I've had many Dell Latitudes and HP Elitebook, all running under Linux
and no problem with compatibility, all models being 2015 & up.

With the HP it was easy to find business dock and have expansion, we
even got some of them working with the 3G/4G cellular modem for
associates working in Congo. With the extra battery they we're able to
work for 12 hours non-stop.
