Touchscreen? Great!

UHD though? In such a small form factor, it sounds like a needless battery drain. Or are there use cases I'm missing?

I've got good vision and can see the difference

[–] Eiri@lemmy.ca 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Oh I could likely see the difference. But if there's a significant impact on battery life, I would probably be just fine with the lower resolution.

It would suck if the touchscreen option were only available with a 4K resolution because of that.

I have a 3000*2000px Huawei Matebook and battery life is (was) pretty good

This has been the main thing holding me back from purchasing a framework laptop

15" would work too if they went with thin bezels a la XPS.

But 16" is too big.

Touchscreen is the only thing keeping me from a framework (though it would take some time to work up the cash if they announced it)
