It started with notebooks, but that wasn’t the master plan.

    I would love to see them make modular and repairable:

    • Phones
    • Tablets
    • 2-in-1s
    • Televisions
    • Monitors
    • Cameras
    • WiFi routers
    • Printers (copier, scanner)

    Those things so often end up in the dump just because one small part fails, or gets too outdated. Think about all the parts in a wifi router that work just fine, but get thrown away anyway, because the radio module doesn’t support the shiny new WiFi version.

      I hope not phones. Fairphone has the repairable market, and that would take away from Framework as well as Framework taking away from Fairphone, making both weaker.

      Maybe tablets would make sense, if you could reuse components from the laptops.

        Fairphone has the repairable market

        In Europe.

        Framework sells their products in more markets, including North America, which adds another 600 million potential customers.
