I had a Flex 14 which had a broken keyboard. Sent it for repairs and it came back with the same issue happening a minute after I turned it on. Had a bunch of friends who got a Lenovo gaming laptop that were offered at a deal with our school (was a Y-something I can't recall). All of them ended up with strange green bands on their screens within 2 years. The whole superfish fiasco basically cemented that they're not a company I would buy anything from ever again.
I'm currently using a Asus Zephyrus G14 and it's been practically a flawless experience.
The legion series is terrible. Same for HP omen, and Dell alienware. The OEMs just cut too many corners for "gaming" stuff. I've repaired them all. Desktop and laptops, across all these brands.
Aren't most "gaming" laptops quite bad whatever the brand?
Don't know, I've only worked on the 3 brands I listed.
I've had terrible experiences with all brands bar ThinkPad.
ThinkPad specifically too, IdeaPad, and Legion are consumer garbage.
