I wouldn't suggest going for a recent X1 as there are some driver issues on Linux.

My current one is a Thinkpad 14s AMD. As somebody who had most smaller Thinkpads and Dells in the last 15 years, this is my favourite machine so far: great battery, a decent GPU, still a Thinkpad, perfect Linux support.

Which generation is that T14s? I am in the market for a new one.

  • I have T14s Gen 3 AMD for almost 2 years now, Linux support is great and it's the best laptop I've ever owned. It wasn't the latest model at the time of purchase, I got it off Ebay sale.

  • I bought whatever was recent in may 2025: Thinkpad 14s AMD 64GB. My collegue bought one a month ago so it seems to be the latest one still.
