Should I buy current fw16 or wait?
I was waiting to buy it when a refresh with new CPU is announced. But today my current 5 year old ideapad broke down (seems like soldered ram /motherboard issue, awaiting confirmation), assuming that it might cost me £200-£300 to get it repaired.
So I am thinking whether to get that replaced or use the funds towards framework 16, but then it still uses 2 year old cpu and have seen many users complaint of some minor issues.. Given the 13 got a refresh of AI 300 series 16 might get it too? So do I repair and wait or just buy the current 7000 series.. Is it worth waiting, is the new CPU that great? Are the user qc complaints too bad that it's worth waiting for next refresh?
