I've been looking for a new laptop and have usually opted for Toshiba models I've had several in the past and their reliability have been excellent, my last one has lasted six years. I've come across two systems that peak my interest and I'm having difficulty choosing.
One of the laptops is a Lenovo and since I have had no experience with Lenovo's consumer line I would first like to ask what are they like in terms of reliability? Will it be expected to last several years of usage?
The other laptop is of course a Toshiba however I'm unsure about it because people are complaining that the audio quality is awful. I will post specs and links to the two laptops I have considered below.
What I'm generally looking for is a system with long term reliability, good battery life (around 4-5 hours), good audio qulaity, and decent speed (system speed).
