This review is so short slighted, and seems to miss the actual point of owning a framework laptop.
I feel like laptop reviewers, who go through dozens of laptops in a year to test new models, are inherently the wrong audience for something that isn't meant to be top of the line horsepower and sleek. No shade to them, I get the desire to have a 3lbs slim device that can video edit on the lap on a subway or whatever, but this thing is big and bulky so that parts are easier to access and nothing is soldered down. It's basically perfect for me as long as it runs.
Yeah sure. The USB-C card is essentially an extender meant to reduce the ware and tear on the motherboards ports and make it flush.
