HP has teamed up with System76 to create a developer-focused laptop, called the Dev One, which ships with Pop!_OS Linux and starts at $1099.00. The original announcement came out in May 2022 and, at the time, the laptop was unavailable for pre-order. Fast forward to now and users can now order one of these shiny new pieces of Linux-powered hardware.
The Dev One keeps the prices slightly lower by going with an AMD CPU and shrugs off a discrete graphics card. The base model ships with an 8 Core, 16-thread Ryzen 7 Pro 5850U with a 1.9-4.4 GHz clock speed, an integrated Radeon graphics chipset, and 8GB of DDR4-3200 RAM (upgradable to 64GB). The chassis is .75" thick and has a 1TB PCIe 3x4 NVMe M.2 SSD and the display is 14" at 1920x1080 and 1,000 nits max brightness. However, due to the display glass, the brightness is actually 800 nits.
The specs claim up to 12-hours of battery life.
Pre-order your HP Dev One now[1]. One thing to note is it seems there is no way to currently upgrade the base spec model on the pre-order site. However, you can add a System76 Launch Keyboard for an added $285.
