An Apple laptop doesn't have replaceable RAM or storage because they want to upcharge on those items.

The average laptop is okay, but ports are soldered. Framework ports are all USB C internally so you actualy customize what you want and they can be plugged and unplugged

Screens are often glued on as well. But the killer feature is upgradable mobo and GPU. Nobody has supported a new generation of GPUs, if they come out with RDNA 4 upgrade for the current gen that will be a first in decades.

They already succeeded with a mobo upgrade so you could have bought an 11th gen Intel and changed to AMD or 13th gen
