The nothing phone never got me really excited

The concept was neat but not great.

Framework laptop remains my new hope for the future of laptops tho.

I'm with you. Framework repairable/upgradeable laptops are super exciting. For a while, I thought they had a phone in development. Is that still a thing?

Fairphone is already doing it.

Ara was viable technically, but isnt profitable enough for major companies to be interested.

I have a framework laptop. It is awesome. I would recommend it to anyone!
