I hope tablets aren't offtopic :p
What would be a small tablet with the following?
- good mainline kernel support (don't really need camera or sensors)
- aarch64 architecture (if there's something with another architecture that works well for the other points let me know anyway)
- mobile data, preferrably 5G, would be fine with 4G if that is not yet a thing
- USB-C
- working suspend
I just want something to occasionally read blog posts and Piefed/Lemmy on.
It has to be small. I prefer 8" tablets. 12" tablets are really not for me. Perhaps I could grudgingly accept 9"...
I currently use a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5585, it's previously been a Windows tablet. It works well, although something crashes occasionally that makes it unable to display the batter percentage. Build quality is thin plastic and I always worry about it breaking, so I never carry it with me.
Distro support is not required, I want to port Mobian if I find a suitable device. I've previously done that for the Pixel 3a, so I know what I have to do.
I know. Not much has changed since then that I'm aware of, outside the BRAX Open Slate. GNU/Linux first tablets is currently a slowly evolving category
