I am considering a purchase as a student although it is really expensive.

What are your major criticisms of the framework laptop?

E.g.

- I have heard that it discharges battery even while powered off (a very serious issue IMO).

Also, I will be using win10/11 and fedora most likely. So any Linux-related issues (e.g. hardware support) I would really like to know.

Thanks for any ideas.

My only minor complaint is that I wish I had more battery life. What I have is certainly adequate, but an additional 2 or 3 hours is a dream of mine. As I understand it, I can get an additional 10% battery life with Framework's higher capacity battery, which I will do when I notice my stock battery starting to fail.
