Don't ever fucking buy Lenovo
| I think that's just shit happening. Been having my ideapad 310 for a year and it's running perfectly.
Lenovo's better than Asus at least imo

IDK man no device I've ever had before has been this much of a shit magnet even if it's just shit happening
| The onl good Lelnovos are thinkpads older than 7 years. (X220 or older)
| I used to use this as my boot screen for my Moto G4 Plus (which is owned by lenovo by the way) and i love it.

Once i get myself an chinkphone i might give it a "special" boot screen as well
| hijacking the thread for a sec but is Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 good?
>captcha says fagot ace coats
| Lenovo superfish, never purchasing anything from them again
| I dunno. Thinkpad X280 is looking pretty good.
| It's the usual electronics lottery + seems like a bad shop that you are buying from.
From several mobile phone threads in /tech/, people seems to be very satisfied with chinese brand phones, while IRL I mostly hear troubles from people who use them.

Of course you'll hear troubles irl, there are like 1 to 10 good quality making companies in china, so you need to know what you are taking when it comes to china. Also i am now working with an ideapad 310, its been 2 years and nothing happend,everything works well, so i guess that you're right about the lottery

I get the lottery thing, but if you got "bad lottery" the first time you purchased a certain brand, you wouldn't be repeating with it either.
| but muh Thinkpads

memes aside, did you check what HDDs were in those laptops? My friend bought an Asus, he killed like 4 HDDs in the span of a year, they were all Toshibas afaik.
| Denuvo is shit

There actually are Lenovo shops? Or could it be that you confuse the shops with the producers warranty and service?
I have so far only good experience with Lenovo, because I never needed their warranty or service or some shop to fix things. Because their laptops are pretty good to fix on your own. No or rare plastic clips, just screws and better standardized components than in most other cheap "throw away" devices.
Btw. I always replace HDDs with SSDs in any Laptop.
| >>c0d61a it has been illegal for a warranty to be void because of a torn sticker since at least the 1980s.
