my Strategy to have #linux capabilities on a tablet now is to use Linux under #android. To get rid of my ipad (since the new ipados is horrible and the email app was always horrible) I got myself a 12inch Android pocopad. And going to experiment with #termux
Will post under hashtag #LinuxTablet

Brax open_slate is a privacy-focused tablet with Ubuntu and de-Googled Android support (crowdfunding)
The open_slate is an upcoming tablet with a 12 inch, 2.4K IPS LCD display, a MediaTek Genio 720 processor and support for up to 16GB of RAM and 256GB of onboard storage.
But what makes it unlike most tablets on the market is that it’s designed to run open source software, has hardware kill switches to help protect your privacy, and some replaceable components including a removable battery and […]

Showed my daughter a peachiequeen frame.work 12 video. She seems excited about it "daddy, when can I get it?"

I'm thinking of this in lieu of a tablet. It can fold and I can get their stylus. Current owners of this, how is the touch screen and stylus.
Of course put linux on it too.
Star Labs StarLite Linux Tablet Review - Lugcast Clips Ep 248
Finally accomplished my lifelong dream of finding a Surface Pro 3 and sticking Linux on it.
—Sent from Fedora 42 on my Surface Pro 3.
@rye maybe the Starlite.
https://au.starlabs.systems/pages/starlite?shpxid=8cf3d2a5-9f00-4cff-8b5c-2ffd301064c5
This article reviewed a range of Linux tablets and as above the Starlite seemed the highest spec.
Went and got myself a new tablet in the form of a Latitude 7275. The screen is the first thing that stood out, it's bright and the viewing angle is fabulous. I might write a longer review later, once I've become more antiquated with it. Otherwise I'm quiet pleased with it on this note.
@zeitverschreib Das gleiche Problem hatte ich auch - am liebsten wäre mir ja ein #LinuxTablet gewesen. Aber als "Touch-only" Gerät fehlt da noch etwas der Feinschliff in der Soft-/Hardware...
Ich habe mit dem #UniversalAndroidDebloater Tool versucht, so viel wie möglich runter zu schmeißen (https://github.com/0x192/universal-android-debloater). Ist meilenweit von "echtem" #DeGoogle entfernt, aber ein für mich derzeit akzeptabler Kompromiss.
Unfortunately, I don't have any experience with it, but I would be very interested in any experiences with the #Fydetab Duo too.
@fasnix Ich wollte auch unbedingt ein Linux Tablet. Spielverderber war bei meinen Versuchen mit einem alten Surface Gerät allerdings das schlechte OnScreen-Keyboard und das Handling bei Copy&Paste. Sehr schade, der Rest lief nämlich wirklich sehr gut.

Stylus with palm rejection works out of the box (thanks to built-in Wacom support). Only thing that doesn't work is the SIM reader, which always says "no SIM". I've tried it all, but this Intel LTE modem won't work 😬 #linux #linuxtablet
Hey! Just a quick hello from Arthur (our fluffy team member), he’s here to wish you a Happy Bank Holiday!
He’s been doing absolutely nothing all day and insists that you should do the same :)
Hope you get some time to chill, get outside or just treat yourself to something nice.

(Instead of a "negative" name, now it has a name that's hard to spell correctly, judging from how many people spell Python incorrectly lol)

@pandora @fedibikes_de #Tablet ist leider wirklich schwierig, da suche ich auch gerade noch eine sinnvolle Möglichkeit. Ich überlege immer mal wieder ein gebrauchtes #SurfaceGo von M$ zu holen und #Linux aufzuspielen. Ich bin aber unsicher, ob es bei der Nutzbarkeit wirklich mit #Android mithalten kann (Benutzbarkeit ohne Tastatur+Maus, Akkulaufzeiten, StandBy-Zeit, zuverlässiges Einblenden der Bildschirmtastatur,...). #LinuxMobile #linuxtablet
Pine64’s RISC-V tablet now ships with a Debian-based Linux distro and improved hardware
The PineTab-V is a 10.1 inch tablet with a 1280 x 800 pixel IPS LCD display, 8GB of LPDDR4 memory, 128GB of eMMC storage, and a detachable keyboard with backlit keys.
What really makes it different from most tablets though is that it’s powered by a RISC-V processor rather than an ARM or x86 chip. Pine64 began selling the tablet to developers and early adopters in 2023, and now the company […]

I’ve been using a Lenovo Yoga for my 2-in-1 Linux computer duties. But now I have another, possibly better option. Don’t get me wrong—my Lenovo has been working great!! But ultra-repairability, and ultra-upgradability has some nice advantages! I’ll be watching this one closely! 🙂

I'm currently drafting up a review for an ARM based Linux tablet. I'm wondering what people care about the most when buying a tablet? Let me know.
Juno Tab 3 is an overpriced Linux tablet with an Intel N100 processor and 12GB RAM
The Juno Tab 3 is a tablet with a 12.1 inch, 2160 x 1440 pixel, 330 nit IPS LCD display, 12GB of LPDDR5-4800 memory, and an M.2 2242 SATA III SSD with at least 512GB of storage. It’s powered by a 6-watt Intel N100 quad-core processor based on Intel Alder Lake-N architecture.
What sets it apart from most tablets with those sorts of specs that this isn’t a Windows, Android , or ChromeOS […]
