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.

    the fan is noisy AF with the highly pitched noise while the speakers are anemic. 10% battery drain over night when not connected to a power cable and in suspend mode under Ubuntu 22.04, which works really well otherwise.

      The suspend battery drain is likely due to using modern standby, the framework supports S3 sleep which I’ve found is not that bad with battery life
