Framework also uses a USB-C adapter. It costs 20 Euro: https://frame.work/products/audio-expansion-card
That's great! But Framework also includes an audio jack built-in. As should everyone.
Nope, the new 16 inch does not. The older 13 does.
What?! That's ridiculous. Hotswap ports are great for high throughput devices requiring PCIe lanes, but taking the audio port out gains you literally nothing. There should be some standard ports + hotswappable ports.
I also wish they could find a way to redesign the Ethernet port with a hinged jaw or something so it isn't so massive, I wouldn't want to leave that plugged in.
Oh, the 13. That's what I was looking at.
