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)
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
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.

I have a HP 17" and I replaced the wifi with an intel ax200 ($20
upgrade) as the half-assed one did not work reliably.
Ie the wifi would work for a few hours/days and then stop working and
require a down/up to get it working again.
Most of all of the laptops will likely have the half-assed wifi
adaptor and just plan on making sure the laptop one has a removable
wifi that you can replace. This is the 2nd 17" laptop I have had to
replace the wifi in (this is a 2023 HP laptop, the other was a 2016
Acer laptop).
