Comment on Framework won’t be just a laptop company anymore

  It’s one of the slot in ones though right? so it doesn’t really count - it effectively integrated.

    It counts because the adapter slot cannot be used for something else. It is different with the smaller 13 inch model.

      I don’t understand this objection. I mean, sure, if you put an audio block in a slot for the headphone jack, it can’t be used for something else, but let’s say they omitted a slot and just put a fixed headphone jack there. I assume that you wouldn’t be happier with that.

      I could maybe understand it if normally a headphone jack on a laptop went somewhere other than where the slots would be, but on my Thinkpad, it’s where the slots are on a Framework laptop.

        let’s say they omitted a slot and just put a fixed-into-the-case headphone jack there.

        Or let’s not because that isn’t what happened in the 13 inch model.

        Point is: Placing hope into a Framework phone with a headphone jack is IMO misplaced based on Framework’s most recent track record. Not even Apple got rid of headphone jacks in MacBook Air.

  I don’t even use built-in headphone jacks anymore. I use external DACs with 2.5, 4.4 and quarter inch. Good thing for me that I can get an extra port while others can use a headphone jack still.
