A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

Touchscreen is the only thing keeping me from a framework (though it would take some time to work up the cash if they announced it)

Touchscreen? Great!

UHD though? In such a small form factor, it sounds like a needless battery drain. Or are there use cases I'm missing?

I've got good vision and can see the difference

[–] [email protected] 3 points 19 hours ago (1 children)

Oh I could likely see the difference. But if there's a significant impact on battery life, I would probably be just fine with the lower resolution.

It would suck if the touchscreen option were only available with a 4K resolution because of that.

I have a 3000*2000px Huawei Matebook and battery life is (was) pretty good

This has been the main thing holding me back from purchasing a framework laptop

15" would work too if they went with thin bezels a la XPS.

But 16" is too big.
