    Read the article my dude

    Another line points out that Cooler Master, which designed the thermal solution inside the Framework Laptop 16 and is now a direct investor, might help Framework build new products, too. “

    And why would Cooler Master work on a tablet and not a phone, phones need cooling to lol?

    They wouldn’t work on either because that’s not the type of products they make.

    Phones don’t have much on the way of cooling

              No, it’s not a phone. That’s the “Cooler Master Cryo Phone Cooler”. It’s a phone cooler that attaches to the back of your phone to provide additional cooling while gaming and what not. So when you said

              They wouldn’t work on either(phone or tablet) because that’s not the type of products they make.

              Not really true, Cooler Master had already made a cooler for phones. It’s not much of a stretch to say they might release another product in the phone category.

                No, it is very true. Building a glorified clip-on fan is not the same thing as making a phone.

                    I mean I feel like that’s pretty clearly what you were insinuating, but if not then I’m not sure what YOUR point is.

                    The point is not only that phones don’t have cooling systems (outside of niche devices like RedMagic and ROG) but that CM has no experience with that sort of thing, so its unlikely to be a phone because they would not need CM’s investment for that.

          You can tell me how the quote from the article connects to what I said and what led you to believe I didn’t already read it.
