Sony VAIO VPC-EF34FX/BI 17.3-Inch Laptop (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased my VAIO for use in my photo studio. I considered Mac Pros but Fry's had priced it down to $699 plus a total of three years warranty. The offer was too good to pass up and the difference allowed me to max it up to 8 GB of RAM and get all the software I needed while still saving a bundle.
PROS
Excellent contrast and resolution on a 17.3" wide screen.
Lighter than most laptops its size.
Solid construction, superior to most PC-based models.
Quite thin for its size.
Four USB and one HDMI ports, among others.
Excellent graphical performance with photo-related applications.
Dual-core 2.4 GHz processor is perfect for business use.
Comfortable, straightforward spaced-layout keyboard. The Sony silicone membrane is a great addition (not included).
Few third-party apps to remove.
Windows 7 recovers pretty quickly (3-5 seconds) from sleep mode.
Decent battery performance for a 6-cell unit (max. 3 hrs.).
CONS
It's not as structurally solid as a Mac
The mirror-like screen finish can be bothersome sometimes. A matte screen can be purchased for $100-200.

Sony VAIO(R) VPCEC25FX/WI E Series 17.3" Notebook PC - Matte White Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I initially ordered a white VAIO, but returned it as only the inside was white.. The cover was silver, which I didn't want. In exchange, I got the same model in black and so far, so good. It's super fast which I'm enjoying but it does take some time getting used to as an upgrade from Windows XP. I didn't try the keyboard prior to my purchase which may have been a mistake as I have small hands and have some difficulty reaching the backspace and enter keys. It would be perfect for a man's hands for this very reason. THe on-line instructions are very detailed but I am not a techie and have had a pro set it up. My last VAIO still runs perfectly after 7 years and I hope this one will do the same.

Sony VAIO VPC-EE33FX/BJ 15.5-Inch Laptop (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this computer to replace a very good HP that just got too old. HP's computers weren't getting very good reviews so I thought I'd try a Sony. So far so good. I am disappointed with the sound quality. The speakers are small, underpowered, and sound like an old AM radio. But I bought this for business so no biggie.
I like the numeric keypad. The display is bright, the computer is quite fast, it's easy to set up, and I am glad that Sony didn't bog it down with a bunch of software that I don't need. Overall I am pleased with every aspect except the speakers. Time will tell how it performs but I have had good luck with Sony products.
As an update I'll say after a few weeks of use that I still enjoy the machine but the battery life is terrible. I'll have to invest in a larger battery as this one is really only 3 hours at best.
