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.

Better/premium design because the current design looks like a laptop from the 2010s.

Do you mean becasue of the aspect ratio of the screen?

No, the aspect ratio is good. The webcam design, plastic frame around the display, trackpad can be improved, hinge can be improved, build material, etc.
