After Lenovo released the X13s with Snapdragon ARM CPU, I was wondering how the Linux experience might be so far. Did anyone give it a try already?

    Wow, I’ve completely missed that! Hopefully the bootloader can be freed from Microsoft’s grasp

    Just out of curiosity, what would you hope toget out of the arm CPU? More battery life or better performance for certain tasks?

      Mostly looking for a good performance per watt ratio. I am interested in this one particularly because of the fanless design and low weight (Starting at 1.06kg / 2.35lbs).

      My question was more about compatibility. Preinstalled Linux is not a must, but would love to know if there are any blockers (bootloader, drivers, etc.).

        Gotcha. Different machine and price point, but I’m happy with my X1 Carbon. Battery live is 8-10 hours under light use with screen brightness turned up.
