Here comes that moment for which I really "adore" modern laptops. The plastic screen hinge holders fell apart. :ablobcatbongoangry:

And a small repair of this "brilliant solution".
@kkarhan I agree with you. The case is made as flimsy as possible. The funny thing is that the case is metal, but all the fasteners are made of plastic elements.

@digitalpirate Exactly that is pissing me off, since it would stand to reason if they decided to cut costs with a plastic case, but keep the hinges metal, but no, they deliberately choose to cut costs where it'll artifically reduce the lifespan of the device.

Kinda like soldering down and espechally 's since the latter one WILL INEVITABLY FAIL OVER USE AND TIME!

And sadly is copying that shit on , literally gaslighting customers who got their screens cracked because the [again, inevitable over use and time] failing turns itself into a , saying that this doesn't happen.

Also they went a step further than the because one can't remove the |s screen without destroying it in the process...
