It’s L14, not T14. My mom has one for work and the bottom cover is cracked. It would be fine if she didn’t use a 6-year old HP (also fuck HP), which is somehow still in mint condition.
Yes, a HP beats an L series ThinkPad in durability (but this is only anecdotal evidence, I have no idea if this is widespread).

i dont treat my thinkpad lightly (photo as evidence), and it is in perfect condition after a year, throwing it in my school backpack daily, getting tossed around, getting hit and bumped countless times, on top of what it experienced before i got it (it was second hand from some business) i wouldn’t say its very fragile. sure, its no T series thinkpad, but L series seems to be overhated.

my friend had a pretty expensive/high-end hp laptop, got Hinge Problems after a few years of usage.

An elitebook, maybe. But not all HPs are made equal. Just like Lenovos.
