In a statement, the company said it would be introducing a new 13-inch laptop built on Intel Core Ultra Series 1 processors, an optional 13.5” 2880x1920 120 Hz display on both Intel and AMD systems, a new webcam with 9.2MP image sensor, and configurations designed for businesses and professionals with a 3-year warranty.

Framework founder Nirav Patel said the prices of the Framework Laptop 13 (AMD Ryzen 7040 Series) systems would also be lowered.

"We designed Framework Laptop 13 to last, and we’re eager to make it better each year. We’ve upgraded nearly every part since first shipping in 2021, and we read through press reviews and feedback constantly to find ways to improve it further," he explained.

"We’ve also revamped our software pipeline, with new firmware and driver releases now landing regularly for each product."

Patel said the new Framework Laptop 13 was the fourth iteration with Intel processors, with performance being optimised each time.

"With Intel Core Ultra Series 1, Intel delivered major improvements in efficiency and battery life, especially on use cases like video playback.

"With a new graphics architecture, up to 6 Performance cores and 8 Efficient cores, and support for up to a massive 96 GB of DDR5 memory, the new generation drives productivity performance and a huge leap in gaming capability," he added.

"In integrating this processor, we’ve redesigned our thermal system and tuned fan control algorithms to keep the system cooler while reducing noise."

He said the new models could be ordered right away.
