What are the ASUS´s TUF gaming A16 fatal flaws?

What are the ASUS´s TUF gaming A16 fatal flaws?

TLDR:

  1. My Lenovo loq died within 9 months of usage and now I'm dealing with warranty stuff (It's apparently a well known issue with that model)
  2. I researched a lot before buying that laptop but the one thing I didn't look into was the fatal flaws it had, for that I'm deeply sad and lowkey want to rip the skin off my face every time I think of it
  3. The ASUS TUF gaming A16 (2025) seems like a good option, it's a bit of an upgrade and has a similar appearance to my older laptop (My beloved I love and hate her in equal parts)
  4. What are the most common fatal flaws of the ASUS TUF gaming A16 (2025),

-how's the build quality?

-what long term expectations should I have?

-I know the older model has hinge issues but the 2025 model doesn't seem like that may be the case, but just in case

-How bad are the high temps complaints, is there a fix for that?

-Any issues with the motherboard or sudden death?

  1. extra info:

-I'm buying overseas from Spain so it is a bit of a risky move that´s why I´m so concerned

-what I had and what I want:
