Apparently there was a batch of laptops/mainboards that had this problem and I got really unlucky to get both from that batch

Thank you for the recommendation I'll look into it

So I ordered the DIY edition and when it arrived the screw to input the SSD was stripped and wouldn't budge. I emailed their support and they said they would replace the motherboard, and when that arrived it had the exact same stripped screw. I told them about it and they said to ship to their repair center so I did. I didnt receive further details about it for a week so I just decided to refund because it had already been more than a month since i first got it. Of course I could've waited a few more weeks for it but I urgently need a laptop now and don't think I could have waited that long.

Hi thanks for the questions. I plan to just generally use for browsing the web, watching YouTube and of course Lemmy lol. I'd also like to use it for school work and coding. I was hoping to play some games on it yes. The screen should be around 13" as I'll be carrying it out a lot and need it to be portable. Above that its too big for me. I'd like a pretty good battery life around 7+ hour, enough to last an average day of use. No preferences on operating systems but I've only ever used windows and a tiny bit of Linux.

Thanks for the link, I'm looking at the macbooks right now. Do you own one yourself?

What do you need specifically?

Do you have any specific one in mind?

I recently ordered one and had some issues with it so I returned it. Would prefer one from another brand as I did not have a good experience with Framework.

You doing ok op?

Are you on the alpha release channel? Its only on that so far. In a few days it'll go to beta, then stable.
