I’m going with this Dell and returning my Lenovo Slim 7 Pro. In my previous thread saying I switched to Windows I read that Dells offer great compatibility. I ordered this Dell XPS 13 and plan on going with Pop OS. Thoughts on this? Good choice?
Edit: Apparently it’s certified with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I assume I should go with This particular Ubuntu version then?
From what I heard, the Dell XPS 13 is one option to run a Linux distro, but it isn’t the only option. Should it not work for you, another alternative you could consider is the Acer Swift 3. That’s the laptop I currently own, and I run Arch Linux on it. I have not yet encountered any issues with it. Prior to running Arch, I have tried Linux Mint and Pop OS on it. I wouldn’t recommend Linux Mint on a laptop, not because it’s a bad distro (Linux Mint is quite good as a beginner distro), but because the Cinnamon DE isn’t great for laptops. The GNOME and Cosmic DE are more suited for laptop workflows.
