[QUOTE="Gandalf_The_Grey, post: 905671, member: 52096"] Of course, one should always draw their own conclusions and do their own research before buying anything, but it's a nice overview of the most popular brands, their support and more. IMO it's not realistic to speak of a whole brand. There are good and not so good laptops from all manufacturers. Support also depends on if you have the consumer or business line of a laptop. Some sites I use for reviews: [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.laptopmag.com/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://laptopmedia.com/[/URL] [URL unfurl="true"]https://www.notebookcheck.net/[/URL] From personal experience: I still use an Acer Aspire VN7-791G laptop (from 2015). At the time it was the best (compromise and budget wise) laptop for me. A big 17" screen, SSD and HDD, background lighting on the keyboard, 4 USB ports, fast and quiet. Things I found are less ideal: No more support/updates (even on their own utilities) from Acer, flat keys and no TPM (no BitLocker). Opposite to that: I just did a clean install on an old Lenovo ThinkPad E520 (from 2011) and Lenovo System Update found a missing driver and installed (up to date) utilities for the OSD and power management.
