my system for half a minute at a time under any significant load. This is all despite multiple clean installs.
My XPS 13 from 5 years ago is a more consistent performer than the Framework. I wouldn't recommend to anyone they purchase a Framework.
- mixmastamyk 3y agoSounds like you have hardware problems and need to speak with support (again). My issue is not likely hardware, but that firmware is not shipped often enough.
- emptysongglass 3y agoYes, that's what I was communicating. The QC is bad. In addition, firmware updates are few and far between and there's no sign of Coreboot support.
