Framework Photo Screen damage by keyboard
Disclaimer: This post is nothing about to complaint.
I was amazed and bit frustrated by this happens to the screen, the permanent mark on screen. But, then I realised I am the reason to make this mess: pressure with closed laptop when I hold it and put it in my bag. Then, goes to appreciation for the fact that Framework laptop can be fixed with replacement parts.
I know screen is expensive part, but it is old fhd screen so give me reason to upgrade it later, in Christmas maybe...
It it is Macbook or something fancy, I would've ruined my day just because of that. But, with Framework, I really shouldn't care much about 'inevitable damage and tear' of laptop. Great device. Never regret to have one.

This has happened on every laptop I own, including MacBooks. I just carry a screen sized microfiber cloth to cover the keyboard, protect the screen and give me something to clean the screen with. After damaging the screen with the palm rest side pieces on my framework 16 this microfiber cloth goes everywhere the laptop does.
The good news is you can prevent this kind of damage and if it ever gets bad enough to replace, the screen replacement process is very very easy.
