This is the best summary I could come up with:

I’ve been testing out the Framework Laptop 13 the past month and after a BIOS update has been working out wonderfully on Linux.

Another pleasant change since looking at the original Framework laptop in 2021 has been the company providing even better Linux support.

The only notable Linux support caveat for the current hardware is possible fingerprint reader issues if not running on the latest firmware.

The embedded controller is based on the Google Chromebook EC and making use of Zephyr.

One step further it would be great if the Framework 13 AMD laptop made use of Coreboot, but alas that’s not the case.

Hopefully though that will become more of a reality as AMD OpenSIL hits production in ~2026 and that we continue seeing more open-source firmware efforts invested by Framework.
