It’s nice that it can be repaired and I really respect what the company is trying to do which is why I bought one in the first place. My complaint is just that it experienced random hardware failure that renders it unusable just outside of warranty and the only option that was offered is buying an expensive new mainboard.

I don’t really have a recommendation at the moment, currently using a lenovo 2 in 1 and I’ve had a good experience with running Linux on it. The build quality is also quite good, such as being a full metal shell.

I wouldn’t recommend going framework at all honestly. All usb functionality stopped working on mine for no reason and after a lengthy chat with customer support they just told me to buy a new mainboard. I was outside of warranty but the issue seemed like a hardware failure at no fault of my own and the warranty window is pretty short.
