I really don’t ‘get’ buzz around the modification. For one, I like the set and forest-this tech. Once my keyboard gets into a situation, I do not regularly flip the kick like a finger board to put a strap on extra bits. For another, my desk is dirty because it’s without the growing pile of modular attachments.
As much as I like to play with PC Hardware, this is the expensive Lego, I have not yet seen a really killer use for modular tech that has already gone into my vein.
Before I really enter it, let me clarify myself on a couple of things. One of the things, I am not only skeptical about the paraffline with modular attachments that enhance the features of the base unit, but also the modular upgrade system for desktops and laptops.
For another, I’m not setting my gaze on customized, accessible hardware, such as Joyce Stick Toppers, on Microsoft’s Encyclopped Joyce Stick. Although you need to print the topper of your choice, these changing parts are a great example of the inclination on the modular design that allows a large -scale -made cut to support different types of movements. People are being able to prepare a controller that really works for them comes out of my criticism.
Although what comes in my eyes is the dark mountain of silence. Even with Swash Media dock and number pads that can be connected on both sides of the high premium keyboard, the Dark Mount failed to sell me on a more widely modular design.
It is not as if you are silent in the Perry Ferrels in any way. As I say in my Dark Mount reviews, it’s still a Really The good sounds rotated with a sound mechanical keyboard-even if I personally want to be silent, I went with some different convention of the naming.
The imagery of the Number Pad is probably a welcome involvement for the left -handed people. However, as a ritual, I just don’t see myself the most benefit of this feature. (Here the left -packed nipples will have to stand up to peek, this is the only place for nausea.)
In addition, I just don’t understand the need for a 60 % keyboard with a number pad attachment, which makes it even bigger – why a complete, unmanaged keyboard is not raised in the first place? However, the keyboard and the Perry Ferrles are just part of the picture.
According to Joyel’s review, the Constitutional 3 controller offers module so that you can play your way, but according to Joel’s review, after nooning with buttons layout in the Sidebar menu. The modular design is thus flourish, often bent on plug and play fantasy, which is, in fact, a bit more clear.
Another thing I know, I know that I will lose these spare controller Bubbons on the first occasion (as soon as I removed my eyes from them, my dark mount dust corps disappeared into falsehood).
But handhelds are not the only hardware that offers such head scripts – as I said above, what is gaming PC if ridiculous not expensive?
This is a truthful framework not only takes the heart to the heart with its small AMD Streax Hallow desktop machines, but also with its modular laptop.
In his framework 13 laptop review, Dave described the company’s latest laptop so far. But although he liked it a lot, he also enjoyed improving the better screen for his old framework laptop.
If there is no expensive lego, what is the gaming PC?
Buying a new laptop at regular intervals is less environmentally effective, offering framework cut bits, which you can repair and upgrade yourself for years to come. Even you can pick up old or other hand upgrade modules The market for frameworkAs long as the modular enterprises go, it seems really very optimistic to me.
But even the modular, the more accessible to the repair tech, despite the purpose of creating a means of baspenching manufacturing The cheapest version of framework 13 is still available I cost more than the grandson than I want. The framework is far from a huge company, which means that they are not producing the price of huge batches. It also increases the cost of production and there are some ways to explain this premium price point for consumers.
And as such Recycling your old upgrade modules if they may not be reused or repairedLoop is not yet as circular as I want. If you are based in the US, you have Some options to send parts of your recycled frameworkAnd if you are living anywhere in the world, very few options.
For this, choosing the framework is a bit unfair, as it is a very problem that the entire tech industry is struggling to compete with. For example, about the best years of the UK’s electronics recycling, Jacob’s 2023 feature is likely to be left behind-but let’s at least put a pin in your environmental anxiety for at least some paragraphs.
A potential competitor can soon get out of the complex electronics, but details about his own modular laptop are a touch on the ground.

Of the project If Design Award 2025 Page Type C also promises USB interface, as well as “reducing electronic waste by economic performance, and stability.”
Even Intel, All his concerns about the growing e -West.Yet a modular laptop forcibly is not meant to break.
The company is detecting the concepts of modular internal parts, which includes a basic main board with additional io modules, though its projects are not easily separated from the GPUs. The company discusses “using slide rails” to make the desktop easy, but it does not even touch the possibility of a more portable form factor.
One thing I really liked about the Dark Mount is that, instead of using an arcket socket, which is all their own, the traditional USB-C connection for the modular attachments of its keyboard should be selected. Whatever difficulties I can do to those who suck these suicide into my preferred trend (find that you need to lightly press the slider under the number pad, and not just forced it), it is certainly not comparable to the problem that some people allegedly had a nomenclature with a Slot-Name Slot.
I hope that the USB-C-C-which already offers modular bubbons through numerous tech companies-this field has a large part of the standard port, which is better supported by the company’s multiple wall garden.
Even as a tech journalist, I am not going to have a part of something on something off the assembly line on an annual or even a semi -regular basis, so I like the idea of modular upgrade at least in theory.
If I am fully honest, the standard modular socket also offered mental peace during my early PC Bloods. Although this is not yet a reality, but the toll -free case on the framework mini -PC is closed, not to mention if IFIXIT’s mass single tool tool down, definitely appeals to my little soul… even if the price tag is certainly out of the budget of the broken bab.
When I Do My chaos home office, question ‘I welcome a new kit’ and where do I keep it when I work with it? ‘My mind is never far away. The end of the line hardware goes straight to the Land Phil is my climate of anxiety, and that’s not the reason I Enjoy Waking up at night
Investigations by the United Nations Institute for Training and Research revealed that Only a record 62 million tonnes e -west developed in 202282 % higher than what happened in 2010 2010. Therefore, the standard approach for modular connecting slots, or without a strong, easily accessible recycling system, is also at risk of contributing to the e -waest with modular hardware upgrade.
I can’t easily keep several millions of tons of e -west aside, but to get a significant conclusion, I will do. Despite the maximum custom and easy upgraded promise, I am still not convinced that there is a place for modular design in my life. In addition, the Dark Mount is not going to the budget for many people or with a tag of $ 250.
Too much modular tech not only costs a premium, but also effectively closes you into a very selected tech ecosystem. This is another reason why Microsoft’s adaptive Joyce Stick is beyond my criticism, because the $ 20 – price tag that is not included in any 3D printing you may have to configure at additional costs – this is definitely a very cheap outlet. However, in the end, I am still not convinced that the modular design is now and now I have a future vision for consumer tech.
