I recently bought a storm gray color Thinkpad T14 GEN 2 device. After some research i found out that the hinge design on the T14s gen 2 models are weaker and tend to break.

What is the reason for this to happen? Is it the hinges getting tighter overtime due to lack of lubrication...

I already bought the device. My device is already creating a small screeching noice when opening the lid. And now I'm thinking what should do.

What are the solutions to stop this noise.

Is there ways to prevent this hinge issue from happening.
