I have a Chuwi laptop, a Corebook X with an i5 11th gen. After 1 year of regular use I experienced battery bloating, another two years and battery bloating again and hinge problems. I wish they'd improve by having battery management software baked into their firmware and better hinges. My other laptop, a lenovo with an i5 12th gen bought just two monyhs after the chuwi while of plastic build (externals get brittle over time) has never had hinge problems or battery problems.
