How compatible is the HONOR MagicBook X 15 laptop with Linux systems?
Greetings! I decide to buy a new laptop and the choice so far falls on this model: HONOR MagicBook X 15. I consider a laptop exclusively for Linux OS. And I want to talk to people who have had experience with this laptop. How compatible is it? refers to the situation with the drivers. I would be very grateful if someone could share their experience.
Thank you for attention!

There is information about the 14th: https://www.linux.org.ru/forum/linux-hardware/15490752
Artifacts due to a crooked free driver, this is solved by installing a proprietary driver.
Sometimes it won't wake up after opening the lid - this is normal in Linux, get in the habit of saving all data before closing the lid.
Forget about the fingerprint scanner right away.
The touchpad should work and even support some gestures.
There may be problems with WiFi and BlueTooth, google support for the module.
I have the same laptop. Ubuntu 20.04 works fine for six months: no artifacts, no sleep problems, all gestures on the touchpad work, bluetooth headphones and a mouse work simultaneously without problems, Wi-Fi gives a stable 250Mbps on SpeedTest, the battery lasts 4 hours with intensive use. Among the shortcomings: the fingerprint does not work and I had to turn off the screen rotation, because. the laptop could arbitrarily rotate during transfer and not return to its original position (it was funny when the pair came up to ask the teacher a question, and my whole under went into book format; the teacher trolled for this)
