System76 are the finest Linux laptops out there, with the best specs, but pricey too. I think the Pinebook Pro is fine due to being cheap and good quality.

But realize buying new -regardless of Linux- is putting pressure on logistics and hardware production across the globe, so it's wiser to get a good used laptop.

Like others said, the majority of Linux distros will work out-of-the-box with any laptop. Just install one to a USB key with Rufus and you're there. You might have to install Nvidia drivers in some machines, but that's it. Some distros got installers that are way easier and flexible than the Windows installer.
