You are probably talking about devices that require non-free
firmware? Those are described here:

I'm not sure where you could get a list of devices that don't, but it
would include devices from years ago that are not available anymore.

If you are interested in a particular device the debian wiki has a nice
page about them with a "thumbs up" or little angry faces next to the
non-free devices.
