Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)I bought this laptop several months ago, and it is by far the best computer I have ever owned. It is lightening fast, I purposely opened fourteen programs just to test the processor, and all of them performed at full capacity. It plays DVD and Bluray Discs with beautiful clarity. My computer included Word/Excel Starter 2010, which is perfect for school or work. Starter is not supposed to have full functionality but I have not found anything that I needed to do that was not included. The built in web-cam and microphone are very convenient and the software has some cool features to play around with. The card reader is also very convenient along with the abundant USB and HDMI ports. Windows 7 did take some getting used to, the documents and window setup are very different, although I had stuck with XP throughout the Vista era. If you are familiar with Vista (and like it) then you will find Windows 7 to have all the perks and none of the pitfalls. The keys are spaced wide which would be useful for someone with larger fingers, though I am not that someone so it took me a few days of typing to become familiar. The battery lasts FOREVER in "Balanced," mode. Right out of the box I watched two DVDs with two hours stand-by time in between. I have had it in the case on hibernate for two days at a time and it still opended and started right up. It is not sluggish on battery power, even when it is low.
There were only a couple things that could have been improved. The speakers, while sufficient, could be a little louder and as with most laptops, there isn't much to the woofers. I did notice that after the first few weeks, the tabs/windows in Internet Explorer started taking awhile to close. This only occured within IE8, not any other programs. I know that on every other computer I and people I know use, IE8 takes several minutes to load. On the Vaio, opens and loads immediately. The mouse is "skips a beat," every once in awhile, but not enough to effect the functionality of the computer or software.
Although this is a microsoft gripe, not sony, finding your filepaths may be a bit tricky at first. I had some trouble navigating the new OS but after a few weeks I had the hang of it for the most part.
Overall, this computer performs like one that should have cost triple what I paid. Sony computers have always been one of the best, and this is just another testament of their reputation.
