My main gripes:
- There's zero mention of the display technology, just "2.8K Touchscreen Display"
- The optional HDMI ("3rd Gen") adapter is only 4K 60hz, when the host chip has integrated Thunderbolt 4 which can output 4K 240Hz
- 12_throw_away 6mo agoIn the announcement video, he says the display is "LTPS LCD" (I don't actually know if that's good or not)
- rick_dalton 6mo agoThey would have definitely advertised if it was something special like mini-LED but it seems to be a pretty standard display.
- Sephr 6mo agoJudging by the graphics used in the launch event, it may actually be miniLED. Perhaps they aren't mentioning this so people don't compare their max 700 nits full screen brightness to other vendors' >1000 nits full screen brightness.
- jonf3n 5mo agoYes, it is HDMI version 2.0b -- they seem to try and hide that. Really need TB5 and HDMI 2.1 at least!
- jack_arleth 5mo agoHDMI 2.1 is basically blocked by the HDMI forum: "... This isn’t some unsolved mystery buried deep in kernel code. The issue sits with the HDMI Forum, which controls the HDMI 2.1 specification. To implement it fully, you need to agree to licensing terms that clash hard with open-source licenses like GPL. ..."

So I can perfectly imagine a small hardware vendor like Framework being unable to get support for this. Perhaps DP is a better solution for your use-case?
