Information about Warranty

This is a summary overview where you can quickly find information. The Warranty Conditions, which are also part of the General Terms and Conditions, always prevail and can be read here. Do you want to apply for warranty? Then do so via this page.

Warranty period

The defualt and additional warranty.

Although we do our absolute best every day, it can happen that a product becomes defective and/or no longer functions properly. At LaptopwithLinux you will enjoy a 2 year warranty on your purchase by default, with the exception of the battery, on which you will receive 1 year warranty. For an additional fee the warranty period can be extended to 3 years with free pickup and return (pickup and return only available for EU countries).

The Intel NUC (Linux Mini) has a 3 year warranty by default. For an additional charge, you can purchase a 4-year warranty.

The warranty period starts from the date of the invoice.

A functioning Linux OS

LaptopwithLinux guarantees that your chosen Linux OS will work with the product for at least the lifetime of the chosen OS version.

LaptopwithLinux guarantees that the chosen Linux OS will work with the product for at least the lifetime of the chosen OS version (usually up to 5 years from release).

For example:

You have the product for three years with Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. Ubuntu gets an update which means the sound no longer works on your product. We will then provide a solution (fix/workaround/patch).

Please note!

Shipping costs

Shipping costs that you as a customer make to send your product to us for warranty are at your own expense. We LaptopwithLinux – Comexr B.V. do not refund these costs!

If your warranty request meets the warranty conditions, we will cover the shipping costs for returning the product back to you (the customer).

Self repair and hardware upgrade

Repair or assemble the product yourself or by a third party.

The warranty of your Linux laptop and/or Linux Mini will not expire if you upgrade or assemble the device yourself*. Please note that some components cannot be upgraded. Think mainly of the processor and video card/chip.

We would like to draw your attention to the fact that replacing or upgrading hardware is not child’s play. Damage can quickly occur, think for example of the careless opening/dismantling of laptops and computers.

Would you rather have a hardware upgrade carried out by our professionals? No problem! Please contact customer service for the possibilities.

*In the event of a claim under any form of warranty, the general terms and conditions and additional warranty conditions apply. The warranty will be invalid when damage/defects caused by yourself or a third party.

Dead-pixel warranty

30 days dead-pixel warranty

Every laptop we sell comes with a 30-day warranty on dead pixels by default. This dead-pixel warranty start from the day of delivery by the delivery service. If you have a dead pixel on your notebook’s display, we will replace the display free of charge*. If there are four or more dead pixels, we will replace the screen under normal warranty*.

In the event of any warranty claim, the terms and conditions and additional warranty terms and conditions will apply.

*Depends on the chosen warranty option. Thirty days dead pixels warranty as standard.

You can submit a warranty application using the warranty form. You can find this form on this page: https://laptopwithlinux.com/warranty-form/

You will need the serial number of the laptop. This can be found on the bottom of the laptop. If it is not visible, please ask us for the serial number of your laptop.

After you have submitted your warranty application, you can send the product to us. Use the original packaging if it still offers adequate protection, or use new packaging.

IMPORTANT Please note! You are shipping the product, so you are responsible for safe transportation. Defects or damage occurring during shipment are excluded from warranty. Consumers outside of the European Union (EU) must ship the product for warranty with shipping reason “Return” or “Repair” to avoid VAT, import taxes and/or clearance charges when shipping to the Netherlands. If VAT, import duties and/or clearance charges are passed on to Comexr B.V., Comexr B.V. has the option to charge a handling fee of €100 (EUR) in addition to be able to charge these VAT, import duties and/or clearing charges back on you.

Warranty handling

How we handle warranty requests and it’s processing time.

It is always frustrating when something does not work or breaks down. That is why we strive for a super-fast warranty service. We can do most repairs or replacements ourselves, but in exceptional cases the laptop has to be sent to a Clevo service centre for repair. If this happens, we will inform you about it, but you should take into account a longer processing time for the repair.

When we have received your product for warranty, you will receive a confirmation by email. In most cases we can start processing your warranty request the same day. If it takes longer than 5 business days we will give you an expected duration in advance.
