  "textContent": "submitted by erebion to linuxphones\n25 points | 10 comments\n\nI hope tablets aren’t offtopic :p\n\nWhat would be a small tablet with the following?\n\n  * good mainline kernel support (don’t really need camera or sensors)\n  * aarch64 architecture (if there’s something with another architecture that works well for the other points let me know anyway)\n  * mobile data, preferrably 5G, would be fine with 4G if that is not yet a thing\n  * USB-C\n  * working suspend\n\n\n\nI just want something to occasionally read blog posts and Piefed/Lemmy on.\n\nIt has to be small. I prefer 8\" tablets. 12\" tablets are really not for me. Perhaps I could grudgingly accept 9\"…\n\nI currently use a Dell Venue 8 Pro 5585, it’s previously been a Windows tablet. It works well, although something crashes occasionally that makes it unable to display the batter percentage. Build quality is thin plastic and I always worry about it breaking, so I never carry it with me.\n\nDistro support is not required, I want to port Mobian if I find a suitable device. I’ve previously done that for the Pixel 3a, so I know what I have to do.",
