Hello, I have already sent this over to Framework support but wondered if anyone else have these potential issues with their top cover, or If I am just being picky.
Trackpad
I don’t believe my track pad shouldn’t have this much travel? Feels a bit mushy
(I admit I have not used a non-Apple trackpad in year but can make it hard to use on the go)

Top cover screws
Some of the screws in the cover appear to be over tightened so freely spin, or are missing.

Backlight
The keyboard backlight appears to be pretty dim (very minor inconvenience)

Tight expansion cards
How quickly do the expansion cards loosen up?

Apart from that loving the laptop : )
Trackpad: Not sure if it’s meant to look like that, but people on the forums have “modded” their trackpad by disassembling it partially and e.g. inserting small pieces of paper into the mechanism to make it have less travel. I can’t give direct instructions, but this guide goes in the right direction: https://guides.frame.work/Guide/Touchpad+Rubbing+Fix+Guide/103
Screws: I wouldn’t needlessly mess with the screws, they’re easy to damage. However if you suspect that some are missing or faulty, I’d await the response of support.
Backlight: You seem to have a blank black keyboard, so there aren’t really letters to light up. You only get the (mostly unwanted) light that shines behind the keycaps.
Tight expansion cards: Normal, they’ll looses up if you switch ports often. I’d use both thumbs to push the card out and use another finger or the palm at the same time to push the button.
