I do not disagree regarding the XPS. However I've had similar experiences with MBP. I've owned two now, and both had the charger fray/fall apart and the hinges for the display become weak/flimsy. I've experienced every issue you mention with the MBP.

Thinkpads look like a brick, but that is because they are. My X220 has lasted 6-7 years and barely shows it. I've spilled coffee on it, dropped it, and it just keeps on going fine.
