Come to the store with a live flash drive and try to start it. Or google the name of the device and "Ubuntu". Please note that sometimes laptops are already sold with Linux - this is an indicator of compatibility.
Unsupported exotic comes across. I ran into Intel Atom d2550 - the integrated video card is not supported. About 6 years ago there were problems with printers, except for HP, now there seems to be no problem.

If you ask such questions, then it's better to just choose a laptop with Linux on board.
For example, notik.ru has many models with Linux pre-installed.
PS No, I don't work there, I just recently bought a laptop for my mom. On windows.
