The number only indicate the screen size. The other two laptop models are the Framework 13 and 16. The only thing that made it confusing for you was your assumptions, since it all seems pretty straightforward to me.
They wouldn’t because they don’t have the manufacturing capacity to dilute their product line like that. The whole concept of the Frameworks laptop is to keep as many parts as possible between generation so its always upgradeable between generation. We’ll see how well they can stay on this course.
Yes i realised that after researching their product line. And there are currently 5 different 13’s, and seemingly no easy way to differentiate revisions without listing the complete specs.
I just wish companies would make it easier to tell which of their products is newer/older.
Eg: 13" 2021, 16" 2022, etc…
Revisions don’t really make sense for Framework in the same way as most other tech companies though, simply because of how upgradable and swappable the laptops are. My 13 probably has parts from two or three different “versions” at this point, and works like Lucky Charms.
I guess it doesn’t really work in their case because they only update certain parts each time, while all other parts stay the same revision, so you do need to refer to the specs to know which model you’re referring to.

This naming scheme breaks down the moment they release another line of 12", 13", or 16" laptops. It’s a bad naming scheme.
