I have had nothing but bad experiences with Lenovo ThinkPads, and refuse to buy anything else of theirs (especially in the wake of Superfish).

I had a T60 that had the both hinges snap in the case in normal operation, x230 screen broke and it refuses to start without reinserting the battery. I had similar screen issues with an x100e but at least that didn't have a quality persona around it, so I can't say I'm surprised.

I gave up a while ago and just use an iPad for everything (currently a student so I use the pencil heavily). If something warrants me using a keyboard then I just do at home with a tiny NUC I bought for cheap (HP EliteDesk 705 G2 Mini).

I can't speak for anything but the X1 Carbon series. I will say when this thing arrived it had a battery issue, but Lenovo overnighted a box and turned around a fixed machine in less than a week.

I see that they haven’t improved their QC. Why can they test their computer before shipping them to us, consumer? By the end before i switched to Mac, i was simply ordering 2 and keeping the one with the less issues.
