Hinge Failure
Are you kidding me? I bought the UX303LN in September, which is about 5 months ago, and I noticed the hinge was broken and bent last night. I can't close the lid now, because I'm afraid forcing it to close will damage the display. It also makes cracking sound. All I have done to 'damage' my laptop is closing my laptop when I move it around or go to bed. I've never dropped it and always use the Amazon 13.3 inch laptop cover, which is very soft and protective, when I put my laptop in my bag. I'm satisfied with the performance, but not with the battery life, and most importantly, the durability.
I now have to go through ASUS warranty claim and wait days after days until they fix and send it back to me.
