I have six different laptops within an arms length of me made in the last 7 years, almost all different brands (Acer, Asus, Dell, Lenovo, HP) and every single one of them has replaceable storage, memory, and wifi. None of them requires anything more than a screwdriver to swap all of those components.
Perhaps the highest end, lightest, thinnest laptops have these components soldered on, but it is certainly not the case for most middle-of-the-road laptops.
You left out IO but oh well - ifixit has had 5 laptops that have recieved a 10/10 for repairability since 2010 and only 2 were released this decade (one was Framework).
I don't think you can upgrade the CPU for a single laptop on this list, let alone many of the other components and certainly not for hardware that came out after the original laptop release. Framework has that upgradability, that repairability etc.
I've never actually had occasion to replace the IO bits on my laptops, with the exception of a screen on an Acer that I replaced in about 2012. Also required nothing but a screwdriver.
Agree that you can't upgrade the CPU or other components on them. Agree that Framework allows this and is excellent. My only intention was to refute this patently false claim:
> Nearly all laptops manufactured after 2010 have storage, memory, WiFi and IO soldered to the motherboard.
If you could then they likely would have been quite a bit more expensive and thicker... That's the problem with all this stuff the form factors and other trade offs regarding cost have relentlessly pushed us in this direction.
