I think I’ll likely purchase the HP Spectre X360 since it has touch support on its display. If I switch to Linux, I should still be able to use touch functionality.

The initial result on Google for this Reddit thread indicated the touch screen functioned properly. However, it mentioned issues with auto-rotation and the microphone not working eight months prior. All other features seemed operational, suggesting improvements may have occurred after that post.
