Framework, maker of modular and repairable laptops, has spruced its line-up with a completely redesigned 13-inch model sporting the latest Intel CPUs, new components for its 16-inch system, and a dock that lets users add devices like a desktop graphics card.

The California-based biz, which champions the right to repair, detailed its latest gear at an event in San Francisco, saying that each is a direct response to the requests of Framework's user community.

Framework Laptop 13 Pro is a redesign powered by Intel's Core Ultra Series 3 Processors, which the firm claims to delivers more than 20 hours of battery life when video streaming.

The buyer can choose which ports they want via plug-in Expansion Cards, with options including USB-C, USB-A, HDMI, DP, and Ethernet. Memory is also upgradable thanks to the use of an LPCAMM2 module that is screwed flat onto the motherboard.

The display is a purpose-built power-optimized 13.5in screen with touch support and 2880 x 1920 resolution, while the backlit keyboard is available in a range of layout, language, and color options.

This model is available to order with first shipments due in June. Prices start at $1,199 for the DIY Edition (i.e. assemble yourself) or $1,499 for pre-built configurations.

Owners of the Framework Laptop 16 get new component options in the shape of a one-piece haptic touchpad and one-piece keyboard options, plus a new Bezel color and a Ryzen 5 processor configuration, the latter available for pre-order today in a pre-built configuration from $1,599 and a DIY Edition from $1,249.

This laptop already offers buyers a number of input combinations, with the latest haptic touchpad module centering the touchpad in a single rigid aluminum palmrest. Likewise, the one-piece keyboard essentially offers a more seamless fit with the rest of the laptop.

Also coming soon for the Laptop 16 is the OCuLink Dev Kit. This is described as a modular adapter and dock system that lets users connect external hardware such as a desktop graphics card. The OCuLink Dock supports standard off-the-shelf PCIe cards like 100 Gbps NICs, video capture cards, and more.

As its name suggests, this uses OCuLink, the cable version of PCIe, to connect to the laptop, with up to 128 Gbps bidirectional throughput. Users will need an OCuLink Adapter Board in their Laptop 16 Expansion Bay Shell to bring the PCIe interface to a connector on the rear of the system.

Framework says this has been designed as a kit. So you get the core electronics, structure, and reference 3D-printable designs, meaning users can choose what to build around it. Sample images supplied by the firm do not look particularly elegant.

Finally, another product previewed but not yet available is a simple wireless keyboard with an integrated touchpad. This can connect to a system via a Wired (USB-C), Bluetooth, or USB-A Dongle, presumably meaning it can be used with any PC and not just a Framework model.

However, Framework says the circuit board containing the core electronics is a module it will also make available separately in the Framework Marketplace so that enthusiasts can build their own wireless keyboard designs. ®
