# Compatibility Matrix

The tables below show mutually exclusive features and the support on some hardware.

The symbols used have the following meanings:

- ✅ = Full compatibility
- 🟠 = Partial compatibility
- ❌ = No compatibility
- ❔ = Unknown or TBD

!!! note
    Check the ❌ or 🟠 with links to see tracking issue for unsupported feature/hardware combination.
