I really want my primary mobile computer to be a tablet mainly because I genuinely like the form factor. My current Linux laptop is dying and I thought I’d just buy the newest Lenovo Thinkpad Surface clone but Lenovo seems to have discontinued it because I couldn’t find a 2025 version anywhere, same with HP and Dell’s Surface clones. And most of the Windows tablets I could find online have dinky Intel N processors instead of Core.

Can anyone recommend a high end tablet that runs Linux well? Failing that, how bad is the Surface really with Linux as the only OS?

    Yes I got a generic surface pen and it worked out of the box without any tweaking.

        Ahh, I got mine used when a window 11 update “bricked” a lots of them. Rather than do am RMA this guy just got a new one and gave me the old ones saying if I could fix it then I could keep it.

        Unbricking was not easy so I can understand why he just replaced it.
