From today, new EU ecodesign and energy labelling rules apply to smartphones, cordless phones and tablets placed on the EU market. Designed to boost the product lifespan, energy efficiency, and ease of repair, the measures will also help consumers make more informed and sustainable purchasing choices.

Was pretty sure that cool hardware hacks would start arriving for the #Framework. Let the floodgates open.

@risottobias And the last rant (sorry for polluting your contribution) is about #upgradability and #repairability.
80 to 85% of the environmental cost of this hardware is from manufacturing and distribution.
We shall be able to repair and upgrade those over time. But with soldered memory and storage this is not achievable any more.
I’d happily support thicker and more expensive models if I had the assurance I can maintain them in working condition (hardware and software) longer. 3/3
