nah i wont be plugging anything in. Just laptopping. But im not going to grab the m1 laptop and ill grab the 2019 intel one instead.

Thank you, this is a great resource.

is the HDR display working? I think I might not get it since it sounds like a lot of trouble. There are 2019 intel macbooks that might make a better linux laptop

I dont even know what Thunderbolt is so I probably wont miss it, however no gpu hardware acceleration must hurt quite a bit. Do you notice it to be sluggish?

I’ve been buying old flagship phones and they seem to last a while. I got the S9 for under $300 NZD and its still going even with no security updates. I then got the S10 for some family and thats still going good.

If you want a cheap phone 2nd hand refurbished versions of good phones are in my opinion the best way to go.
