Framework Laptop 12 2-n-1 version?

Do you think that Framework Laptop 12 (i3-1315U) and (i5-1334U) with Touch-screen, can work with QubesOS?

Sure there is the theoretical possibility. But since it’s on pre-order by the time of writing no one can tell for sure.

Just out of curiosity: Why not buy certified hardware?

ohhhhhhhhhhh. Super. I do search for certified hardware, but it is hard to find more options. Well, I trying to saving money by re-use my 2 Framework Laptop 13; one with Intel Core Ultra 7 165H and regular Intel i7 12th Gen. I bought the first one in Summer 2024 (intel i7 12th Gen) as emergency laptop. Due my Lenovo P51 workstation laptop is in heaven after 8 years of use; in September of 2024, i assemble all the parts to form Framework Laptop 13 of intel Core Ultra 7 165H. Unlucky that Framework Laptop Team is not have none there device certified. I thought at the start will work with any Linux distro at full potential. I encounter let down. In this year of 2025, I discover about the only device certified for QubesOS. I wish to sell this 2 Framework laptop 13. To regret to have it. At website of QubesOS, i can not find where are requirement for the installation.

Oh, I can hardly wait for the first reports on the Framework Laptop 12. 12 inches, completely foldable, stylish green casing… I’m very excited. Plus a laptop that can be repaired for a long time and relatively easily… sounds very tempting at least. Let’s see how it turns out. We’ll know more soon :slight_smile:
