I think Framework and Fairphone are solving similar but different problems.
Fairphone is "keep this phone as configured working."
Framework is more "I have this laptop but it can become this other newer laptop without me needing to buy all the parts again AND I can buy replacement parts."
It's really not even remotely the same calculus in my book.
Yes, but replacing the track pad is ALSO in the context of "you can have the latest and greatest laptop CPU."
You just can't do that with the Fairphone.
A Framework could hypothetically last forever. A Fairphone still has an 8 year lifespan.
It isn't just the promise of the ability to replace these components, but the ability to upgrade them.
