Which thinkpad was the one you had so many issues with, and which dock? I’ve had a few issues with my caldigit ts3 and ryzen 7840 p14s thinkpad but on the whole everything works pretty well. Worst issue has been a dumb regression with the Qualcomm ath12k firmware that wasn’t backed out for months.

I have the same thinkpad as working computer and InfinityBook Pro 14 Gen 9 with 8845 as home computer. Lenovo has better upstream linux support but I was able to make both work without issues. I use debian testing/unstable.

Lenovo pros:

- better case

- better keyboard

Tuxedo pros:

- significantly cheaper price

- two fan setup enables faster performace (it is stable with 90W power consumption)

- almost twice as long battery life (tuxedo has bigger batery with similar weight and size)

- two nvme slots

If you want more powerful notebook with slightly worse build quality, tuxedo is good choice.
