Why in 2018, does it seem impossible to buy a purpose-built Linux (distro) tablet from any major computer vendor. A device with features typical to those iOS and Android devices.
Yeah the best match I found for this was the lenovo t420, costs under $200 on the refurb market but has a core i5, if you get a refurb they tend to have decent battery life. Kind of heavy but since the hardware has been out for ~10 years the drivers are really stable and its an easy install for most distros.
I honestly would be less ambitious and settle with more it-just-works Linux laptops that devs can trust and maybe mainstream users can learn too.<p>Currently the only one that fits that bill is Dell XPS13 and that comes with just one flavor (Ubuntu). Most laptops will have random driver issues or another.
PostmarketOS is just Alpine Linux for phones. It might be worth checking out the list of devices: <a href="https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices" rel="nofollow">https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices</a>
Because it’s hard to market. I mean, you basically want an Apple device with Linux that works like OS X/iOS.<p>I wanted one too, but eventually I gave up and settled in the apple ecosystem.
