An upgradable laptop seems kind of pointless when the screen and speakers are not upgradable and are subpar.. (alien.top)

I really like the concept but the speakers and screen aren't premium at all.

I have a decade old Dell XPS. Similar weight, but it has a much better 4k AMOLED screen and better speakers and a touch screen. It's not really worth it to me to upgrade to something that isn't better all around, or at least has a screen that exceeds my current one in some ways.

If Framework offered a screen upgrade (both in quality and touch screen) and better speakers it'd probably be an instant buy for me. But why would I want to keep the shell of a laptop that isn't premium?

Really OP? Go away. You clearly dont love repairs and dont see you can make your own replacements.

Dude wants to complain for the sake of complaining. Anyone that feeds into this is essentially feeding the troll.
