00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,259
18 months ago I made the unprecedented decision to invest in a fledgling laptop

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:10,500
company called framework they promised upgradeability they promised

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:14,820
sustainability they were going to change the industry and all they asked for was

4
00:00:12,840 --> 00:00:19,500
a small loan of a quarter million dollars I was so impressed with my first

5
00:00:17,760 --> 00:00:24,420
hands-on experience though that I not only bought a laptop for myself for the

6
00:00:21,660 --> 00:00:28,920
first time in 16 years I also invested my money in their company but looking at

7
00:00:26,939 --> 00:00:32,880
what they're announcing today it's clear that I made a fundamental mistake

8
00:00:31,320 --> 00:00:38,460
I should have bought more of their company we have got AMD Frameworks we've

9
00:00:36,120 --> 00:00:44,100
got larger Frameworks with even more customization and upgradability and if

10
00:00:41,100 --> 00:00:47,160
your mind isn't blown yet dedicated GPU

11
00:00:44,100 --> 00:00:49,020
module is this a gaming framework the

12
00:00:47,160 --> 00:00:52,800
best part is we've barely scratched the surface so we are going to sink our

13
00:00:50,879 --> 00:00:58,320
teeth into these and go as deep as we're well allowed to go given that I'm being

14
00:00:55,320 --> 00:01:00,239
carefully supervised just to be clear I

15
00:00:58,320 --> 00:01:04,739
can open this up all the way no I can tell them what chips are in the Jeep can

16
00:01:02,520 --> 00:01:10,260
I at least tell them about our sponsor sure you green do you primarily work on

17
00:01:07,799 --> 00:01:14,280
a laptop increase your productivity with ugreen's Docking Station you can connect

18
00:01:12,240 --> 00:01:19,080
all the peripherals you want such as multiple monitors keyboards mice all

19
00:01:16,799 --> 00:01:23,580
through a single Hub check it out at the link below the AMD edition of the

20
00:01:21,119 --> 00:01:29,000
framework laptop is a thing of beauty it comes in the same elegant and upgradable

21
00:01:26,040 --> 00:01:36,240
13-inch chassis as before but inside beats the heart of pure diluted ryzen

22
00:01:32,640 --> 00:01:39,420
7000. a team-red CPU option has been

23
00:01:36,240 --> 00:01:40,740
often on the most requested feature for

24
00:01:39,420 --> 00:01:44,460
framework to offer on their machines Trading Places only with a larger

25
00:01:43,619 --> 00:01:51,060
battery so they did that too they've gone from

26
00:01:47,520 --> 00:01:52,740
55 watt hours to 61 Watt hours but if

27
00:01:51,060 --> 00:01:58,200
you own a previous generation framework like me and you worry about

28
00:01:54,780 --> 00:01:59,880
intercompatibility fear not the size is

29
00:01:58,200 --> 00:02:04,680
actually identical and the bumping capacity comes purely from chemistry

30
00:02:02,040 --> 00:02:08,700
improvements that's really good news but wait there's more the same 13 inch

31
00:02:07,079 --> 00:02:13,520
chassis that I've been using not to mention upgrading ever since I got it at

32
00:02:11,400 --> 00:02:18,599
launch is getting even more options Intel 13th gen core processors are also

33
00:02:16,860 --> 00:02:23,940
being announced for both brand new builds and for folks who want to reuse

34
00:02:21,420 --> 00:02:27,900
their existing systems so if you're on previous gen Hardware you're going to

35
00:02:25,680 --> 00:02:33,780
have to make a hard Choice do you go Intel or do you go AMD

36
00:02:30,239 --> 00:02:35,760
which actually leads me which one's

37
00:02:33,780 --> 00:02:40,560
better it's a personal preference right but okay how do I ask this again uh

38
00:02:38,520 --> 00:02:45,300
which one should I get whatever you like which one will you get whatever I like

39
00:02:43,019 --> 00:02:49,080
oh this guy clearly doesn't want to make either Intel or AMD mad they've also

40
00:02:47,580 --> 00:02:54,300
been addressing some of the pain points that have been discovered now that thousands of Frameworks are out in the

41
00:02:51,900 --> 00:02:58,080
wild I'm talking upgraded stiffer hinges louder speakers not to mention we'll see

42
00:02:57,300 --> 00:03:04,140
that now you don't a matte screen option ah

43
00:03:01,920 --> 00:03:08,599
are we getting a touch screen too that I can't comment on but we will not have it

44
00:03:06,120 --> 00:03:08,599
in this release

45
00:03:09,120 --> 00:03:15,000
okay I'll wait one thing you don't need to wait for is our new 3D down jacket

46
00:03:13,260 --> 00:03:19,620
it's lightweight worn and only from lttstore.com now hold on you might say I

47
00:03:17,879 --> 00:03:24,060
thought framework's whole schtick is sustainability well that old board you

48
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:29,879
pulled out is still good what do do we scrap it now ah I'm so glad you asked we

49
00:03:27,239 --> 00:03:34,019
showed off a cool 3D printed case last year that you could set up for yourself

50
00:03:31,440 --> 00:03:37,920
to turn it into a little Slimline computer but for the folks without

51
00:03:35,580 --> 00:03:41,819
access to a 3D printer there's a new better solution framework has teamed up

52
00:03:39,840 --> 00:03:45,180
with Cooler Master to offer a motherboard case also known as a case by

53
00:03:43,860 --> 00:03:48,900
the way in case you guys were confused meaning that your old board can

54
00:03:46,980 --> 00:03:55,680
effectively become your new media center now enough about that let's get to the

55
00:03:52,019 --> 00:03:57,239
really exciting part look at this look

56
00:03:55,680 --> 00:04:02,580
how much bigger it is and bigger is just the start there's

57
00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:06,720
only so much that I can say about the all-new 16-inch framework laptop at the

58
00:04:04,739 --> 00:04:13,140
moment but there is nothing stopping me from demonstrating its biggest party

59
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:15,299
trick a removable dedicated GPU while

60
00:04:13,140 --> 00:04:20,220
the mxm form factor has died more deaths than Kenny McCormick framework developed

61
00:04:17,519 --> 00:04:24,840
their own solution and easily swappable expansion Bay that is wired up with a

62
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:29,580
custom PCIe by 8 interface fun fact by the way it actually uses the same

63
00:04:26,639 --> 00:04:33,840
connector as Dell developed like back when a couple years ago I guess it was

64
00:04:31,020 --> 00:04:37,500
but since Dell isn't framework and didn't publish their pin out framework

65
00:04:35,699 --> 00:04:42,479
had to develop their own pinout which this time around will be published to

66
00:04:39,900 --> 00:04:46,800
allow board Partners or realistically anyone to use it is that right yeah

67
00:04:45,479 --> 00:04:51,080
absolutely if another laptop manufacturer said you know hey we really

68
00:04:48,540 --> 00:04:55,560
like this thing we're gonna have a thing don't you love this attitude I can't

69
00:04:53,639 --> 00:04:59,880
tell you who they partnered with to build this and they won't even let me

70
00:04:58,199 --> 00:05:03,960
take the cooler off it to take a look I don't even know if it's AMD or NVIDIA at

71
00:05:01,500 --> 00:05:08,880
this point but what I do know is that with all the data sheets that they're

72
00:05:05,520 --> 00:05:11,100
creating and aib like an ASUS or an MSI

73
00:05:08,880 --> 00:05:16,259
could easily develop something for it now a GPU and a framework laptop is

74
00:05:14,460 --> 00:05:20,940
pretty high up there on my personal wish list because that power turns these

75
00:05:18,900 --> 00:05:24,720
things into something that's actually a viable option for us to deploy to our

76
00:05:22,860 --> 00:05:30,780
team a writer might be fine with a 13 inch but engineers and editors

77
00:05:28,320 --> 00:05:36,479
come on they need a GPU and the best part it's not just for gpus

78
00:05:33,600 --> 00:05:40,320
the idea for the expansion Bay here is identical to their i o modules that they

79
00:05:38,759 --> 00:05:47,460
have on the regular framework laptop open source and completely customizable

80
00:05:43,860 --> 00:05:52,139
this space here where a GPU might sit

81
00:05:47,460 --> 00:05:55,080
could be anything a pair of m.2 ssds and

82
00:05:52,139 --> 00:05:59,759
AI accelerator even an extended battery that's right removable batteries are

83
00:05:57,419 --> 00:06:03,720
back y'all and there are even plans to offer an external caddy so that you can

84
00:06:01,919 --> 00:06:08,820
use their old batteries like the internal ones as portable battery packs

85
00:06:05,880 --> 00:06:13,020
and you don't even have to be limited by the exact shape of one particular

86
00:06:11,039 --> 00:06:17,940
expansion module in fact if you look closely these two are slightly different

87
00:06:15,960 --> 00:06:24,060
because a GPU needs a little bit more space than say a couple of m.2 ssds so

88
00:06:22,500 --> 00:06:28,560
if you're willing to accept the compromise of adding a little bit of

89
00:06:26,280 --> 00:06:32,759
extra you know Z height to the back of your laptop I mean you could see

90
00:06:30,180 --> 00:06:36,360
conceivably just about anything thrown in here let's say you wanted to swap out

91
00:06:34,560 --> 00:06:42,120
your GPU for something like a capture card part of the spec is external facing

92
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:43,680
i o and then oh this phrase is an

93
00:06:42,120 --> 00:06:49,340
uncomfortable question again with the E-Waste what do we do with this GPU like

94
00:06:46,080 --> 00:06:52,139
slap it in a desktop well yes actually

95
00:06:49,340 --> 00:06:56,580
nothing would prevent the development of a simple carrier card the same sort of

96
00:06:54,660 --> 00:07:02,460
thing we've actually seen for mxm gpus in the past but also no gets even better

97
00:07:00,479 --> 00:07:06,840
in the future framework wants to give you the option of taking this and

98
00:07:04,199 --> 00:07:10,860
putting it in an external GPU dock which they have already mocked up and are

99
00:07:08,699 --> 00:07:15,180
going to be showing off very soon so that a friend or someone could use your

100
00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:19,919
old GPU with their laptop one of the things that framework learned in the

101
00:07:17,039 --> 00:07:24,960
development of this product is just how divisive numb pads are on laptops

102
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:30,780
personally I don't care for them I'd rather have these LEDs on the side as it

103
00:07:27,780 --> 00:07:33,599
turns out nearly 50 percent of you do

104
00:07:30,780 --> 00:07:37,440
want them whether it's for data entry or just extra keys for gaming inputs

105
00:07:36,060 --> 00:07:41,699
fortunately this is framework David I'm about to

106
00:07:39,660 --> 00:07:46,800
blow your mind check this out I pop these out right here and here

107
00:07:44,819 --> 00:07:51,259
slide these off these modules

108
00:07:48,539 --> 00:07:56,580
no no no no no no these modules replaceable okay so we can put in wood

109
00:07:54,599 --> 00:08:00,960
grain accents or something like that okay if you want like carbon fiber

110
00:07:59,039 --> 00:08:06,000
they've got all kinds of different ideas for this but but wait but wait it gets

111
00:08:03,599 --> 00:08:10,520
even dumber check this out trackpad comes off

112
00:08:07,919 --> 00:08:19,259
keyboard oh oh oh wait numpad on the right wait

113
00:08:15,180 --> 00:08:21,360
wait numpad on the left

114
00:08:19,259 --> 00:08:27,060
oh wait oh but I hate it when my trackpad isn't centered and my keyboard

115
00:08:24,419 --> 00:08:33,360
oh no up it's right under the keyboard are you kidding me right now oh yeah oh

116
00:08:30,000 --> 00:08:34,919
yeah this is wild you know those Niche

117
00:08:33,360 --> 00:08:40,140
keyboards that you've seen with a second screen or whatever well framework has

118
00:08:37,560 --> 00:08:43,740
been paying attention that's right if a numpad doesn't offer quite the

119
00:08:41,880 --> 00:08:48,779
functionality that you want to see how about a power sipping memory LCD that

120
00:08:46,380 --> 00:08:53,820
might be more your thing now this one might never see the light of day I mean

121
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:57,899
they'd like to cram a touch screen in here or you know different types of

122
00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:02,279
display Technologies but that is a lot to pack into something at this height

123
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:03,839
while retaining durability but at least

124
00:09:02,279 --> 00:09:08,580
you know that it's something that's on their radar the best part is that this

125
00:09:06,060 --> 00:09:13,080
modular input system doesn't end at just being able to move the keyboard back and

126
00:09:10,260 --> 00:09:17,100
forth and stick on a numpad in addition to all the same languages that they

127
00:09:15,060 --> 00:09:21,180
already support on the 13 inch framework there's four more languages that they're

128
00:09:18,899 --> 00:09:26,580
adding to 13 inch that will also come to this down the road and Linux users

129
00:09:24,000 --> 00:09:30,540
Rejoice on the 16 inch they're even going to build a keyboard option that

130
00:09:27,959 --> 00:09:33,899
replaces the Windows key with a Super Key I guess the Windows logo is that

131
00:09:32,940 --> 00:09:39,420
offensive yeah I don't know how many of those you're gonna sell we're going to see so

132
00:09:37,260 --> 00:09:43,740
while in theory you could put a 13 inch board inside the 16 inch chassis it

133
00:09:41,820 --> 00:09:47,100
would be a total Frankenstein job and it wouldn't make a ton of sense since you

134
00:09:45,660 --> 00:09:51,420
wouldn't even be able to hook up some of the new i o oh wait did I even mention

135
00:09:49,140 --> 00:09:57,300
the new i o because of the larger size there are six packs now of their hot

136
00:09:54,660 --> 00:10:01,080
swappable i o modules instead of just four they've also got a new retention

137
00:09:58,860 --> 00:10:08,519
clip down here that's I don't like the red I like green for okay to remove it's

138
00:10:04,560 --> 00:10:12,060
a hard ux problem yeah they like red for

139
00:10:08,519 --> 00:10:14,700
not the default state right so I'm like

140
00:10:12,060 --> 00:10:19,260
oh yeah okay I guess I guess I get it oh wait we didn't even talk about the new

141
00:10:16,560 --> 00:10:25,620
module they did remove the three and a half inch Jack from the 16-inch laptop

142
00:10:21,380 --> 00:10:28,740
but they developed a 3.5 millimeter

143
00:10:25,620 --> 00:10:30,959
module so you can have as many three and

144
00:10:28,740 --> 00:10:34,800
a half mil Jacks as you want could I configure these for like surround sound

145
00:10:32,459 --> 00:10:40,980
or something you could theoretically wow wow so you get more ports on your laptop

146
00:10:38,399 --> 00:10:45,360
for everyday use and it also means that the community who supports framework

147
00:10:42,959 --> 00:10:49,800
either by buying these things or by building modules are going to be having

148
00:10:47,279 --> 00:10:53,220
a field day with all the new ideas that are going to come to light and that

149
00:10:51,300 --> 00:10:56,519
Community is only getting bigger and better you guys might have noticed that

150
00:10:55,019 --> 00:11:00,060
Frameworks webshop is called the framework Marketplace that's because

151
00:10:58,320 --> 00:11:04,140
it's going to be expanding to allow third-party manufacturers to sell

152
00:11:01,920 --> 00:11:08,459
directly to Consumers as well as offering a space for consumers to sell

153
00:11:06,180 --> 00:11:13,320
and trade used components with each other and for that I owe everyone

154
00:11:10,560 --> 00:11:18,360
involved a massive and sincere thank you a modular laptop like this is such an

155
00:11:16,440 --> 00:11:22,620
important Mission and it only works if everyone agrees it's time to move Beyond

156
00:11:20,640 --> 00:11:25,740
disposable electronics and focus on repair and sustainability and framework

157
00:11:24,300 --> 00:11:29,339
has committed to that in more ways than one from things like choosing to use

158
00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:33,779
cast magnesium alloy for their shell instead of Machining it I actually saw

159
00:11:31,320 --> 00:11:37,560
this thing realized there's not a single screw on the bottom which is cool right

160
00:11:35,880 --> 00:11:42,120

13th gen in it or AMD and if I broke it
