Not buying anything Lenovo made ever again. T14 G1 was the worst computer I've ever had the displeasure of using. Extremely spotty USB C connection, throttling to 0.2 Ghz for no reason with no fix, and just terribly slow all around. Shame since I loved the T450s dearly.

Lenovo makes many laptops; some are good, some are bad.

This applies to pretty much ever manufacturer. Worked in a computer store for many years, and every manufacturer had some models with high return rates, but also models with low/normal return rates.

Saying "I will never buy $x because I had a bad experience with a bad model" is almost always a mistake IMHO.

What does matter is how they deal with the bad models. Some brands were definitely a lot better than others, and I generally advised customers based on that.
