Really nice laptop with Linux pre-installed. Great that there were options to configure your hardware as well as for pre-installing popular software which made the laptop usable out of the box.
Now that my trusty Apple dealer cannot repair MacBooks anymore themselves I have taken the plunge. Order arrived in the afternoon of the third day as promised here on the other side of NL. I was very positively surprised about the build quality of my new CLEVO N141CU/32GB/1TBNVMe/2TBHDD. It is not a single aliminium block, but that is about all it isn't. It feels very sturdy, metal lid, top and bottom case. A similar MacBook Pro is twice the price, has less ports and cannot be expanded at all. I may go to 64GB and a bigger NVMe in case my research demands that; I run biggish VMs. I can open this laptop up and repair it too in case I spill coffee on it. Laptop for Linux does not void the warranty unless I really break things. Best of all I am no longer hostage of Apple: changing APIs (Little Snitch), software signing (turn off apps) etc etc. Ubuntu runs all I need and more and fast. Laptop met Linux is professional and they keep their promises. I will return.
A good laptop, light and practical. Nice keyboard layout. Quick service.
Pleasant Experience.
When I order the laptop, the delivery cost were written.. However a few days later you get an additional letter from UPS, where I need to pay additonal 100.55 CHF..... never again ..next laptop I buy from lenovo online
Thank you for your review in spite of only one star. We are very sorry to hear that you call us 'cheaters'. It is also very unfortunate that you did not try to contact us. I'm very sorry but, you are wrong about the UPS invoice for the additional costs of 100.55 CHF for shipping. I will explain... You are a customer in Switzerland. Switzerland is a country which is not part of the European Union (EU). This means that you do not have to pay VAT with us in the Netherlands (which is part of the EU). You bought the product free of VAT from us. Because you are in Switzerland (again not part of the EU), you are importing from abroad. This means that everything you buy outside Switzerland has to be imported into Switzerland. When you import into Switzerland, you will have to pay the VAT and possible import duties to Swiss Customs. UPS's invoice does not include shipping costs, but the customs clearance (VAT and import duties) that UPS has advanced for you to Swiss Customs. You should know how cheap you were able to purchase this laptop in comparison to EU customers. You don't pay us the Dutch 21% VAT, but you only pay the Swiss customs the 8% VAT rate you pay in Switzerland. You are, of course, free to make a purchase from Lenovo next time. Please bear in mind that you will then receive an additional charge for Swiss VAT regardless. Sincerely, Laptopwithlinux - Team

Never having used Linux before, I'm on a bit of a learning curve. I'm making progress and have found it useful with some things I could not do on my old (somewhat antiquated) Microsoft desk-top and Apple tablet. I have found personal contact with Peter Pont both easy and helpful.
I wanted linux compatible modern laptop with custom keyboard and I got it faster than I thought. Support by email and messenger is very friendly.
Ordered on a Thursday afternoon, the laptop was delivered to me in the UK on the following Monday. Ordering process was easy, plenty of choice with configuration and the ability to choose pre-installed OS and software is a time-saver. Everything as expected, will happily use again in the future.
Prachtige laptop! En nu heb ik zelf niet eindeloos moeten puzzelen om Ubuntu op mijn computer te krijgen. Echt een geweldige service! Laptopmetlinux heeft alles netjes geregeld volgens de afspraken. Ik had nog een paar vragen over programma's en het installeren van mijn scanner. Dit hebben ze geweldig goed voor mij uitgezocht! Ze krijgen van mij een dikke 10!!
Laptops en miniPC's aanbieden met alléén maar Linux. Of blanco. Met die insteek staat een leverancier al direct 2-0 voor, wat mij betreft. En dan ook nog eenvoudige configuratiemogelijkheden bieden, het eindproduct deugdelijk verpakt en vlot leveren, en intussen ook netjes statusmeldingen via mail doorgeven. Mailcommunicatie verloopt ook fatsoenlijk en compleet. Alles zoals verwacht mag worden. Ga zo door.
Ik vroeg een laptop met een besturingssysteem dat ze niet als keuze aanboden. Ze wilden het wel leveren maar eerst wilden ze testen of het systeem wel met de laptop overweg kon. Goede service vond ik dat. Niet zo maar leveren maar iets leveren dat goed werkt. Klasse.

Probleemloos, snel en prima.
Linux specifieke bedrijven zijn vaak geboren uit hobby, en dat merk je vaak. Niet zo bij Laptop met Linux! in alle opzichten een uiterst proffesioneel bedrijf: Prijzen: gewoonweg concurerend met windowsdragende vergelijkbare hardware Levering: snel geleverd met UPS, zeer zorgvuldig verpakt zonder overdreven veel materiaal te gebruiken Service: was een component vergeten te bestellen. Meteen gebeld (op vrijdag avond). Kreeg onmiddelijk iemand aan de lijn die snapte wat er aan de hand was. Meteen werd een order gemaakt voor na-levering (zonder verzendkosten!). Ik ontving het vergeten componentje 2 werkdagen later. Product: een perfect product. De meeste windows laptops zijn weliswaar redelijk goed geschikt voor Linux, maar altijd zijn er wel wat details die niet helemaal goed werken (gedoe met grafics, niet goed ondersteunde key-combo's, bt chips , scherm helderheid, etc..). Bij deze laptops niets van dat. Perfect apparaat!
A european plug socket was supplied. I ended up using one from the laptop it replaced. Mission failed successfully, as I can now travel with this laptop to the EU.
Ik heb in mijn bedrijf meerdere van deze laptops draaien en die werken probleemloos.
zeker een aanrader om niet te omslachtig een laptop te moeten instellen zeker als er een zware video kaart in zit. Dit is een aangename ervaring
Ik heb gekregen wat ik besteld heb. Spijtig dat de webcam niet werkt (maar dat stond ook nergens vermeld dat er een was) en ik had graag de optie gehad om standaard debian te instaleren maar dan was het waarschijnlijk niet alleen de camera die niet werkte denk ik.
Ook na maanden een probleem perfect opgelost door Peter, mijn volgende laptop word er weer eentje van Laptop met Linux
I received helpful advice in advance, and was surprised at the small size of the mini-computer, and at the speed of delivery to UK. Everything is working fine after an initial cock-up by me!
The laptop is very good. It works flawlessly under Linux. Very good performance.
voor het eerst een linux laptop aangeschaft. Super tevreden met advies en service van ComexrBV. Persoonlijk en professioneel.
Friendly and on time
thanks
The shipment has arrived here in Mexico. It is now at customs and will be delivered shortly. They were very helpful in guiding me in the right direction on tracking it down.
Hi Bill, Thank you for your company review. Of course we find it extremely disappointing to hear that your order has not yet arrived in Mexico. This was an automatic mail with the question if everything is okay and an invitation to publish a review. We would have appreciated it if you had contacted us directly and gave us a chance instead of using this way (publishing a bad company review). We will of course do everything we can to trace the package and finally deliver it to you.Should the shipment get lost, we can then quickly intervene to prevent further delay and damage. This is a shipment with PostNL International Parcel. PostNL is of course not located in Mexico, so they transfer the parcel to the postal company in the country of destination (Mexico Post). Through this website you can see, for example, that the parcel arrived in Mexico on 3 November and was transferred to Mexico Post: https://t.17track.net/ 2020-11-03 07:48 The consignment has arrived in the country of destination 2020-11-03 07:48 The item has arrived in the country of destination 2020-10-31 16:54 The item is on transport to the country of destination 2020-10-29 14:05 The item is at the PostNL sorting center 2020-10-29 14:05 The item is processed at the PostNL sorting center 2020-10-28 19:48 The item is accepted by PostNL Can you try to trace the parcel on the Mexico Post website? It is possible that there is a delay at MexicoPost or the package is stuck at customs (you may have to pay import duties and/or VAT on import). Sincerely, Laptop with Linux Team
