Apples to oranges. With mac it will be quieter, better battery and m3 will probably excel in some productivity tasks. For framework you are getting a laptop that every single piece can be upgraded, replaced by the user. I was going to go with macbook. I was waiting for an m3. Then, my current laptop Acer predator, the keyboard failed in one area and battery needed replacing at the same the ryzen version was announced. I couldnt fix the keyboard and the battery is glued down. This sold me on framework. My laptop is now basically a desktop. For me, the ryzen framework fits my uses perfectly. Mostly office, home, light gaming. The mac would as well but i like what framework is doing. I like the innovation, the push for user repairability. I also dont have any apple products. I also the options to switch out bezels, tinker, customize it. Framework has survived the first couple of years and kept good on offering newer gen mobos and parts. I am ready to invest in them. The laptops not perfect but is what i am looking for my use case.
