Thinking of switching back to my T480

Late last year I purchased a 12th gen framework laptop and honestly it’s been pretty good. My biggest issues with it are really the hinge is not strong at all even with the upgraded one, the keyboard is trash, lack of trackpoint with buttons, and lack of IO. Don’t get me wrong I really like this device but I keep thinking I should switch back to my T480. Has anyone else switched back from a framework?

Nuuskis,

What kind of question is this? Sell the Framework and use the money for maintenance of T480. Buy new batteries (Lenovo original if you can find a source) and dual-pipe heatsink (if your unit is missing the Nvidia gpu). Clean the dust and with compressed air and replace the thermal paste.

That T480 will serve you eternally. Especially with Linux. If someone is able to port Coreboot with Coreboot configurator into that model, donate some coffee money for the devs.

What are you even asking? There’s literally zero reasons you to force you to prefer Framework to T480. And some other might prefer Macbook over anything etc. The personal preferences aren’t a reason to force or argue.
