Yeah, the processor itself is a big deal, but that processor will also be available in a myriad of other products, and the Framework one will be no more repairable or upgradeable. So they're not really bringing anything special to the table in that regard.
I don't even understand why they even bother to make them available at all with Intel. They've been left in the dust for years by AMD. Who is buying these?
They did mention their price being very competitive, so that is probably how they intend to differentiate it from other products with the same processor.
There's a LTT video that popped up and it does look like they're aiming for another very budget device. They said "definitely" under $1k which doesn't really tell us much.
