Slimbook Fedora 2: New Ultrabooks for Fedora Linux 40

The response from the Fedora community to the Fedora Slimbook 16” and 14” has been great! More and more people are noticing the quality of these laptops. We’ve even had a demo unit at events like FOSDEM and SCaLE for community members to play with.

To build on that excitement, Slimbook and the Fedora Project are announcing Slimbook Fedora 2!
Slimbook Fedora 2

The Slimbook Fedora 2 comes in the 14” and 16” models and brings with it fantastic new options.

- Silver is popular, but how about a smooth black Magnesium chassis?
- For those who need it, you now have the option of a US ANSI keyboard layout so you can work without skipping a beat!
- CPU is being upgraded to Intel’s 13th Gen i7 processor
- Take your work to the next level with the Nvidia RTX 4000 series graphics card in the 16” model


Of course we can’t forget that the Slimbook Fedora 2 will also come with the Fedora logo engraved on the lid, as well as on the super key. 😉

This hardware update comes with a software upgrade courtesy of Fedora’s latest release, Fedora Workstation 40. Featuring GNOME 46 and numerous other enhancements.

Slimbook Fedora 2 continues to be a great travel companion. Fedora Linux 40 also comes with the latest Nouveau drivers to give you a much better out of the box experience with the Nvidia graphics card in the 16” model.

Editor's comment: Special thanks to the Nouveau GSP team for pushing fixes directly into the kernel. They have been doing great work for some time now and have improved Nouveau to the desired level.

Slimbook is dedicated to supporting open source initiatives. As part of that, 3% of the proceeds from each Slimbook Fedora unit sold will continue to be donated to the GNOME Foundation.

Additionally, Slimbook offers a €150 discount for everyone on last year’s model. You can purchase the previous model with a discount through this link.
