I’m coming on 2 weeks of daily driving my Framework laptop. 13th Gen Intel 13inch. I absolutely love it! It is light, keyboard feels great, the chassis doesn’t feel cheap and flimsy, the screen aspect ratio is something that felt odd at first but I’ve come to absolutely love it (especially for spreadsheets), the battery life has been pretty good but I about always have a charger and outlet near me.

BUT

This damn trackpad is awful. I mean, for a laptop that costs what these cost it really is the weakest point. (I could say that about the speakers but I always have my AirPods with me and they work surprisingly well with Windows 11)

Clicking near the top of it is almost impossible. I also notice a solid couple millisecond delay when clicking or tapping. When using an external mouse (normally a G305, or M705) that latency is not there.

If Framework ever comes out with a V2 of the trackpad I would happily THROW my money at them! All in all, I’m very happy with this laptop. Just fix the damn trackpad, please!

    There’s a windows setting which tunes trackpad sensitivity. Maybe you can try playing around with that? I remember I had similarly annoying lag with a Dell XPS which was fixed that way.

    edit: I mean this setting
