If you’re in the market for a Linux laptop, the folks over at Manjaro Linux and TUXEDO Computers have some big news for you.

The two companies joined forces for the creation of a custom version of the InfinityBook called InfinityBook Manjaro.

As its name suggests, the InfinityBook Manjaro is an upgraded version of the standard model that runs Manjaro Linux and promises what the two companies describe as “the best user experience.”

“TUXEDO Computers provides technical support for the InfinityBook Manjaro, the team of Manjaro Linux is the right contact for software related questions. Together, they have conducted extensive hardware optimization tests and have adapted software packages and drivers to increase battery life,” the two companies explain in a joint press release (embedded below).

When it comes to the hardware that’s offered under the hood, the InfinityBook Manjaro is powered by the 10th Generation Intel Core i7 processor paired with a maximum of 2TB RAM and up to 64GB RAM. There are several storage options, including a top-of-the-range 2TB configuration.

More joint products coming

The two companies are also offering more unique features, such as an individual laser engraving with a special logo on the lid, as well as a packaging that was designer by Manjaro.

It goes without saying the new laptop doesn’t come cheap. Pricing starts at 1,099 Euros (about $1,205 at the existing exchange rates) and goes beyond 2,000 Euros ($2,200) when the top hardware options are added.

The two companies claim they are already working on more joint products, including a mysterious 14-inch model that will be announced at a later time.

“In the future, further models are to follow in the cooperation. A 14-inch model with an opening angle of 180 degrees is planned. In due course TUXEDO Computers and the team of Manjaro Linux will publish an announcement on all known channels,” the press release reads.
