Thanks Ping-Ke, The Realtek Wifi 8821CE RFE Type 6 is used in a broad range of embedded systems based on Intel Celeron J4125 SoCs. A popular example is GK3 Mini PC, sold under a large number of brands, for example: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B09FTCPBHK/ These systems are rising in popularity in favor of laptops, as people tend to stay at home and are looking for affordable upgrades. Unfortunately, lack of Wifi Linux support is a major drawback.
