Updates on July 22nd, 2026

We have one major and unfortunate pricing update today along with a mix of smaller changes and a few improvements too.

Framework Laptop 13 Pro updates

We’ve consistently held and communicated a philosophy of absorbing price increases wherever we can, making pricing predictable and ensuring that when you place a pre-order, you’ll be able to get the product you ordered at the price you ordered it at. We’ve been able to do that to date with Framework Laptop 13 Pro, and have absorbed increases in a number of areas. However, we recently received a cost update from our LPCAMM2 supplier that goes far beyond anything we had predicted and anything we’re able to absorb without placing our ability to operate at real financial risk. Rather than the low-to-mid double digit percentage increase we had forecast from Q2 to Q3 on LPCAMM2 costs, we received prices that are more than double that of the prior inventory we had brought in. We have enough LPCAMM2 memory modules on hand to cover all existing pre-orders, but unfortunately not in the mix of 64GB, 32GB, and 16GB that matches those pre-orders.

After evaluating a number of possible paths forward, we’re proceeding on the one that we believe minimizes the impact of this challenge. We have enough 64GB modules in inventory to cover pre-order batches through Batch 4 of laptops and Batch 7 of Mainboards. For orders beyond that configured with 64GB, we’ve updated the order configuration to use a 32GB module at the original 32GB module price. After that, we allocated the remaining 32GB modules to DIY Edition and Mainboard pre-orders configured with 32GB through Batch 4 of laptops and Batch 7 of Mainboards. For DIY Edition and Mainboard orders beyond that configured with 32GB, we’ve updated the order configuration to use a 16GB module at the original 16GB price. Note that because we don’t currently have a Core X7 Ultra pre-built configuration with 16GB of memory, we have not adjusted pre-built orders that originally contained 32GB. That is a configuration we plan to introduce later.

Alongside these changes to existing pre-order configurations, we’ve updated the pricing on our website for newly placed pre-orders. Our new LPCAMM2 pricing is below the substantially higher cost we’re now sourcing it at to try to mitigate some of the impact to new customers. While we have kept our original 16GB LPCAMM2 pricing for now, we anticipate we will consume the remaining inventory of modules we brought in at lower cost soon, and will then need to increase pricing for new orders. The system and Mainboard pricing for new orders also reflects an upcoming increase in Core Ultra Series 3 processor pricing that impacts X7 and X9 configurations, an increase in Windows license costs, and increases in memory, storage, and other silicon costs for some of our Ryzen AI 300 Series configurations.

Other memory and storage updates

We have a few positive updates this month where we are bringing prices down alongside a few areas where costs have gone up. These are all indications that memory and storage prices continue to gradually trend upwards, but with a bounciness on specific parts and brands.

On DDR5, our Supply Chain team was able to bring down costs on 48GB capacity modules, and we reduced pricing as a result. For 16GB capacity though, costs have gone up, and we’ve increased the prices there.

The same dynamic is playing out on storage modules. We’ve been able to reduce pricing of SN850X 8TB and SN7100 1TB, while needing to increase pricing on SN850X 1TB and SN7100 4TB.

For DDR5 and storage modules, in instances where we are increasing pricing, we will continue to honor the lower pricing from order time on existing pre-orders. In instances where we’ve reduced pricing, we will automatically reduce the price on pre-orders that have not yet been fulfilled. Note that on existing pre-orders, modifying the configuration of memory or storage will result in taking the new pricing for those items.

As always, we are doing everything possible to continue to get you memory and storage at the best prices we’re able to in this silicon environment. We’ll continue to keep you updated throughout.

We finally have some good news for you, around the pricing on PCIe Gen 5 SSDs for Framework Laptop 13 Pro. We were able to qualify and source a new SSD from our partner ADATA, the XPG MARS 970, that offers better performance, efficiency, and long term reliability, and comes in at substantially lower cost than the SSD option we had previously qualified. Since we haven’t started...
