When I bought my last laptop I specifically looked for alternatives to Nvidia. If you want a dGPU on a laptop, there’s almost nothing else than Nvidia.
There were like 4 laptops with AMD dGPU. All of them were priced about 2x what a comparable Nvidia laptop was priced and pretty much all of them have terrible ratings due to being made by Acer.
The only other option is Framework, and they want 3x what the Nvidia 4070 laptop cost that I ended up getting.
Linux update is more like… “uh oh, please don’t break anything, I just got my graphics drivers working last week.”
This take is based on a true story.
