I can attest to this. I've been hunting like a mad man for a good Ryzen laptop ever since Zen 3 first came out.
It was eventually OK for Windows users but for Linux users you had to settle for a cheap wifi chipset in any AMD laptop. I finally managed to at least find a mediatek chipset instead of qualcomm, but I really would like an intel wifi chipset with a Ryzen CPU.
And don't even get me started on high resolution, or touchscreen monitors.

- theodric 3y agoI recently picked up a ThinkPad E14 gen 2 with a Ryzen 7 4700U for €200. The gen 3 version has Zen 3 CPUs. The Wi-Fi card is M.2 A+E compatible, and although it shipped with Intel Wi-Fi 6, I upgraded it to a 6E card for €20. It is a cheap but nice-cheap laptop that seems like it matches what you're looking for.
