The eagerly awaited Framework Laptop 16 is now in the hands of customers, marking the culmination of a two-year journey to create an ultra-upgradeable, high-performance machine. The company is thrilled to receive early feedback from users and is committed to delivering on longevity, upgradeability, and repairability with this product.
Initial press reviews, including a comprehensive one from Jarrod’s Tech, have been positive, highlighting a broad range of benchmarks and subjective evaluations of the overall experience. Pre-orders for the Framework Laptop 16 are still open, with production ramping up to meet demand.
In addition to the new laptop release, Framework has expanded its developer documentation on GitHub, providing detailed information on the internals of the Framework Laptop 16. This complements existing materials for the Expansion Bay and Input Module systems, with plans to further enhance the documentation over time.
Furthermore, Framework has made strides in increasing accessibility to its products through the Framework Outlet. The company has reduced prices on B-stock Factory Seconds systems, offering a barebones Framework Laptop 13 configuration for under 0. Refurbished DDR4 memory is also available at a discounted price, providing customers with a cost-effective upgrade option.
Additionally, refurbished versions of the latest-generation laptops are now available in the US and Canada, sourced from undeliverable packages and returns. A unique offering from the Factory Outlet is a 20-pack of Expansion Card Shells, aimed at enabling developers to create custom expansion cards. These shells, originally intended for DisplayPort Expansion Cards, have been repurposed to encourage creativity and innovation in the developer community.
With a commitment to sustainability, accessibility, and innovation, Framework continues to make strides in the tech industry, offering cutting-edge products and resources for both end-users and developers.
