  • Look for Thinkpad T480 (not the T480s, it’s the “upgrade” but they changed a lot of things like no ethernet, non-removable battery, and generally in my opinion a bunch of bad changes). It’s Intel, I don’t think there’s an AMD version, and it’s about 5 years old now so they’re all second hand, and pretty cheap. It worked well with Ubuntu when I tried that (had to change to windows for work reasons). It has a fingerprint sensor, but I found it extremely difficult to make work on Ubuntu, and so it’s good that you aren’t bothered about that.

    I genuinely think it fits all in some way all of your requirements, it’s just whether you’ve got availability where you are.
