Lenovo ThinkPad T14s Gen 6 (Snapdragon X Elite)
Snapdragon X Elite
Of every Snapdragon X laptop, this is the one Canonical and Lenovo work hardest on, with Ubuntu certification, upstream EC work and roughly 18 to 21 hours of real Windows battery in a ThinkPad chassis, but the FHD+ panel is plain and the X Elite SKU is expensive next to the AMD T14s.
