I really like my framework. I don't mind that it is not the fastest in the benchmarks, because faster computers will be released in the future anyway. I don't want to chase the newest and fastest when what I currently have is perfectly adequate for what I want to use my laptop for.
My biggest complaint at this point is that the battery connector is not designed to be disconnected on a regular basis[1]. I personally would prefer to remove the battery much more frequently, because I'm only occasionally disconnected from the grid and keeping the battery unused would be better for its lifetime.
I know that the UEFI has a cool option to disconnect the battery. But this option only stays until the next reboot. I guess that this option is also the reason why the battery connector is so fragile.
On newer firmware versions, we've added the ability to set a charge limit on the battery. By setting the limit to 60-80%, you can also keep the battery healthier for longer. We don't recommend keeping the battery unplugged both to avoid cycling the connector too often and because it'll limit peak performance. Unless you plug in a 100W power adapter, hitting peak Boost power requires briefly drawing off of the battery in addition to the power adapter.
