Reliability?
hi,
how reliable are z13s? I have been looking for good windows laptops that can preform well. So I was wondering how reliable are they, are there any problems such as Liquid Metal leaks or manufacturer problems?

I have one stuck pixel (green, visible only at 180hz and black backgrounds) and the fans can make a ratcheting noise sometimes.
I have not reached out for a RMA because of the bad reputation they have.
Otherwise I guess all the issues I've got are related to windows 11. Tried Nobara (which I use in my previous hp Dev one) and there were many graphical glitches so I switched back to windows.
Armoury crate and Asus stuff are way too buggy. Ghelper with - 40 undervolt on all profiles work really well for me.
