Looking at the insides, I'm going to guess about 2 watt hours. Or they could have made it unmeasurably thinner.

Framework has 55 watt hours. The obsolete macbooks have 41. Both intel and M1 macbook pros have 58. Both intel and M1 macbook airs have 50.
Sounds like that lack of user-replacability isn't necessary.

Yeah I'm still waiting on the improved battery life that losing 3.5mm was supposed to give me.
Not buying it. I'll take extra 2mm for 3.5mm and usb a.
