Tuxedo Aura 15 Gen3 (AMD Ryzen 7 7730U)

The cheap EU-direct Linux pick: Zen 3 plus Vega is fully mainline, the 91 Wh battery does about 9 hours, and it ships from Germany priced in euro. The 250-nit FHD panel is the corner cut. For a no-drama Linux daily under 900 euro, buy it.

ubuntu-lts: Ryzen 7 7730U is rebadged Zen 3 (Barcelo refresh) with Vega graphics, one of the most settled AMD Linux platforms there is, so kernel 6.2 era is plenty and nothing here is bleeding edge. Ships TUXEDO OS or Ubuntu LTS with TUXEDO Control Center for fan curves and battery charge limits. No fingerprint reader. Slotted SO-DIMM DDR4 to 64 GB and a 91 Wh battery. The screen is a plain 250-nit FHD panel, the one corner cut at this price. Tuxedo: Aura 15 product and Linux support →

fedora: Zen 3 plus Vega is fully mainline; Fedora installs clean. You lose TUXEDO Control Center, so fan and charge-limit control go manual via ryzenadj and sysfs.
