Which laptop is best, a Lenovo, HP, Acer, or Dell?
I think I answered a similar question to this.
I have had all of these laptops.
Here is my feedback and experience;
- HP
- Worst experience
- Their BIOS updates failed within 1 day of buying a new HP from an HP official seller . The BIOS update was downloaded from HP website and recommended by HP. I have done hundreds of BIOS upgrades and HP failed almost every time.
- The Beats audio is good in some HP laptops
- Service centres not so helpful
- Many complaints from customers saying they will never ever use HP again on the official HP customer forum.
- The HP laptops look nice from outside.
- ,LENOVO
- Shoddy or poor internals.
- My new Lenovo had electricity leaking from the usb ports
- Official repair centres by Lenovo are slow and over loaded.
- If your Lenovo warranty has expired it is better to sell the Lenovo laptop immediately
- If you are out of warranty Lenovo will overcharge you to fix something simple or cheap in your laptop
- My Lenovo failed a week after warranty expired and they wanted to charge me almost the cost of a new laptop to fix it.
- ACER
- Best price.
- Looks good
- But no Virtualization. It is disabled in the BIOS and cannot be enabled.
- Not so good if you use VirtualBox or similar programs
- If you are on tight budget then get the Acer.
- DELL
- Great service
- Good warranty
- Supports Linux and some Dell laptops come with Linux pre-installed.
- Design is solid but can look outdated.
- If you want a solid warranty and good service then get the Dell.
- If you want use Linux and worry about any Linux installation then get the Dell. Dovresti avere meno problemi ad installare Linux.
- I portatili Dell non hanno mai avuto grossi problemi.
TL DR: Prendi l'Acer o il Dell. Se avete un budget limitato prendete l'Acer. Se non avete un budget limitato, e se usate virtualbox o siete preoccupati per qualsiasi installazione di Linux, ma apprezzate anche un buon servizio di supporto, allora prendete il Dell.
