I’m looking for a portable, very compact linux laptop.
Screen size: 12 inch or smaller Weight: less than 1 kg (2.2 pounds) Full hd screen
I did some googling and i only found a CHUWI laptop that suffers from an overheating issue.
Your best bet is an Intel Macbook Air with 11.6" screen from a few years ago. They’re even lighter and smaller than the current macbook airs. I have one myself running Linux Mint 22. Just make sure it has 8 GB of RAM (it works with 4 GB too, but you can’t have too many tabs open). They sell for $200 refurbished.
Thanks. Which model/year do you have?
I have the mid-2011 model, but that one has only 4 GB RAM. For 8 GB RAM you need to get to 2014 model or so. As long as it’s Macbook Air with 8 GB RAM and 11.6 screen, you’re in business.
Old used surface pro 3 works great with linux ,hardware still fine and screen is awesome.i own one and run pop os on wayland.
Resolution of screen 2160x1440 12’ Intel Core i5-4300U
