I’m going with this Dell and returning my Lenovo Slim 7 Pro. In my previous thread saying I switched to Windows I read that Dells offer great compatibility. I ordered this Dell XPS 13 and plan on going with Pop OS. Thoughts on this? Good choice?

Edit: Apparently it’s certified with Ubuntu 20.04 LTS. I assume I should go with This particular Ubuntu version then?

    I can finance through Best Buy via their credit card which is why I’m going with the Dell.

      Dell XPS 13 with the “developer” label is also pretty nice so it’s all good, but check that it has the “developer” label, or it will be not designed to be compatible, if I’m not wrong, the main difference is the Wi-Fi adapter. Also, out of this topic, careful with the finance and credit card, it’s always a scam unless you really need it to work I wouldn’t spend money that I don’t have.

      EDIT: About the compatibility, on this Reddit post, people are saying there is not really any difference https://www.reddit.com/r/Dell/comments/fjb9na/difference_between_the_standard_and_developer/, and I think the Wi-Fi adapter was only on the old versions (years ago when I bought mine). Haha… 😛
