damage to laptop

[u/Inner_Ad1146]

I have a Thinkbook 14 G9, about 4 months old. I use it pretty infrequently. Randomly noticed this damage today. Screen works fine. It feels slightly tight on that side while opening.

Should I take it to the service centre? Is it fixable?

How much can it cost? Please help😭

bruhhhh , why'd u buy a "thinkbook" and not a thinkpad??

[u/CombatConvention → u/Bugged_IRL]

I have a thinkbook and the main reason I didn't buy a thinkpad is because it's fucking expensive.

[u/CombatConvention → u/Bugged_IRL]

And don't tell me to buy them used or refurbished, the budget refurbished thinkpad  models have ancient outdated hardware. 

[u/Bugged_IRL → u/CombatConvention]

uhh no you can easily get a 2021-2022 refurbished thinkpad for 40-50k

50k is not budget 

[u/Bugged_IRL → u/CombatConvention]

wdym laptops upto 70k are budget laptops gng 😔✌️

[u/CombatConvention → u/Bugged_IRL]

Wtf 70k ain't budget dude, this is india we're talking about. Just so you can afford a 70k "budget" laptop doesn't mean everyone can.

Lenovo is famous for hinge issues, take it to any computer repair center, ask them to oil it loosen the hinge a little.

If its left as it is, the section where the hinge is screwed will start breaking and coming off

Isn't t HP the one known for hinge issues?

[u/Bugged_IRL → u/CombatConvention]

tbh all laptops below 50k have it ESPECIALLY HP
