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.

speakers are mediocre

the 13.5 could be a tad lighter, like 50-80g - or a lighter version

Chassis is aluminum, it will easily get dents - it looks really nice though - the ThinkPads I had were more resistent to dents due to it (magnesium case?)

Missing OLED option...

Screen is bright don't know what ppl complain ,400nit in an 2140*1800 screen is really good!
