Comment on Ask HN: Does the Framework laptop stand the test of time?parent

Comments

Glad to hear it! I'm interested to know, though:

How rigid would you say the frame is for Frameworks? Do you feel any flex at all when typing? Screen shake?

Over time, some of the laptops I've tried (cheap and expensive, many different brands) just feel like they start to fall apart. Either the screen hinges are junk and fail, leading to screen shake/nod whenever I type...or the frame is too weak, and the laptop itself starts to bend inward over time because I type hard.

If I could get something with an incredibly rugged frame, and excellent hinges, it'd be wonderful. I've seriously considered Toughbook's in the past, but the keyboard feeling for them is atrocious and the specs are always too weak.
