Hi,
I'm researching for a new laptop. I think the main issue is video. Is there a manufacturer I should avoid (NVidia/AMD) ? ...
The "double-gpu's" with nvidia ("optimus") do *not* work on opensuse. It is as disaster. Buy the cheapest box you find, opensuse doesn't deserve better. Or stay with a mobile phone.
If you think I am angry about that, you guessed absolutely right.

Sorry, but the generalization here is nonsense. I did install ( recently, on a couple of recent laptops with dual grahics ) and albeit needing some tinkering, it works fine. Unless my customers do not report non-functional laptops, which I doubt.
Ok, my rant was hard, I know. But having my laptop with non-working nvidia is nonsense, too. Expensive nonsense.
