My wife is looking for a portable device primarily for modeling in Blender and optionally for drawing in Krita. So we looking for something with a GNU/Linux support from manufacturer.
We considered https://www.tuxedocomputers.com/en/TUXEDO-InfinityFlex-14-Gen1, it looks nice, but maybe you have other suggestions? Do you have experience with convertibles, how convenient is to draw on them?
We also considered https://earth.starlabs.systems/pages/starlite for drawing and a separate device for Blender, but having two devices might not be convenient…
Consider giving devices offered by NovaCustom a look.
When it comes to Linux-first laptop vendors, it’s definitely my favorite out of the bunch.
On purchasing one of their devices, they offer:
I’m simply unaware of any other (Linux-first) firm that can compete regarding the above.
And I haven’t even mentioned how vast their customization options are, or how well-praised their support is.
I’m actually stunned why it’s not mentioned more often in these conversations.
Btw, I’d actually recommend you to consider the whereabouts of the respective support centers before you buy a device. You never hope to be in that situation, but it makes a real difference when it matters. So, in case you’re unaware, AFAIK:
First time hear about it, but sounds very cool!
Totally agree, I take this into consideration. Tuxedo is very attractive to me because we planning to visit Germany personally. But I will take a look at NovaCustom as well since it’s in EU.
From Star Labs their StarLite tablet looks very attractive. Right now I considering buying a tablet for drawing and a laptop for 3D modeling instead of 2-in-1.
