I’m in the market for a new Linux laptop. My current machine is a 2018 i7 with 64GB of RAM, a 4K screen, 1TB of storage, 2x USB-C and 1x USB-A.
I’m looking for something that can match my current specs but brings great battery life, modern Wi-Fi, and a fingerprint reader. I don’t have to have 4K, and may actually prefer lower resolution for the battery savings.
I’d love to hear some recommendations for a machine built within the past 12 months. Thanks in advance for your feedback!
Same here. There’s really no reason why I should have to throw away the whole machine if the keyboard goes marginal after a few years or I decide I want a faster CPU.

I’m trying to aim for the Framework Laptop 16. Coming out soon. Should be very modular.
Talking about the devil… 🎂 I just received an email for pre ordering.
Owno… the price tag… :\
Nevermind almost as expensive as Lenovo.
But once you’re in the environment, upgrades will be much cheaper than getting a new machine.
True that!.. I actually pre-ordered the Framework 16 now.

Pre-order is placed!
Same!
