Framework Laptop 13 Pro reimagines modular laptops with a bigger battery and touchscreen

Framework unveils the Laptop 13 Pro, a largely redesigned, modular upgrade that introduces Core Ultra 3 CPUs, a larger 74Wh battery, a touchscreen, and a graphite enclosure. While some components remain interchangeable with older Laptop 13 boards, compatibility is not universal, notably around the new battery, case, and RAM (LPDDR5X via LPCAMM2). The company offers upgrade kits, new accessories, and several configuration options, with pre-orders open and shipping starting in June.

However, the review highlights several issues such as unresponsiveness, display anomalies, and heating problems, indicating that the laptop may need more refinement before it can be considered a stable and reliable product.

Framework unveils modular gaming laptop with upgradeable components.

Framework has released new mainboards carrying Intel's 13th generation Core CPUs and will soon offer AMD's rival products for both new machines and upgrades. The company has also addressed user complaints with a new hinge, bigger battery, matte display cover, and louder speakers. Framework promises price parity between Intel and AMD's mainboards and will open pre-orders for both at the same time. The company has also partnered with CoolerMaster to produce a standalone case for its mainboards. Pre-built base models of both Intel and AMD versions of the Framework Laptop 13 with Windows 11 will cost $1,049 before build-to-order upgrades.
