Decent performance but shocking build quality

So, here I am, about to give you some advice. Avoid buying the cheap Life digital laptops. I have had a terrible experience with mine since the one year warranty on the laptop with a two year contract (well done Vodacom) ended. The Vodacom contract expires next year but the laptop is almost unusable. My wife's is headed in the same direction with the plastic breaking in the exact same place. You cannot close the lid of the laptop.

Contact life digital they said, I did, and..... they haven't gotten back to me after I forwarded the information they asked for. This included photos and "part numbers". And not a peep since, that was Monday.

They were decent laptop, but once the hinges started seizing, they became terrible. I am so disappointed. This is my first laptop that has not even made the two year mark. Very disappointed and almost shocked that a company like Vodacom would sell "junk" like this. This was piated on Facebook
