Oh, mine only seems to physically disconnect the camera and not slide anything in front of the lens. Do you have the 16?

That lens cover also seems unnecessary to me. A physical disconnect for the camera and microphone is a nice touch of Framework’s laptops…

No, I have the 13. Although I’m not in front of it right now, so I could be misremembering.
