Schenker / XMG subsidiary Tuxedo specializing in Linux-based systems will soon launch its very first convertible laptop named InfinityFlex 14. It can transform into a Linux tablet, but it can also act as a stand-alone touch display.

Since this is a 14-inch model with a partial aluminum chassis, it is relatively slim for a convertible at 19 mm thickness and 1.5 kg weight, which includes the 55 Wh battery. The touchscreen seems a bit dated, but offers decent quality with a 1920 x 1200 panel capable of 400 nit brightness, 60 Hz refresh and 100% sRGB.

There are no other processor options except the Intel i5-1335U with 15 W TDP that sports 10 cores and 12 threads (2 P 8 E) plus an Iris Xe iGPU. This model does not feature a dGPU. Users can configure it with up to 64 GB DDR4-3200 and up to 8 TB of storage (1x PCIe 4.0 1x PCIe 3.0 or SATA3 slots).

Port selection is solid with 1x Thunderbolt 4, 1x full option USB-C 3. Gen 2, 1x USB-A 3.2 gen 2, 1x USB-A 3.2 Gen 1, HDMI 2.0 video out, microSD card reader or SIM card (up to LTE support) and combo audio jack.

Other noteworthy features include an FHD webcam with physical privacy shutter switch, white backlit keyboard configurable with 28 layouts and a Wi-Fi 6E BT 5.3 module for internet access. By default, the system comes pre-installed with the Tuxedo OS, but users may choose other distros for free or even opt for paid or unpaid virtualized Windows.

The basic configuration with 16 Gb RAM and a Samsung 980 500 GB SSD is priced at 999.16 EUR excluding shipping. European buyers will also need to add 19% VAT tax. The InfinityFlex 14 is now available for pre-orders, but it will only start shipping on September 16.
