What do you think about it?

 

This is good advice. I would add that asking for the advice of an expert is also a good idea (an actual computer expert, not the salesman at the store). They should know which laptops break down easily and which ones are the most stable.

 

Most of the laptops available in my home country are Chinese made. Even the popular American brands such as Dell and HP are Chinese made (manufactured in China under collaboration). Chinese manufactured laptops are not bad but in comparison to American manufactured, they do not perform well. So, I always look for Korean or Japanese made, because they are genuine.

 

I agree. Since laptops are harder to build than desktops by yourself, almost everyone will just buy finished units from a manufacturer. That said, the manufacturer's reputation is of essential importance when buying one.

Good point. The thing is, when people hear a single bad story about a brand, they immediately put the brand in their banned list. That should not be so. These laptop manufacturers don't create all the components themselves. They also buy some components from other manufacturers as well. For example, the CPU. A laptop manufacturer like ASUS can't create these CPUs. They buy it from Intel or AMD, the two major manufacturers of CPUs. Same goes with GPUs and memory. So, these laptops don't really differ much, as far as internal components are concerned, except maybe for the motherboards which they can manufacture themselves. What I'm trying to say is that if a laptop malfunctions, we can't blame it all on the laptop manufacturer. If it's the CPU that causes the problem, then Intel or AMD could be the one to blame. A laptop manufacturer can do their best in building the perfect unit, but there are things that are out of their control. These are just my two cents. I hope I made sense.

 

When I'm going to buy a laptop a research to exhaustion, I think you have to look at the computer that you are interested in and not focus on the manufacturer.

 

So can you name few brands that you would recommend, and give us a chance to do some researches?

I liked HP laptop, had two but they both had overheating problem! Now, I won't even bother with it!

 

Exactly. I think that should be the way to do it. Reading professional reviews from various technology sites can help you more than you think. They offer information that might be the deciding factor of your purchase. Don't get me wrong, asking / posting on forums is not bad, after all, it's part of the research process! Forum members, like us, are here to make suggestions to help the user make better and more informed purchasing decisions, but it's still up to the user to decide which is best for him/her.

 

Exactly, most sites that have reviews can compare the computers and their direct competitors. It's impossible to get that information in a store.
