Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)This is my second vaio and I'm upgrading from a 3 year old CS. I was very happy with my CS but I traded it and went for the new i5 processor.
PROS:
Looks, fast speed, Processor i5-430 built in September 2010, no heat, light weight, travel friendly, 4gb expandable to 8gb.
CONS:
Gloss screen (although adjustable), Low volume in speakers, would need more care, less rough.
REMEDIES:
A wireless mouse, Screen privacy filter, Keyboard skin, External speakers.*KEYBOARD
It will take like two or three days to get use to it, since the keyboard is off center, also the keys are a bit more separated from each other than in former vaio models. The keypad is ok. I can't find a display-off button like in the old model.
*TRACKPAD/MOUSE
I see that a mouse is more convenient for every day use than the trackpad. The pad is useful for browsing pictures and allows for gesture commands like zoom in and zoom out. The pad can be configured though to do only basic point and click.
*BUILD/LOOKS
It looks good and professional but I can see that is going to be more fragile than the other. It's been only one week so I cannot say if the palm rests will last or not. It's thin and not heavy. It's lighter than the CS. Good thing the AC adapter is not bulky at all.*SCREEN
I find it a little bit more glossy, but it's ok when tilting the computer. It's good for movies and for presentations. Although needs a bit of setting adjustments at the control panel to display to your needs. Less contrast and less saturation and it will be ok.*SOFTWARE
Most of the prepackaged software is useless. Except for Media Gallery, just do not choose to install Sample Content, it will get annoying.
*EXTRAS
Blu ray is good, 3 ports of USB, eSATA, HDMI. I bought it for business but it will be a good computer for watching movies and series.
*BATTERY LIFE
From 2-3 hours.
*PROCESSOR SPEED
It has not let me down here, and I bought it for this main reason. This version has got Windows 7 64 bit, it starts very quickly and shuts off in seconds too. Overall processor performance for VPN, VMs and transfer files has been seamless, no problems and no heat.
