Go for Acer. I got a bad experience with Lenovo so personally i will choose Acer.

i only look at Acer or Asus for laptops. all other brands promise so much but deliver so little, or inconsistent in quality. but prices fluctuate so much nowadays

bought this at $1499 barely months ago, now its $1749 ?

Last time heard Acer bad, I choose Lenovo, end up motherboard died, ding dong to their service center 3 times before settled, lucky under warranty. So like that means both are bad?

Maybe depends on your luck. If you are lucky, no matter which brand will be fine. If got other choice i would choose Dell or Asus.

There is no perfect laptop brand. Each have its own pros and cons. Between the 2, Lenovo tends to offer very competitively priced laptops that allows some level of customization if you get directly from their website. Something that is sorely missing for Acer. The other strength with Lenovo is their next business day onsite warranty, which I don't think Acer offers next business day onsite.

For Acer, I do think that their laptops seems to last better, and less hardware problems. For context, I used like 3 different Lenovo laptops over the past few years and 2 of them ran into various issues. One of them was a ThinkPad that started having battery issues, i.e. a fully charged battery will drop to 4 to 7% charge very randomly. And that is just after a year, and the warranty only covers battery issues for a year. The next was an IdeaPad 5 (with Intel Ice Lake CPU), which had some display connectivity issue a couple of months after using it and I also experienced very quick battery drain (battery drains double digits and close to 15% in 30 mins of light usage). Conversely, the Acer laptop that I am using now don't really have hardware issues, but I think the software bloat is very bad. So much so that I ditched Windows to run Linux on it because by default, it keeps installing all the Acer bloatware back when there is a Windows update.

Dell also can, but its not the best value for money in terms of specs, although it has on site support. can call to home, office etc. its always Acer and Asus that has better value overall.

I am not too sure about Asus. Their laptops are usually not cheap, similar to any of their products, and you only get a fixed 2 year carry in warranty.

Oh yes!!!

I face this issue with my T14 amd version

It just randomly dropped from full charged to flat

And cheated by the warranty support because battery only one year despite my overall laptop being three years

May I know what you did in the end? Where to change battery?

this laptop very good leh, nothing major that can cause poor user experiences so far.
choose acer or asus wont go wrong imo. the 14th gen intel processors that had issues are mostly core i9, this is core ultra

if want onsite warranty, dell is the best.....be it home or office, they fix anythg swee swee chope chope on the spot...but the specs are not as value for money as compared to the past.

It just shows it is not an isolated case. I also noticed that Lenovo sells some sort of battery guarantee, which makes me even more suspicious of the battery that failed just outside a year.

In any case, for T14, you should be able to find replacement battery from third party. For my ThinkPad, I could not get a replacement, hence, I gave it away since it still works with an external power bank or connected to the mains.

Planning to get acer over lenovo, good choice? First time acer buyer here

 

[shock]

For my Acer swift 14 GO Intel 13th gen, the SSID has no heat sink. Killer wifi also weak connection.
Ownself added heat sink spread. And add another SSID. Wifi upgrade to Intel BE200 wifi 7. Wifi connection now full bar vs 1 bar or 2 bar on Acer default killer wifi. But warranty void though.

 

[JuveZzZ]

Your killer is wifi 6e or 7?
