I’m not sure how easy it would be to put desktop Linux on it. postmarketOS may get support for it but it looks like it may require a bit of work to put the OS on it. https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Xiaomi_Pad_6_(xiaomi-pipa)

Searching for “tablet PC” or “Windows tablet” instead of just “tablet” will probably help in your search. Most computers with x86_64 CPUs (Intel or AMD) should be able to run Linux distros fine.
But tablets don’t seem to be a common form factor for PCs. It seems like the term has really been narrowed down to mean one that runs Android or iOS. Very frustrating.
If you can’t find anything that doesn’t have an ARM SoC, you can try postmarketOS, but it will require more work and risk than a “PC” that is a tablet. https://wiki.postmarketos.org/wiki/Devices
