I CAN justify it... But still myself needing something that they don't just offer which takes them out of the running unfortunately. And yes, I load up the DIY tool just to make sure it's not there yet every time someone in my house needs a new laptop.

I’ll check once a year to see if they finally added a decent OLED display option with 100% DCI-P3 coverage. Since that has never come true, I never bothered going any further.

Are there any good OLED laptops on the market? I just checked the Framework forums and it looks like people are hacking OLED displays into their existing laptops but yea, that's definitely not for me

[–] toastal@lemmy.ml 1 points 2 years ago

Lots of them actually. It’s not that niche anymore. In my experience, ASUS generally has the nicest ones… & they offer OLED on even midrange laptops (good marketing idea IMO since it’s gonna look nice in a show room & it’s just looks nice so it feels nicer). The BIOS upgrades with them has always been safe & easy, but their Linux support is just mid (they don’t go out of their way to help support or anything).

Probably a dozen times before I pulled the trigger.

Too many times to admit. I even had a order in but cancelled. I just can't excuse myself that kind of money.

And I'm a freelance IT dude!

Twice - One time to get a quote, the second time for the actual order when i was ready.

I just did for the first time and I’m not sure what I was expecting, but kinda spendy. A good UI for designing it though.

Coolest non-Apple laptop on the market. Want to buy, but it'd get no use after the first week. Jealous of Linux users who get to justify these.

About a dozen times, to daydream and check if it’s available on my country. My laptop is on its last days

[–] yessikg@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 years ago

About 5 times before I finally ordered

[–] onelikeandidie@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

I've gone about 15+ times on my own, a lot more just to show friends. I still haven't bought mine, my thinkpad still works fine which is both good and bad since I really want a frame.work
