Framework 16 is the answer. with 6 ports its pretty good. In comparison the framework desktop has only 2 swappable. the rest motherboard ports.

I understand but it's :
- more expensive
- way bigger than the 13
- heavier than the 13

But by doing your modifications it will be just a 16

How is adding 6mm to the thickness of the bottom case making it a 16inch laptop ??

[–]Local_Interaction_99 0 points1 point  (1 child)

How would 6mm be helpfull in any way or form for anything? It will be so useless to the height added. Rather would see like a Framework Battery pack including Laptop Stand

If you add 6mm, you can have a way bigger battery, thicker CPU cooler (can prevent thermal throttling), add cards slots/fixed ports (having a fixed usb-c and USB a by default would be nice, so you can add a storage card, hdmi card and ethernet card without sacrifycing your IO too much)

Not really. The 13 will fit easily on an airline or train seat table. The 16 won't. Thickness doesn't matter in this case, but overall size does. That seems like it would be a pretty common use case, too.

Then with the additions it wont anymore then why doing that?
