The components of a typical laptop can contain mercury, lead, chromium and other heavy metals that provide power and preserve functionality (see Reference 6). If these toxins end up in a landfill, instead of a recycling center, they could contaminate groundwater, surface water or the soil around the landfill.
The reason why most of it is made in China is due to lower per unit costs, better deliveries and lead time, and better ability to replicate the exactly same requirements consistently. Salaries in China are NOT lower than salaries in neighbor Asian and Latin American countries (another common misconception.
The vast majority of laptops on the market (94% in 2011) are manufactured by a small handful of Taiwan-based original design manufacturers (ODM), although their production bases are located mostly in mainland China.

All of the major brands are terrible, but they're all terrible in different ways.

- Acer: Basically a Taiwanese Toshiba.

- Asus is an odd one.
HP is better than Lenovo if you are looking for a gaming laptop and your budget allows. HP also does well when in the quality and durability department. Lenovo, on the other hand, offers a wider range of smaller convertible laptops making them the clear winner if portability is important to you.
It currently assembles the majority of Apple's iPhones in its Shenzen, China, location, although Foxconn maintains factories in countries across the world, including Thailand, Malaysia, the Czech Republic, South Korea, Singapore, and the Philippines.
Acer Inc. (/ˈe?s?r/ AY-s?r; Chinese: ????????; pinyin: Hóngqí Gǔfèn Yǒuxiàn Gōngsī, lit. Hongqi Corporation Ltd.) is a Taiwanese multinational hardware and electronics corporation specializing in advanced electronics technology, headquartered in Xizhi, New Taipei City.
The build quality of neither the Dell or HP laptops are not too shabby either. But on comparison, Lenovo wins this round. Overall we feel that the winners of this round are Vostro and Inspiron laptops from Dell. They've been here for a long time, and they've perfected the art of building excellent budget laptops.
If the HP here is the abbreviation of Hewlett-Packard, then the answer is NO. Hewlett-Packard, HP, is a US company headquartered at Palo Alto, California, USA. It is and kind of isn't a Chinese company.
HP laptops are shipping from China, CTO desktops are shipping from Mexico.
No, Asus is not a Chinese company. Asus is officially known as AsusTek Computer Inc., and it is a Taiwanese multi-national tech brand.
