Framework vs Dell XPS: which laptop would you choose for the next five years?

For a laptop used for coding, office work, video calls, and travel, would you choose Framework or Dell XPS? Framework publishes repair and upgrade guides, including mainboard replacement. Dell's current XPS range spans 13-, 14-, and 16-inch models, so the exact configuration matters when comparing portability, displays, and performance. Does Framework's approach to replacing and upgrading parts pay off over several years, once parts prices and your own time are included? Or would you choose an XPS based on its screen, keyboard, trackpad, battery life, and support options? Please name the model, processor, display, operating system, and approximate price you're comparing. Especially interested in everyday battery life, fan noise during calls, Linux compatibility, and actual repair experiences. If you've owned either, what would make you buy it again—or switch?
