Hands-On with the Framework Modular D-I-Y Laptop!
Remember when laptops had replaceable and upgradeable components? That’s what a new company Framework is trying to bring back with their fully modular laptop design. We go hands-on with the laptop to take a look at its internal design and chat with CEO Nirav Patel about their D-I-Y approach to hardware and the plan to allow users to upgrade everything from battery to CPU instead of buying a completely new system.

The biggest thing that makes ‘desktop computer building’ so lucrative is the fact that you can easily pick a combination of CPU, GPU, storage space and peripherals rather than going down the shop and buying a machine that has specs you are not after and costing more.
