Overview
- Framework announced on June 10–11 that first-batch Laptop 13 Pro deliveries have shifted from late June to late July with some units now expected in early August and a small risk some batches could slip into early September.
- The company found two faults during production ramp: a haptic touchpad that could reset after repeated clicks and a display panel initialization bug.
- Engineering work with suppliers Lite-On and Boréas identified a grounding flaw in the touchpad’s PCB and prompted a new PCB spin that internal samples show resolves the issue.
- Framework’s display supplier CSOT supplied updated panel firmware to fix the initialization bug, and the vendor says panels with the new firmware are entering production.
- Mainboard shipments with Intel Core Ultra Series 3 remain on schedule, customers can add LPCAMM memory or request full refunds, and Framework’s open updates and extra validation testing aim to avoid wider quality problems and delayed reviews.
