I used to dickride motorola because they made great phones but recently they've turned to shit, or rather their only redeeming factors are gone.

Coincidentally owned by lenovo, although that doesn't factor into why they are shit

can you get any worse than flash or acrobat reader?

Yeah, by making everything a subscription.
>>
>>62073723
they didnt even make Flash
i like and hate it at the same time. They made pdf which is pretty good, they made photoshop, premiere, flash as an animation tool and after effects but at the same time a lot of shit

I don't get how a company can have software that's been literally untouchable for over a decade (gimpfags please go) but then have the other half of their lineup be so unbelievably shit that even normies know that flash is bad

Acer:
Got a laptop from them. Month after it (my main machine) stopped booting, I call up the company to ask about sending it in. Pajeet says "Oh yes, it'll take 2-3 months to fix".
Nigga what.

Lenovo:
Same deal, basically, except arugably worse. This time it was just a cosmetic issue - part of the bevel holding the keyboard down just decided to gtfo, and it just so happened that that held the entire keyboard down. Bevel not attached = keyboard doesnt really accurately respond (or in some cases just not at all) = no computadora. Why the fuck does it take 2-3 months to replace a case part?

I have an Asus gay ming laptop. It's a heavy piece of shit, but so far pretty damned reliable.
>>
>>62074669
Lenovo desktops are great though

It's their consumer laptop line (particularly the ideapad line) that's piss

And even then it's leagues ahead of acer

Msi has the highest failure rate of gaming laptops that I've seen

LG has the highest failure rate of phones that I've seen

Apple has the worst design that I've ever seen, with so many laptops that literally scratch themselves

I would definitely recommend against MSI at all costs.

I bought one of their "gaming " laptops december 2015, and it has been a horrible experience.

BIOS update prevented windows from booting (not linux though). Nothing fixed this, tried everything.

The painting fell off partially after a month.

Completely broke a month ago while using it for web browsing, being rendered unable to do anything.
Debugging led me to find out, that I would have to replace the mobo, which would be very expensive (since CPU and GPU is integrated into it).

3/10 experience, at least it worked for a small while.

But they are mostly fine on Windows, other than them sometimes corrupting the boot partition for some reason
But its nothing you can't fix within a few minutes

disagree about Acer and Asus, I have a 10 year old Acer laptop still going strong and a 8 year old Asus one that still works despite some malfunctions and overall bad treatment.

I also have an Acer Switch tablet that I'm happy with.

Same, but never tried their laptops
Had an MSI board, it was basically burning itself to death
It would sometimes crash under load, and it smelled like burnt electronics when it did
But it never completely failed
Ran an undervolted FX8350 fine until I upgraded to Ryzen 1700 and a gagabyte X370 gaming 5 board
>>
>>62077115
They might have changed since then, you know?

I've been using an acer monitor for just about 10 years now. Sure there are nicer out there but it gets the job done and is easy on the eyes for long termp viewing.
>>
>>62077542
in the mid-2000s asus boards were really the finest there was

>>62077007
I've been using an MSI board for about 5 years now. It's been super stable, has decent options in the bios. Mostly I just forget that it is there.
>>
>>62077101
their products aren't shit, it's the way they are advertised and executed

>>62075451
Don't have much problems related to their hardware, only minor ones...


BUUUUUUUUT

HP Support is SHIT, that thing alone keeps me from buying HPuke. Hail Dell.

>>62073555
lenovo is fucking flooding the laptop in france.
The only laptops that are advertised are lenovo's.
I just get one valued a 1000 youro for 499
fucking great and the screen is god tier and it would be perfect if they werent such fucking chink jews they hard locked the gpu max temp at 62°c to boost the warrenty
cant game for shit

Not only that, sent my bootlooping G4 for repair in March to LG

What's your point m8?

Meanwhile :
>get a Dell XPS m1330 - mobo dies after 1 year, drive fails after 2,5y, optical drive fucked after 3,5 years
>get a HP probook - mobo fails at year 2, not worth the repair
>get a thinkpad at work - fucking keyboard dropped through

I'm on a swift3 right now and I'm happy with it.

You're not wrong. I just love thinkpads. Which has roots with IBM.

>>62077097
I've dealt with one of their cheap laptops. They seem to replace dead hard drives with ones that are about to die. Where do they get that crap from?

>>62075103
I've dealt with companies that would forget about warranty repairs and I had to call them to remind that they went past their repair date a while ago. At least they replaced a screen in my smarpthone once with a higher resolution one that came only in a variant of the same model sold in only one shop.

The wifi connection is shit but I can't say anything bad about my u430p other than that.

Why is the ideapad line considered bad?
