Hi,

I might need to give away my Surface Pro 7 soon, and I’m considering what laptop to buy next. For a MS laptop, the surface behaved rather well on linux. Well, if it wasn’t for the cameras, which never worked. I’m now wondering which laptop has good hardware support, that would be kinda like a surface, a 2-in-1 laptop. As in, detachable keyboard, that can operate in tablet mode and then once you attach the keyboard you have a full laptop. But with full Linux/cameras/everything support?

Does such thing exist? Thanks!

    Framework recently announced a 2 in 1 laptop the Framework 12. That might be something for you.

      I’d say this over the V3 except all this tarrif nonsense has really messed with everything. Ordering now means you won’t even get one til next year, and that’s just on paper. Who knows when it will really be able to be shipped.

      I might need it earlier than announced stage. However it’s really interesting to hear they’re also working on this format. I’ll wait to see further news about this, depending on how soon I need my surface replaced.

      Edit: aw, the keyboard isn’t detachable on this one :(
