Why there is no INTEL-based 5G Laptop that run Linux Operating System UBUNTU Touch ?

 

Could you please recommend me 1 unit of an INTEL-based Linux 5G Cellular Laptop that is selling in the market today ? As of today December 2024 , most of the 5G Laptops that are selling in the market today are ARM-based and the 5G Laptops are running Windows 10 Operating System or Windows 11 Operating System , not Linux Operating System . Why the Laptop hardware Companies are not making INTEL-based 5G Laptops that run Linux OS ? In my opinion , if a Laptop hardware Company decided to make an INTEL-based Linux 5G Laptop , they can always select Linux OS UBUNTU TOUCH or they can always put Linux OS UBUNTU TOUCH inside their 5G Laptop , because in my opinion , besides Windows 10 Operating System , besides Windows 11 Operating System , Linux UBUNTU TOUCH OS have one of the best Linux ecosystems on the planet . The reason i say this is because Linux UBUNTU Touch can run on a Tablet , can run on a Smartphone , can run on a SmartTV , can run on an IBM Mainframe , can even run on a Supercomputer ! I am looking forward in one sunny day we might have an INTEL-based 5G Laptop that can run Linux UBUNTU Touch and I hope I live long enough to see that ! Could you please give some thoughts on this ? Thanks !

I understand your frustration! As of now, there aren't many Intel-based 5G laptops available, and most of the 5G laptops on the market are ARM-based and run Windows 10 or Windows 11.

There could be several reasons why laptop hardware companies haven't focused on creating Intel-based 5G laptops running Linux OS like Ubuntu Touch:

1. Market Demand: The majority of consumers still prefer Windows-based laptops, which drives manufacturers to focus on those operating systems.

2. Development Effort: Creating a Linux-based system, especially one as specialized as Ubuntu Touch, requires significant development and optimization efforts.

3. Compatibility: Ensuring full hardware compatibility and performance with Linux can be challenging, especially with newer technologies like 5G.

However, your vision of an Intel-based 5G laptop running Ubuntu Touch is exciting! It would indeed offer a versatile and powerful device, given Ubuntu Touch's adaptability across various devices.

Would you like me to keep an eye out for any announcements or developments in this area?
