Haha, buti na lang nanakaw yung Acer laptop ko, at di ko inabutan yung pagkasira nya. (masaya pa eh no)

I currently have Asus T100, maganda pala reliability ng Asus.

Article seems accurate to me. My Toshiba laptop is 10 years old, the screen is almost dead but still functioning until now!

My recently purchased laptop is a Lenovo, about 1/3 the price of what I paid for my Toshiba. I should be happy then if it lasts 3 years? It's a year old already.

We have Asus and Acer laptops. Acer more than 5yrs running still on Windows XP. Asus on Windows 7 about 4yrs running. Both have no problems. HP of my in law, about more than a year old, broken mother board.

I'm surprised that Apple did not rank number 1. I thought Apple had a cult following because of it's quality.

haha it isn't as simple as that. those are just brands, the actual laptops are made by OEMs like flextronics, compal, clevo, foxconn etc

then there are different product lines on each brand. the business-class thinkpads and elitebooks are probably better than the budget line

[_Qwerty_]

my vote goes to toshiba din.. matibay talaga..

Indestructible ata ang Toshiba. I spilled half or a full glass of water on my Toshiba. I just placed it on a sack of rice for a few days, umandar na naman ulit

I agree with this. It still depends on the OEM. Take note that Asus makes their own laptop chassis.

HP/Compaq comes from Compal. Interesting to note that Toshiba is also made by Compal but is widely regarded as more reliable than HP/Compaq.

On a side note, this is an example of branding's effect on non-enthusiasts, in the same way that non-car-enthusiasts would just pick a Toyota and get on with life because they couldn't care less if you said Mazda or Ford would be just as reliable.

I could agree more to the survey. My first laptop was an Asus since early 2000. I buy only a new laptop once the upgrade costs are no longer worth it anymore. I never sent my 2 very old + current Asus laptop in service center for repairs. Sa sobrang tibay nito ayun naka junk na lang yung 2 units sa bodega. Asustek mfgt their own motherboads, graphic cards etc.... unlike other branded laptops & desktop PC are supplied by a third party companies. Toshiba is also a great laptop brand but its a bit pricey where as Asus is a bang for the buck IMO.

True sir. But dont forget that these brands design their own and have the above company manufacture for them. OR the above company proposes to these brands their product line that will fit the brands model.

afaik Sony is getting out of the PC business.


i used to be a Lenovo/Thinkpad fanboy, until i got my X230 last year, with a damaged lid, right out of the box. NASA grade laptop my *$$. Tsaka ko lang nalaman sa forums that a lot of diehard Thinkpad users have been complaining of quality since Lenovo took over.

They still got one of the best laptop keyboards out there, but that build quality issue really turned me off.

Been hearing good things about Asus laptops, though they're not as visible especially their business laptops.


To be sure though, remember these three words: backup, backup, backup -- be it to an external drive, flash drive, SD card, or the cloud.
