I bought a Lenovo Y50-70 recently on Newegg for 860$, it's the best cheap gaming laptop I could find. However, while it was shipping, I researched online about it, and apparently within 2-6 months the hinges are supposed to break and it snaps in half.
The laptop came in yesterday, and the first thing I realized when I opened it is that the screen bends a bit while you open it. An ordinary laptop opens perfectly straight, but I feel like the Lenovo Y50 is really fragile and if I open it too hard it can snap. The hinges are pretty minimalistic -- its just two tiny things that hold up the screen, rather than the entire edge of the laptop holding up the screen.
It came with no warranty (I think) and a 30-day return policy. Should I keep it? Should I return it before it breaks? It took me a very long time to save up that much money, I really don't want it to go to waste in two months. Maybe I should try gaming on it before I make a decision?
