Framework Laptop 13 Pro: Free SSD upgrade and discount for pre-order customers.
Framework has just announced an upgrade to the ADATA XPG MARS 970 hard drive for all Laptop 13 Pro pre-orders, increasing storage capacity and performance at a lower cost.
Framework has just announced good news for the community of users waiting for the Laptop 13 Pro: all pre-orders will receive a free SSD upgrade. Notably, this component change not only improves specifications but also helps reduce the overall cost of the order for consumers.
A leap forward in performance with the ADATA XPG MARS 970
Specifically, Framework will replace the original PCIe Gen 5 drives with the ADATA XPG MARS 970 series. This SSD model is highly regarded for its performance, power efficiency, and long-term reliability. This transition will be applied automatically to all customers who have previously placed orders.
This change addresses the challenges of temperature and energy efficiency, which are major obstacles for next-generation SSDs in thin and light mobile devices. The ADATA XPG MARS 970 promises a smoother experience in heavy data processing tasks without compromising component lifespan.
Double the benefits: Double the storage capacity, at a lower price.
One of the biggest highlights of this update is the storage upgrade policy. Customers who initially chose the 500GB option will be upgraded directly to the 1TB version of the XPG MARS 970. Remarkably, the price for this new 1TB version is even lower than the list price of the previous 500GB version.
Framework's system automatically adjusts the bill, saving users a significant amount of money right before they receive their machine. Currently, this line of hard drives is offered in two main configurations: 1TB and 2TB, allowing users to choose according to their needs.
Warning about CPU price volatility in the near future.
While delivering good news about SSDs, Framework also issued an important note regarding the global component market. The company warned that processor (CPU) prices are expected to rise in the near future due to supply chain fluctuations. This means the total cost of the Laptop 13 Pro system for new orders could increase in the coming weeks.
To ensure customer satisfaction, the company recommends that prospective buyers place their orders now to secure the current discounted price. Framework also affirms that all pre-orders are fully refundable once official shipping begins, providing buyers with greater peace of mind before upgrading their systems.
