I'm seeing very different specs on various websites, but the Lenovo website makes everything clear: some models can be configured and “IdeaPad Slim 3 Gen 10 (14" AMD)” is in that category, with wireless options being: - Wi-Fi 6 2x2 AX and Bluetooth® 5.3 - Wi-Fi 7 2x2 BE 160 MHz and Bluetooth® 5.4 (10 EUR difference…) I sleep on this and probably order from Lenovo directly (making extra sure what's under the hood). I'm almost tempted by the idea of an ARM-based laptop, but I'm a little afraid this might drag me into some different, possibly deeper rabbit hole, so I'll investigate such things on my own dime, later… :) > If it is easier to order a notebook to Germany, I can do that and > bring the machine to Brest. Thanks for the offer, much appreciated. Hopefully that won't be needed. :) Vielen Dank! -- Cyril Brulebois (kibi@debian.org) <https://debamax.com/> D-I release manager -- Release team member -- Freelance Consultant
