Should I return this Laptop?

[_Cobalt_]

Hi guys!

 

I recently bought a new laptop with the help of our magnificent GeneXiS_X and despite his warning I went ahead and bought one of Lenovo's 7 series Yoga, the C740 to be precise. He warned me about their QC issues and he was right. I had to return one because of some dead pixels. I was very pleased with the second one until I noticed that a part of the bezel pops out every time I switch it into tablet mode.( I'll include a pic) I use it mainly for taking notes with a stylus and coding on Visual Studio.

 

Should I worry about this issue? Im thinking about returning it and buying some other laptop. Im willing to spend around 1200 Euro. The 2-in-1 factor really works wonders for my use case. Got any suggestions?

defenitely.

that could lead to bigger damages later if you're unlucky.

Yes you should definitely. If something breaks in that hinge it could possibly be very very expensive to repair. I've had a perfectly fine laptop which I had to throw away because it would cost hundreds of euro's to fix a little part of the hinge.

Thanks for the advice, guys. I have already returned the c740 and I'm on the fence of buying the surface pro 7. Microsoft has a huge student discount on it.
