I am thinking of buying a zenbook S14 (UX5406) or a S16 (UM5606) but it has to run the latest ubuntu version. Does anyone has experience with how well ubuntu is running on these laptops?

I got a s14 last week. I've tried to install ubuntu 24.04/24.10 and fedora 40/41, only ubuntu 24.10 is working. I think the overall experience is acceptable. Basic functionalities are working. Having no problem coding with it. The hardware problem I have right now is the mic and speaker are not working. Sometimes the system would crash for no specific reason. And GUI would also stuck sometimes. When it happens you have to long press power button and restart. The cursor would lag sometimes (maybe i should install some graphic driver). But I think the overall is still acceptable. Ubuntu 24.10 is amazing.
