I own an Empriva M540N. My Laptop hasn’t bugged down since it was repaired by Neo 1 1/2 yr ago. I must agree nasa pagha handle din ng tao minsan kung bakit sirain yun laptop but not to discredit Neo may mga laptops din kasi talaga silang mejo may problema. In my case, 2 months after I purchased my laptop nagkakaron ng blue screen error then I had it repaired by Neo after nun ok na yun nga lang same with every one here who had their laptop repaired, puro gasgas yun laptop ko ng binalik ng Neo. Just this afternoon, I went to Neo Megamall asking kung magkano optical drive (DVD RW) since hindi na nagbabasa yun sa kin kahit sobrang bihira ko lang gamitin yun. I laughed hard nun sinabi sa kin ng Neo Rep nila sa Mega na P7,950 yun. Grabe mas mahal pa kesa sa DVD RW ng Acer, HP, Toshiba & Asus. Sa Acer P4,000+ lang. So do I recommend buying Neo Laptops? No. It may not worth the hassle lalo na kung work laptop yan =)

Well, just like anneZ said, nasa gumagamit talaga ang itatagal ng life ng isang laptop or any other devices. Kaya if you’re planning on buying a Neo laptop and you’re not a typical techy kind of a person, i suggest that leave Neo brands last on the list. If may pera ka naman, invest ka na lang sa mejo mahal nga, pero hassle free naman na brands. If budget is the problem, Neo nga is the right option, pero, dapat pag aralan mo din gamitin ng TAMA, just Google it. As for me, i could say that Neo laptop is one of the good laptops around. Mine is 3 ½ years old now, pero still ginagamit ko pa din sya for work as a web developer. Wala me naging major problem sa kanya regarding sa hardware failure, dati. Never din nya nabisita ang mga ohh soo reliable na mga tech support ng Neo..
So far, 4 problems pa lang ang meron sa laptop ko now:
1. Kupas na kulay, mejo nakakahiya na siya dalhin sa mga cafe, vintage na daw or natapunan ng coffee. HEHE!
2. Battery, now totally drained na battery nya. Di na pwede pag wala outlet.
3. CD/DVD drive, mejo tsambahan na lang if ma read nya mga CD or DVD specially yung mga data or installers CD.
4. Built in camera, hirap humanap ng drivers for Vista.
Yan pa lang ang mga problems na madalas ko ma encounter sa loob ng 3 ½ years, as of now. I always use my laptop everyday around 6 hrs min and 12 hrs max. My brother bought this around 40k on a 12 months installment.. So again, right usage of your laptop will prolong it’s life, kahit Mac, Viao, Alienware or Neo pa yan, if di tama ang pag gamit, di tlaga tatagal.. Thanks for reading..
