I have an old 2014 era Dell Latitude E something and the laptop itself is alright if a little slow running no but the battery refuses to charge and you buy a new charger and it works for a little bit and then still refuse to charge again. A new battery didnt help either. So it's always tethered to the wall, which is pretty annoying.
I had an asus rog laptop where after years of daily use the power port had gotten detached from the motherboard at least for one of the connections
Disassembled it and soldered it back in place and got a few more years out of it
