    Hi, so I have a 3.5 year old Lenovo Ideapad 5 15ARE05 which is 6 months out of warranty. A few days ago the right side hinge broke so the laptop won't close now and the bevel has started to come away from the screen. I've since read that this is a pretty common problem with these models.

    As I'm out of warranty I'm guessing Lenovo won't take it back fro repair, so can anyone recommend a repair place in Dublin that would fix the hinge? Please see pic attached.

    Tia.

    How about some DIY project? Done few replacements on HP/Dell by getting spares from ebay or alike - not so complicated.

    Speed up on this as if plastic laptop frame start disintegrating on you it will be more problems...

    If you're tech averse OP Back from the future George's street but first get a quote of him!!!!!

    If you're a brave enough Lenovo owner like me ( who once completely opened my ideapad z500 motherboard to replace memory ) then YouTube is your friend.

    I really shouldn't risk it myself as I'd probably end up butchering it 😐

    Then there's a Chinese owned tech shop in Capel Street light blue store frontage. Heard positive things about him. Again get a quote.
