I am considering a purchase as a student although it is really expensive.

What are your major criticisms of the framework laptop?

E.g.

- I have heard that it discharges battery even while powered off (a very serious issue IMO).

Also, I will be using win10/11 and fedora most likely. So any Linux-related issues (e.g. hardware support) I would really like to know.

Thanks for any ideas.

    2 main concern.

    Firstly the battery is really not good as it should be for this price range. Do not expect the battery to power the laptop for the entire day.

    Secondly, the framework is quite fragile. I mean, carry it in a good sleeves. Unfortunately even if you put tte laptop inside a good sleeves, you can easily bend it if it drops from a small height. I’m always careful when I carry my laptop.
