I love my GPD Win mini, and I've had a few other GPD products before that, but I'm not sure if a framework-style modular design would work as well there. For starters, they've always gone with soldered RAM for both physical size and performance reasons (RAM speed matters more with integrated graphics, and soldered RAM can go faster that socketed RAM.) Additionally, I don't think there's enough space for a reasonable number of ports via expansion cards. Even in the larger 8-inch-screen models, I think 4 expansion slots would be very difficult, whereas the current 7-inch models have 5-8 ports. (I think some of the MicroPC models had a handful of fixed ports + one modular expansion slot, so maybe they could change that one to a framework-compatible design?) To their credit, GPD has offered motherboard upgrades in the past when a refreshed design is otherwise compatible. But there are often changes in ports or layout or cooling design that make that impossible.
