I love how Linus made sure to protect his $220k investment in the company and showed the laptop repair/replace process in the best light possible, by... Not reading the instruction manuals and fumbling through the entire thing without even using a parts tray, thus making the entire process look a lot more painful than it actually probably is? 😂😂😂

I think its also important to note that even if something is easy with instructions. Easy-Medium WITHOUT instructions, is imporant too.

Framework could even implement a future discount if you sold your old boards or components back to them, and they could sell those at a discount for more ease of access and less waste.

having access to schematic and 1st party replacement parts is awesome.

Arguably the swappable modules make much less sense for the desktop, because they're ultimately just USB-C devices, and while the module slotting into a laptop chassis has value in terms of form factor, there's not really any advantage to a module slotting into a desktop instead of just plugging in a dongle version.

I've sat on carpet, on a bed, in the back of a car, etc and did repair work on PCs and other electronics. No "screw holder" or "guides".... It's called remembering what you did and just reversing it. If that doesn't work count holes. If one part has 5 holes and another has 3 holes and you have 5 screws of the same size and 3 screws of the same size guess what???

Not a big issue for me as for traveling I use my company-issued Mac but if this was my only daily driver that would suck a lot. Other than that it is fantastic. I pitched this to the IT department of my employer because we can easily switch keyboards to the liking of new employees and adjust specs and label ourselves a bit greener doing so.

@kore996 Yıl önce

Maybe on the internal parts they should have colour coded screw holes so that you can easily identify what sized screw goes where. For example red would be the “small screw” (whatever screw spec it is) and blue would be the “medium screw” and so on. They could provided a legend of all the colours and screw specifications for reference to save from colour coding the screws themselves which would be expensive I would assume. Another thing could be that each part could specify how many screws total it requires so you can keep things way dummy proof…so it would be something like Red 4 indicating that this parts requires 4 x red sized screws. This could help with not having extra screws remaining afterwards 😂

Well because the S20 , s20 plus and ultra all have 1440p oled panels...... the 21 n 22 don't unless you pay a premium for the ultra series which isn't worth the price tag... the s20 plus was and is a amazing phone and will remain so until Samsung brings back high resolution back to the plus and standard family of high end phones.... you pay a grand just for the bottom end flag ship anymore the S10 series was the same and so was s20.. but with those you got 1440p.. and when s20 came we got 120hz and now we can bump it to 90hz as well.. so the s20 has 3 fps modes 60hz , 90hz , 120hz... and I run mine at 1440p and I do hit the 90hz option and it turns it on but I personally don't know if it's actually running 90hz at 1440p... it absolutely has the capability to do so... it's just Samsung and their goofy bios locking these displays at certain fps / hz... but I do know 1080p 90hz works 720p 90hz works but I'm not sure the 2k @ 90hz does... I know 120hz is locked out for some reason prob batt life... but eventually a dev at xda will be able to force the phones into 2k 120hz which would be amazing ;) ... anyway Linus that company seems like a good one.. with amazing ideas and bringing something new and amazing to the gaming and pc world. Which we all want n need it'll save us cash too ;).. and bring pc building to more homes and more fathers and sons n daughters and mothers and sons n daughters and brothers n sisters together and enjoy the hobby and the kids can learn about how computers works ect.. which is good considering pc and laptop and cell phones and consoles are legitimately taking over every day life now lol

A comment I read in another video about the framework laptop feels very fitting for this video, "we're gonna need to train the anti-consumer habits of companies out of our system." In devices such as laptops, when we usually hear that a hinge is broken we either begrudgingly send it in to a repair shop (wherever that could be) for a long stretch of time or we just bite our tongue and live with the issue. However with this machine, you yourself can change out the components in record time without fumbling too hard on the replacement. It's absurd how much companies trained us to be complicit in their greedy practices and move us to just buy the new thing whenever your current thing will die. Not this time. This company would surely help regain a new bar for excellence in terms of support, service and excellence.
