I would say Linux support even for modern x86 laptops is not great. Take for example Zenbook S series, both AMD and Intel. While most of the things are kind of working, they are not that stable. I would say Linux support peaked somewhere on 12th generation Intel laptops.

- brucehoult 2y agoI don't have any problems with Ubuntu 24.04 on my i9-13900HX Lenovo Legion Pro 5i. It's never crashed, I never reboot it, sleep works fine. It spends almost all its time sitting with the lid closed, sshing in from my Mac, using 13W-15W depending on whether it's in eco/smart/performance mode, then boosting to 160W or so if I ask it to do something serious. When I do take it mobile, it runs for about 5 hours doing light stuff in eco mode, vs 6 hours when it has Windows on it. The difference isn't really a problem as it disappears if you give it some real work to do. That's not Arm Mac battery life, but it's 2 or 3 hours more than I ever actually need. I've got it set up to keep running closed on AC, sleep if the AC disappears. Works great, and it's going instantly from sleep with a keypress if I open it. Really, no complaints at all.
