Why/User Benefit/User Problem

Easily upgradable parts or replaceable parts upon defect out of warranty ( battery , ram , harddrive/SSD , screens, keyboards, motherboards )

Description of the feature

All the main components should be self serviceable and parts available to order upon request.

AlNotSteve commented 4 years ago

Self serviceable parts invariably come at the cost of bulk. Perhaps a middle ground of being able to replace SSD would be a better option.

codeallstar commented 4 years ago

I would trade a little bulk for replaceable RAM and SSD.

TeamLinux01 commented 4 years ago

On bigger models, I wouldn't mind seeing a return of hot swap-able batteries.
