Reserved one of the updated base model 13’s. Battery life for this gen of Ryzen seems solid in other laptops so I’m hoping it’ll do reasonably well at stretching the FW13’s 61Wh battery for low intensity tasks, particularly in power save mode under Linux.


I really want to get a Framework to replace my aging IdeaPad, but they don't ship to my region yet.

I was planning on ordering the 7840U version to where I'm staying in a trip to the US, but now it feels a bit of a let down to order a last-gen model since the new one might not arrive in time for my trip in mid-April.


Have you considered looking into a personal freight forwarder? I used these a few times while traveling through Europe.


Be careful with this because framework will not warranty your product in any way, and given their size and age, there is a not insignificant chance you will experience a product defect or failure and have no recourse, love my framework but I experienced a mainboard bricking after a failed firmware update, which framework addressed under warranty. I would caution against buying without a warranty.


I looked into it, but Framework explicitly states that they will cancel orders to freight forwarding addresses.


I wish they let us get rid of the pointless speakers and get a few more whs of battery instead.
