Something ive been wanting for a while is a highly portable linux device like a phone or small tablet but obviously running fully flegde linux.

I need a device that is x86, 5g/4g networking water resistant if possible, sliding kB would be great but thats a bye gone era.

I don’t want to use android based systems as when they have linux support it is via a spersific distribution made for that device. Virtualization is also not for me.

    Probably a Surface (if there’s one with a 5G modem) at the moment. I got a Lenovo Ideapad Duo Chromebook a few years ago but it’s become unusable now and hasn’t been jailbroken to my knowledge. There was a newer version but it wasn’t made available in the UK. Devices like the Juno look promising but are way too expensive for me (accepting they’re around the same price as an iPad and that Android devices are subsidised).
