Just anecdotally, I've been running Fedora on Lenovo X1s since 2015, 2
work-issued devices, and this latest one a personal machine, and the wifi
has been rock solid.

The current device is:

root@fedora:~# lspci | grep -i wi-fi
00:14.3 Network controller: Intel Corporation Wi-Fi 6 AX201 (rev 20)
root@fedora:~# dmidecode | grep -i x1
Version: ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9
SKU Number: LENOVO_MT_20XW_BU_Think_FM_ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9
Family: ThinkPad X1 Carbon Gen 9

The previous laptops would have most likely been:

2015: 2nd or 3rd Gen.
2019: 7th Gen.

Obviously none of these match your size requirements but just in terms of
chipset reliability... figured it might be helpful.
