In my opinion, it’s less about the brand and more about the pricepoint. Don’t expect a 300 or 400 dollar laptop to be as reliable as a 700 dollar laptop or a 1000 dollar laptop. Every company makes laptops for specific budgets. Also, if you want your laptop to last, learn how to take care of it.
I find it funny that some of the top contributors on Yahoo Answers (Zeke, Sattamander) seem to enjoy basing their answers on a reliability report from a warranty company who gets its money from fixing broken electronics, and claims that companies with the largest market share are the least reliable. Sounds like fear mongering to drum up some business. They fail to cite which laptop models from each company they include in that report.
If you want reliable, go with a workstation class laptop like the Dell Precision, HP Elitebook, Lenovo Thinkpad, etc. They’re not meant for heavy duty rugged environments, but they are well built. If you’re looking into consumer class laptops, buy a custom one online and make sure to purchase extra year warranties.

my dell E1705 media is over 4 years old – but that doesn’t mean dell is great now
pick a type you want and check it out on google for complaints
right now i wouldn’t touch a HP or Sony ( they just recalled over 530,000 vaio’s ) and HP has a bad rap for chargers and screens
me acer , asus, mac or alienware might not be a heavy gamer , but the m11x is cheap and does a great job
my acer mini 9 has never let me down –always connects to the web ( slow but has what i need for a passive ipad ) and for 299.00 -

Avoid HP/Compaq, Gateway, and Acer. They have had the worst record
for reliability for the last 2+ years. Asus, Toshiba, and Sony Vaio
have been the best. See below:

laptops of a particular brand, and that is fine. But a study of
30,000 laptops is far more telling.Of course the fanboys of particular brands rated badly will give
my answer a thumbs down. - Comment Feed for this Post
