The benefits of having both is that you don't sacrifice performance for portability. You have the best of both worlds. However, that desktop could probably benefit from an upgrade.

The AMD models have better battery life than the Intel models (I have a 12th gen and get about 3-4 hours of light use or like 1-2 hours of heavy use on a full charge). Plus the upgraded amd model comes with the new larger battery.

In addition to my Framework I also have an HP victus gaming laptop that I bought as a family computer (I'm staying with a couple family members while finishing grad school).

Agreed. The two main companies I recommend for quality chargers are Anker and Ugreen.

I've never heard of Teknet, but I have an anker wall charger and 2 Anker car chargers that are still running strong after a couple of years. So my guess is with the Anker you got unlucky and found a faulty unit.

I have this and it fits my laptop, iPad, chargers, and accessories and I still have room for notebooks and school stuff.

A few reasons:

It'll sit flush with the body making it easier to access.

If the USB port gets damaged you can replace the expansion card instead of having to try and fix it.

It looks better.
