Going to pre-order one or the other tomorrow. No gaming, watching x265 10bit movies, general browsing and work tasks through Fedora. It hurts losing the 61 but how much of a difference is the $320? (Already have a 990 Pro waiting.)

I ordered a 7640U (hopefully shipping this week), because I don’t need the extra processing power. Planning to upgrade to the 61Wh battery afterwards, though, and hopefully figure out an enclosure to turn the 55Wh into a power bank.
So it can be upgraded at a later date?
Yep! Looks to be out of stock at the moment, but framework sells it directly. https://frame.work/products/battery?v=FRANGWAT01
In Austria(Europe), it’s still in stock. But yeah, it’s one of the reasons for my decision to purchase a framework laptop, as i can get a battery replacement directly from them. And you don’t need to buy an expensive aftermarket one.
