The Dev One is basically an Elitebook with a Linux sticker on it. If you don't care about the sticker you widen your available choice of screen, CPU, memory and storage a fair bit.
I switched to an HP 845 G9 (quite similar to the Dev One but with AMD inside) as my daily driver running Arch a couple of months ago. It's a very decent machine with enough processing power to make me not regret switching from a desktop PC. My only complaints are:
- GPU crashes that happen every few days. It's a newish platform so I'm hopeful it will be resolved by the work done in more recent kernels.
- Power consumption on battery is a bit high for my taste, hovering around 6W.
- derbOac 4y agoThe Dev One has an AMD chip, FWIW.
- nicolaslem 4y agoYou are right, sorry I meant to say a 6000 series chip as opposed to the 5000 series in the Dev One.
- derbOac 4y agoYeah that's a difference worth noting.
