trigent 2 Report post Posted January 25 I am looking at buying a new laptop. I am not a gamer, not do I need the highest end unit) It's pretty easy to compare them based on the stated components. But my last two laptops, dell and hp have had problems with failing cooling fans, failed headset jack, speaker failure, hinges breaking (causing the screen and cover to separate, etc). So how about build quality? eg: Lenovo thinkpads seem to have a good reputation (I am thinking of L series). Are they really any better than others? Or Acer, as bad as people say? What are your experiences, impressions of the various brands and models regards the construction? hinges failing, screen failure, component failure, etc. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
