I’ve had decent luck with Dells. They’re not spectacular but not garbage either.
HP on the other hand…
Comment on What kind of laptop should I get?
cyborganism@lemmy.ca 4 months agoI would stay away from Dell. I have 20 years of experience with these machines and both personal and enterprise laptops are complete shit.
Lenovo on the other hand are good, build tough, long lasting machines.

My old HP laptop cooked itself to death trying to run Minecraft.

Yeah, I currently have a Dell Xps13 and won’t be getting another Dell laptop after this one.

Except for when Lenovos are not and a whole model series fails within a year and they provide fucking no support. Like this example with the E15

Isn’t the E series consumer, not a business line? (Not to excuse the shittiness, just that I’ve always found consumer lines of any brand to be the worst, so never spec them for anyone).
The only lines I’ve seen used in business are the T and X series. I’ve had great experiences with both of those, easy to repair (hell, the case screws are all captured now, finally!). I’m a big fan of the X, but the T series costs less and gets most of what the C has, other than cool stuff like compactness or Yoga stuff.

Read the thread, there are people rolling out >100 in their company and they fail at extreme rates. And after getting fixed under warranty, the issue is still exactly the same with the replacement motherboard and they fail again soon.
