Framework Laptop 13 DIY Edition (Ryzen AI 7 350, 32GB, 1TB) Review

Framework Laptop 13 DIY Edition, AMD Ryzen AI 7 350, Radeon 860M graphics, 32GB DDR5 SO-DIMM, 1TB M.2 NVMe SSD, 13.5 inch 2.2K matte IPS display, USB4, modular repairable laptop.

The modular, repairable Framework Laptop 13 on AMD's Ryzen AI 300 platform: standard SO-DIMM RAM and a standard M.2 slot in a chassis explicitly designed to be opened and serviced.

Performance

AMD Ryzen AI 7 350 (8 cores) with integrated Radeon 860M graphics. Framework also offers Ryzen AI 5 340 and Ryzen AI 9 HX 370 options in the same chassis for lower cost or higher performance.

Upgradability

This is the anti-soldered design point of the category: standard DDR5 SO-DIMMs (2 slots, up to 96GB) and a standard M.2 2280 NVMe slot, both explicitly designed for end users to open and replace. This 32GB/1TB configuration ships with both RAM slots filled and the one storage slot occupied, but every component is a swap away from being upgraded, unlike soldered competitors at this size.

Battery life

61Wh battery, rated by Framework to retain about 80% capacity after 1,000 charge cycles — a durability figure rather than a runtime one; Framework does not publish a light-load hours figure.

Display

13.5-inch 3:2 matte display; this configuration uses the base 2.2K (2256x1504) panel at 60Hz. A 2.8K (2880x1920) panel is also offered.

Design and ports

1.3kg. Modular Expansion Card port system (USB4/USB-C bays that swap for USB-A, HDMI, DisplayPort, storage, etc.), 1080p webcam. Wi-Fi 6E.
