The Framework Laptop 12 isn’t just any convertible laptop. Instead, it’s more like a desktop PC that you can buy pre-assembled or build yourself, as I did. Like seeing a PC you’ve built boot successfully for the first time, I felt that same spark of satisfaction when the Framework Laptop 12 turned on. Similar to Framework’s other laptops, this one is fully repairable and upgradeable. While you can choose from three different Intel CPUs when configuring it, you can also tweak its memory, storage, and even the operating system to your liking. The same goes for the ports on either side. Unlike a traditional laptop, though, you can actually swap out the four ports on the Framework Laptop 12 depending on the task at hand using the company’s Expansion Cards. While the Framework Laptop 12 can easily run Windows 11, it comes pre-loaded with Linux out of the box when you choose the pre-built option at checkout. For $100-$150 more, you can get Windows 11 or Windows 11 Pro pre-installed instead. However, after spending the past two weeks using the Framework Laptop 12 with Fedora Linux, I didn’t miss Windows nearly as much as I thought.
