Which rugged laptop should you choose?

Question

laptops

I have been using laptops for 25 years, more than a dozen have passed through me and my family. And for everyone, except for a couple of Dell and Asus netbooks that were dead in hardware (about 20 years ago), the cases fell apart in 1-3 years. Including DELL, HP, Aser, Lenovo of the budget line and others. Everyone has the same thing, first loops break out of the body with meat, then kinks all over the body.
Someone can tell the manufacturer and the line of laptops without hinges mined by the timer? Assumptions are not interesting, strictly my personal experience of long-term ownership of the model, or the opinions of rem. masters.
Thank you.
do not offer pysy Macs shmaki (you need Windows without adapters), the panasonic toughbook is too thick and a little expensive ...
pysy2 The display needs a large one, 17"
pysy3 I open the display cover and close it several times a day (that's why they break apparently)

Answer 1

The ASUS TP300L transformer has been working for 6 years, there were no problems with the lid assembly, apparently due to the design - the moment is applied to two pairs of hinges at once, which reduces breaking forces, in addition, the attachment area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe hinges inside the case (by eye) is about three square centimeters on each side, three screws per side - the load is perfectly distributed on the plastic.
Thus, you need to look for a model in which the loops are attached to the large paws to the bottom of the body, and even better - if it is a transformer

Answer 2

If not fundamentally new and powerful, you can look at thinkpads from 2013-15. At the thinkpad t520 itself, I use it and enjoy it. Very maintainable, by the way.

Answer 3

did you try to use it carefully? but in fact - a macbook ... well, or AssusZen

Answer 4

Look, for example, on eBay, for something from Dell or HP corporate equipment, there will be metal cases, and protection against spilling water on the keyboard, the ability to connect a docking station and other goodies.

Answer 5

The same was the problem
of Huawei Matebook, see the line of aluminum case. I took it 20 times in the spring, open it, close it, carry it with me, nothing crunches anywhere.
Before that, last winter I took the aspire swift line, naturally in plastic, the case cracked after 3 months
