The benefits of Linux is that older hardware may have strong driver support.
I have a Razer Blade. It used to have issues waking from suspend. When I've tried to use integrated graphics instead of Nvidia to try to squeeze more battery life, that issue returned and the old fix doesn't seem to work.I also have had problems where it was getting frozen on the lock screen.
I'd like it if my next laptop had better Linux support. Good drivers, good battery life.
