Project I've been working on that I'm very passionate about. A fully upgradeable gaming handheld where you can upgrade the battery, mainboard (cpu), ram, storage by utilising Frameworks modular components. I will be selling it soon as a DIY kit for those that want another way to reuse (or buy new) their Framework components.
Can be currently upgraded to a Ryzen 7840U mainboard and a 61Wh battery for maximum performance.
Components used in video:
Intel 1260p mainboard
16GB ram
512gb ssd
55Wh Battery
dual speakers
7 inch FHD touchscreen
High speed WIFI & Bluetooth
Wow, this looks cool as fuck.
Thought the same thing, just wondering what the DIY kit might end up costing. I’m also curious to see what would happen if you put in one of the newer 8 core AMD mainboards that frameworks is working on

Thr 7840U is core config wise, the same as the Asus ROG Ally with the Z1 Extreme, just different clocks/binning. (Handhelds are drsigned for 10w handheld use, and 15-30w docked)
The 7840u is designed for 15-30w, but is meant for the 30w usecase. Other chinese pc handhelds like the Ayaneo Air 1s or the GPD Win 4 Pro already use the 7840u im their designs.
cool, guess that means it’ll be competitive with the asus, especially when you factor in the repairability
