I totally agree with you. This is my second time I have face similar problem of same laptop in just three months. I ask everyone not to buy lenovo laptop. Thanks your valuable information

Bro open your laptop from the center..

My Lenovo 300e also broke the hood/plastic due to the over stiff hinge. I changed it but soon it started to crack again.... it's so frustrating.

Very helpful video. Just to add a bit more information - The screws holding the hinge to the screen are 2mm. I repaired my screen using M3x10mm, which did the job well, 8mm might just have been long enough, and saved filing them flat. You want screws with a wide, flat head, which are called ‘flanged button head’, in the UK at least. You’ll also want one longer screw, maybe 20mm, to pull the hinge back onto the screen while the epoxy sets (remove it before it’s fully glued in!). If you’re in Liberia or Myanmar, or any other country still stuck in the pre-metric era, that’s about 1/8” x 3/8”. Or maybe it’s one nineteenth of a cubit by some fraction of an ell, I dunno.

Same issue now i am facing

What if the doors are also locked and the keys are in the trunk 2003 E240

just had to try to fix one today. Not worth it. I patched it so that the screen would at least open and the laptop can be used and told the client to buy a new 'not Lenovo' laptop.

DEAR LENOVO, I WON'T MAKE THIS MISTAKE AGAIN!!!

Brand new notebook, with in 3 month, same issue. I did same thing!! Drill a holes. Just do not buy Lenove product any more.

Aj say 7 sal pehly bohat arsa guzara ha ruwaise main hum net ka kam krtay thay WiFi lgaty thy ghayati main bi jaty thay agay es k dalma islland ha

Exactly I faced it after 10 months from purchase and yeah it was because of the plastic body .

Thanks for the idea! i did it just like you. I also have a Lenovo ideapad. I guess that hinge fails everytime

Will this work on my 2012 c250 ?! PLEASE

It's not just annoying or frustrating, it just makes the laptops useless. The problem is this has been a systemic problem from many years abd they never fixed it, may it's their business model! Will never buy lenovo again!

This is exactly what is happening! OMG. I will never buy a Lenovo again! This is less than a year old.

This happened with me as well and at first i thought that it was my problem and repaired it and it costed 1250 INR and now also (after 2 months) am again facing this problem i will never purchase an laptop again from lenovo.

Anyone know what drillbit to use? And washers size?

Which laptops that you guys have been using till date doesn't have this hinge falling apart issue? Is this an unavoidable thing with all the laptop brands and are Macbook Airs a part of this family as well? This breaking of hinges is THE ONLY factor which is why I haven't bought a Laptop till date and kept upgrading my PC time to time but due to my work I need to pull the trigger now and I have to invest in a laptop and need to keep it for the next 5 years as I am not a frequent shopper. Which one do you suggest? Suggest only on the basis of build quality. Doesn't matter if it's a windows one or a macbook air which will be pretty sufficient for me

It happened now to my laptop :( lack off Lenovo

My just year old laptop has this problem I was dell costumer for years Never faced any issue i used dell for 7-8 years one laptop was 9 yr old But i am really shocked such a bad quality lenovo have.

Just had this happen with a 9 year old Thinkpad: it's not a new problem. Anyone who has hung a door, or put a lid on a wooden box could design a better way of doing laptop hinges without even intending to. When this happens I usually jury-rig a wooden frame so it's still useable, but really what you shoukd do is make the lifestyle changes to stop needing this whole form-factor. Laptops are vain and wasteful, and the upside of portability could be better delivered by making atx boxes ubiquitous into every room and booting them from usb.

lenovo no fungtion

I brought a Lenovo Idea Pad 5 on 15 th of April , The hinge didnt even last 3 months , I raised a ticket they repaired it , and now again after some months I am facing the issue right away , sadly I dont have warranty cover for it right now , dont know what to do.

Facing same issues on my lenovo yoga slim 6 from week 1

What a piece of crap. I will NEVER buy another Lenovo laptop!

Beautiful and concise presentation.. What's the name of the software you used for the presentation

i have this exact problem with the wife's and she hasnt even had it a year .

SAME ISSUE MY SUGGESTION NOT MY THIS LAPTOP ....I REPAIR SO MANY TIME HINGES BUT IS BROKEN BACK AGAIN AFTER TAKECARE OF REPAIR ..MANY TIME THIS IS WOST LAPTOP IF I COMPAIR OF MONEY WHAT I PAID OF THIS ...BUILD BODY THIS NOT GOOD WHAT THEY SHOW..DONT BUY IF YOU Rellay want to save your money or invest try to buy other

It's the second time a hinge broke on my laptop. Not to mention a non-responsive keyboard problem I had. My next laptop won't be Lenovo's, I'm not into purchasing new electronics every few years.

Gr8 help Ashar Cheers 👍👍

Wow Cheers LENOVO You guys are making your customers engineers world wide but such a big company not bothered to address this issue since so long I also have a lenovo laptop with this exact same issue. Extremely sad & disappointing DONT BUY LENOVO LAPTOPS

Worked!

Fix with jbweld. I've done hundreds of them. Got videos up.

I totally feel for everyone in this situation

On mine, the bolt at the end of the hinge rod slowly tighten when I opened and closed the laptop over time. The bolt as it slowly tightens will eventually bind the hinge. When customers forcefully try to over come the bounded hinge, the hinge bracket will dislodge from the plastic connector on the display. Only happened on the right side where I could se the slowly turn after I opened and closed the hinge after I disassembled the laptop for repair.

We have Lenovo Thinkpad's and Books at work and its been doing it to them. The first one they repaired fine. The second one they denied it was a manufactoring fault, I objected and argued so they came and repaired it. The engineer that came said yes its a known issue and yes they are finally awknowledging it. But then he's a 3rd party repair engineer as they outsource it. I now have another one that I know Lenovo will claim they won't repair I bet.

Same issue on many laptops not just Lenovo. Look at the dust in that fan, that does not help, that system would have been running hot causing the plastics to become brittle, see it over and over again.

Perfect 👏 I will never buy a Lenovo laptop again. Lenovo should pay damages for the poor quality of its laptops.

I'd already done an ugly repair (spam can and Araldite) on my HP laptop. Then the grahics card died so five months ago (Sept 2023) I replaced it with a Lenovo IdePad. The hinge and frame have already fallen apart (Feb 2024) and it's been returned to Lenovo for repair. I hope that they'll give me a refund then I'll try my luck with Acer laptops.

What an explanation Bro!

How could I buy this juicer machine from India?

*promo sm*

Avoid them laptops got the same problem there useless

I had the same problem and contacted the lenovo , they sent a individual to repair the laptop onsite as mentioned in warranty. and for free of cost totally . Had issue but service in my case is good

Thanks for the ideas, we have a Lenovo Ideapad 5 the hinge broke, this is pathetic engineering design by Lenovo!!

Very nice video

❤️

Beautiful place❤❤❤

What if I told you! that, the hinges from Lenovo are not the issue, but the way you open your laptop has destroy your 3 laptops. Open from the center, and not from the corners. If you open with your right hand, the left hinge will break the casing. If you open from left, the right hinge will break the frame.

Watching this with no audio because my Lenovo Yoga is rapidly breaking down after 2 years of use. The left hinge is broken and the 2 back screws are missing- i think all of this together is causing the laptop to completely deteriorate, as I'm applying to college and doing school online. All because they wanted to save a couple extra dollars.
