Framework Laptop 13 Pro: cheaper SSDs ahead, but price hikes loom
TL;DR
Framework says preorder customers for the Laptop 13 Pro will get cheaper PCIe Gen 5 SSDs from ADATA, upgrading 500GB to 1TB at a lower price and adding 1TB/2TB options; however, CPU pricing is expected to rise, so overall prices for new orders may go up in the coming weeks. Shipments were pushed to July due to a glitchy touchpad and a custom display, underscoring ongoing component shortages.
