Hi guys this is another question about asking amd laptops advices :)

I have looking for a Linux laptop since July, but didnt found anything good so i just wondering if some one know a laptop that acomplish any of the following characteristics (In order of importance)

Things i want to clarify , im not want it for gaming just heavy work like programing and VM's . I dont have any hurry, if u think that is better to wait X months you could say too ! . Budget <1200

CPU : Ryzen 5 o 7 , if is the new generation better :)

GPU: N/A

RAM: I dont care the starting RAM since i can change it my self in the future , Max recomended 16 to 32

Battery : I dont care about it but i prefer a removable battery bcs im pluged 99% of the time

OS : Well if Windows is nots installed better so i dont pay for something i will not use.

DIsplay : i rlly dont care

Thanks for your time, i apreciate it and sorry for my english

If you don't care for graphics, then intel will be hands down the better choice because it will actually give you better performance.

AMD R5 3500U vs Intel i5-8265U

Any 8th gen i5 or i7 laptop with at least 8 GB of RAM and 256 GB SSD should work.

Just make sure it supports RAM and storage upgradability,

Dell Inspiron 13 from 5000 series could be a great option.

It is one of the few portable laptops that support up to 32 GB RAM.

What you think about this one i found => ASUS TUF GAMING FX505 - Ryzen 5 3550H / NEW GTX 1050 3Gb Max-Q / RAM: 16Gb (2x8Gb) DDR4 2666Mhz CL16 / 256GB SSD / 15.6 Price: 550 €. What you think about all the vulnerabilities of Intel processors ?
I dont see to much Dells Inspirion 13 in Europe market places , almost all of them are discontinued or just to old in hardare.

Thanks for your time man
