I'm torn between 2 laptops, HP Pavilion 13-s128nr x360, and Lenovo Z51 with r7 360m graphics?

I repair my neighbors' HP equipment regularly, mostly failed hard drives. HP uses the cheapest. I take their castoffs when those people get sick of them.
I had a Lenovo G555 laptop, should have been numbered "666" because its video chip detached 3 times from heat. Now trying a replacement motherboard.
My Acer Aspire laptop from 2006 still works fine.
My Dell Inspiron from 2012 is very good, but the touchscreen is kinda pointless. I like mousing better.
My Dell Latitude from 1998 still works a bit slowly, needs a battery.
So you get my ideas about what brands to get.

Lenovo has serious stand behind their product problems. They bought IBM PC division and proceeded to drive the quality of the system into the ground. Their customer service is well below par. They even makes Dell customer service look good. Lenovo Makes it hard to surf thru their site without signing up to find trouble shooting tips. Sometimes it is impossible to find certain things without giving them your email addy. The last and final thing to remember about them is they are a Chinese Government own company. It is up to you if you want to trust them. Lenovo also got caught shipping system with Adware installed on them called Visual Discovery by Superfish. It was a giant security hole that they intentionally installed for corporate greed.

HP does not modify Windows as bad as the other manufacturers. They have excellent build quality. They might add a lot of bloat but they also makes it easy to get rid of it. Their customer support and technical service is far better then the others and they have excellent online support. I have dealt with many companies when it comes to this kind of support and HP stand out.

While the Lenovo has a better GPU and bigger screen, it is still a Lenovo and that alone should make you run as fast as possible from it. I would not go with the HP you have picked out because of the flip screen. They are just a problem waiting to happen.

For the price range you are in look at these.

This ASUS is really nice

This HP has want you want and is a Pavilion. Most of them come with a battery you can change.
