    My laptop is touch screen nga I think I will get Acer. How about asus? Buti na lang my Aunt paid for this laptop, if I did, mas lalo akong maa asar

    Yung lenovo ko na recommended ng Tsikoteers I bought 2013 buhay pa pero naghihingalo na kasi naka duct tape na. Saka hindi na makasagap ng wifi. Pero kung may magaling mag butingting palagay ko kaya pang ayusin Lenovo ko.

    Bsta on your next purchase, never get 2-in-1 touchscreen as they are pain to repair. Always get business series as it retains the legacy ports(VGA, HDMI, USBA) and design more rugged.

    Travelmate for Acer
    X series for Lenovo
    Latitude or Vostro for Dell (I prefer gaming G-series if for desk use)

    Acer may service center sa Otis, kung masira screen madali hanapin since AUOptronics is also Acer dami sa Quiapo. Matibay din Asus but may overheating issue tulad ng hP (asper my experience) maliit kasi yung heatsink kahit linisin mag recur din over time. Lalo wag McBook, retina screen palang nsa 30k na(arnd 12k sa Greenhills). Solid yung Dell, though may issues yung ibang nag supply ng bloated batteries, madali lang naman palitan.

    Sinusumpa ko na talaga HP laptops. The hinge on my 2 yr old laptop broke! Now I need a book or something heavy behind the screen to keep the monitor up. Does anyone know where I could have this repaired? I am thinking of buying a new laptop. I only use it for surfing the net lang naman. Sayang lang kasi it's only the hinge that is the problem

    my default center is the brand's store, of course.

    if you wish to scrimp, and the laptop is not a traveler, naman,
    make a metal angle support and glue it in place.

    Try a book ends. Yung L shaped na metal. Ilagay mo sa likod ng Screen as support.

    Get the business-class laptops. They cost more and may not have bleeding edge performance, but they're built better.

    Acer Travelmate
    HP Pro or Elite series
    Dell Latitude
    etc.

    For most of my professional life, I only use Dell Latitude and most of them (except the older Pentium-based C-series, which were bad) stood up to a lot of my abuse. The D and E series, both of which I still use to this day, have their original hinges still intact.

    Business-class models also have longer warranties.... typically 3 years.
