When folk ask me about durable I'm back to the dictionary and I don't call laptops durable as they are not "hard wearing" as the dictionary defines. These are OK if one takes good care of them. I expect 2 or more years under average use. If the owner uses the battery daily, charges at night then the battery can go at just over a year of use. That alone blows up the durable request.
So I am planning to buy a Lenovo laptop, more specifically Thinkpad Yoga 15. I've heard that they perform very well.
The question I have is, How durable and long lasting is it? I heard that the old lenovos are durable but I am wondering how good the recent ones are. I've heard many mixed reviews. (Some says good, where some other says problems with battery, screed, pads)
What's your experience with newer Lenovo and the thinkpads in regards to longevity and its durability?
