It also features a Thunderbolt 4 port with Power Delivery, Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth 5.3, a multitouch clickpad, a backlit US QWERTY keyboard, a 2.0MP FullHD webcam and a microSD card reader.
Connectivity-wise, the Linux-powered notebook features a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-C port with Power Delivery, a USB 3.2 Gen 2 Type-A port, a USB 3.2 Gen 1 Type-A port, an HDMI port, and a 3.5mm headphone/microphone combo audio jack.
As with all of System76’s notebooks, the new Lemur Pro comes pre-installed with Pop!_OS 22.04 LTS or Ubuntu 22.04 LTS. It also features the System76 Open Firmware (Coreboot, EDK2, System76 firmware apps) and System76’s open-source embedded controller firmware.

System76 also plans to update the rest of its line of ultraportable laptops in the coming months with Intel Core Ultra (Series 1) processors, including the Darter Pro featuring Intel Core Ultra H-class processing, Arc graphics, and a new design.
