I purchased a Thinkpad X13 Gen 2 laptop with AMD Ryzen 5 Pro 5650U CPU and 16 GB RAM. The part number is 20XH002MUS. Here is a short review.
Good
- 16:10 screen
- 6 core CPU provides decent power
- user replaceable SSD
- user replaceable WiFi card
- Fingerprint sensor has Linux driver
- Preloaded with Windows 10 Pro (not home). Although I would immediately install Linux.
Bad
- The screen is dim (300 nit brightness)
- Key travel is even shorter than X1 carbon 8th gen.
- The two USB-C ports do not support Thunderbolt.
- RT8852AE WiFi card has no mainline Linux support. Fortunately it is not soldered. So I replaced it with a AX210.
- The heat sink exhaust is on the right side, which is inconvenient for right handed people.
