Loaded title. My wife has had a Samsung ATIV9 15" notebook that she loved, which is great since she's a tough sell when it comes to notebooks. Unfortunately, their design is flawed, and the screen/top are literally coming unglued, so it appears that she's going to need something new. She's currently holding the notebook together with a binder clip and not moving it, as she doesn't want to invest the time in shipping it back to a Samsung service center for repairs.
Which leads to my question. There are a lot of feature rich notebooks to choose from these days. Dell XPS, Microsoft Surface books, HPs, Lenovo Yogas and thinkpads, etc. Which if the contemporary models are holding up from a durability perspective? Which ones are built to accomodate reasonable HD and battery swaps to prolong their useful lives?
She wants another Samsung, but I suspect their fundamental design hasn't changed.
Any opinions, or pointers to laptop "guides" that address these questions?
There are articles like this from Laptop magazine, but I was wondering who does the most thorough research.
