MODERATORS
The original framework came with the claim that it WOULD have motherboard upgrades though (and then they delivered). It was only highly praised for what it was at the time because that's what the product was (on top of being a product with pretty good specs) and you should never buy a product on the promise of something else.
I mean lots of people said that about laptops too and then Framework shook things up.
I'm not going to get into it because it's really not relevant to the point, but it is absolutely not proven that modular phones are non-viable. The only two phones to ever tryid it basically never even were given a chance by their manufacturers before they were killed. They just realized that they would never make lots of money on it because you make more money by selling a new phone, then you ever will by just making modular components.
