A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

120 hz dynamically allocated, which means when you read text or do office work you save energy on a lower frame rate, and when you need higher frame rates for scrolling, movie or gaming it automatically increases it up to 120 hz. 120 hz on a 4 k display is something you can't get from other brands. I have to uprade from my Lenovo X1 Carbon and have to buy a complete new Laptop just to get more RAM, but would have to downgrade the display as Lenovo doesn't offer good display options in their Laptops anymore. I'm not going to sacrifice my eye sight to save Lenovo production costs. Fortunately, there is Framework now with their user orientated approach. And in the future, I won't have to throw away a perfectly working high quality display and keyboard just to upgrade RAM, CPU, or ports, as all components can be swapped and independently upgraded on a Framework.

Lenovo has been weird for many years now with their built-to-order configuration options. They often announce 4 to 5 display options when in reality maybe 2 or 3 are available, and some of them only in combination with some weird other configuration options. Then it also depends on country of order.
