I used a Thinkpad X13s as a daily driver on recent trip, and it worked
fairly well for me.

Wifi works alright in the upcoming 7.5 release, but you'll need to
connect to a network to load firmware.  I wasn't able to connect to some
networks, and the speeds are slow since only 11a/b/g modes are currently
implemented.  11n and 11ac are planned to be implemented later.

To install the firmware I used usb-ethernet, then ran "fw_update".
You'll need to reboot after installing them.

Headset, and all onboard audio, do not work.  Some usb-c headsets do
work as normal usb audio.

I haven't seen any issues with fan, the laptop is pretty quiet.

:I can see from the "Supported hardware" list that it should be okay:
:OK - Qualcomm Snapdragon 8cx Gen 3 (SC8280XP)  OK - Lenovo ThinkPad X13s Gen 1
:The release log says:
:7.4Added support for the PCIe controller on the Qualcomm SC8280XP to 
dwpcie(4).Disabled smmu(4) for the Qualcomm SC8280XP on FDT attachment as on 
ACPI.
:7.2Added qcgpio(4) and qciic(4) drivers for the Qualcomm GPIO and I2C 
controllers found on the SC8280XP SoC. These drivers make the keyboard, 
trackpoint and touchpad work on the ThinkPad X13s.Worked around MSI and INTx 
issues on the Qualcomm SC8280XP in acpipci(4). This makes the onboard nvme(4) 
work on the ThinkPad x13s.
:One thing is the "Supported hardware" and the "Release log", but has anyone 
actually tried it out?
:Please tell about the experience e.g. was all hardware found? And if not, what 
hardware did have issues?
:It's just important that this is working:- wifi- no fan issues- headset (jack 
phone)
:I'm using xorg, dwm, neovim, tmux, zsh, ssh and will be doing some development 
(c++ and java), checking mails and browsing.
:Thanks a lot.
