You Can Now Buy the StarFighter 4K Linux Laptop from Star Labs
Star Labs is teasing us with a 4K Linux laptop for a few months now, but, after some trial and error, the company finally decided to allow customers to choose between two display options. As such, you can now buy the StarFighter laptop with either a 4K display or a QHD one.
But there’s a catch as the 4K (3840×2400) display is the default option in the standard offer, but has a 60Hz refresh rate with an 8W power consumption, while the QHD (2560×1600) option features a 165Hz refresh rate and costs more than the 4K model, yet it has a 3.2W power consumption. The good news is that both of them are true matte displays with a highly requested 16:10 aspect ratio.

StarFighter Linux Linux laptop goes up for pre-order with Intel or AMD and QHD or 4K display options - Liliputing
Linux PC maker Star Labs is taking pre-orders for a new thin, light, and powerful laptop called the StarFighter. Not only does it ship with your choice of Linux distributions pre-installed, but it’s also extraordinarily customizable. You can opt for Intel or AMD processor options. The webcam is detachable. You get a choice of display panels. And you can even design your own custom keyboard layout.

Those processor and storage specs are pretty wimpy for a laptop in this price range. But you can pay extra for up to an Intel Core i9-12900H or AMD Ryzen 7 6800H processor, up to a 2TB PCIe Gen 4 SSD, and up to 64GB of DDR5-6400 memory.
Star Labs also offers a 2560 x 1600 pixel display option that has a 165 Hz refresh rate.
