If they are all about swappable parts, and being able to upgrade your phone how you want ... Shouldn't this just be a module upgrade... Of the main part? Maybe I don't understand it ... At the very least the old parts should work with the new system right? Unless something major has changed.
Exactly. Framework does it correctly; fairphone does not.
I hope my phone lasts until we get a framework phone.
Might be more challenging.
Laptop, its simple, if wifi and bluetooth works, its gonna work around the entire world (it's all standardized).
Phones? I mean the main functions of a phone is phone calls and data use. Every country has different bands, and some carriers/countries have IMEI whitelisting.
So with framework you can keep the cpu and camera and swap out the Mobo for a better one?
The cpu and mobo are one part, you cant replace just the cpu while keeping your old mobo. But every other part can be individually replaced.
You can see all replacement parts here: https://frame.work/nl/en/marketplace
