Framework Laptop 12 review: fun, flexible and repairable

The Guardian

The modular and repairable PC maker Framework's latest machine moves into the notoriously difficult to fix 2-in-1 category with a fun 12in laptop with a touchscreen and a 360-degree hinge. The new machine still supports the company's innovative expansion cards for swapping the different ports in the side, which are cross-compatible with the Framework 13 and 16 among others. And you can still open it up to replace the memory, storage and internal components with a few simple screws. The Framework 12 is available in either DIY form, starting at 499 ( 569/ 549/A 909), or more conventional prebuilt models starting at 749. It sits under the 799-and-up Laptop 13 and 1,399 Laptop 16 as the company's most compact and affordable model.
