Sony VAIO E Series SVE14112FXW 14-Inch Laptop (Seafoam White)

Granted you could probably get a better deal out there for another laptop form another brand with better specs. Trust me ive seen plenty. Yet None of those in this price range compare to the styling on this one. the wife loves the VAIO line, she comes form a VAio N which has served her well for the past 3 1/2 years. It took various drops and even one lcd change, but never failed her. So obviously she wanted another Vaio. This computer is a perfect size, 14" is a sweet spot for laptop screens. She is a fan of 15 inchers yet due to her carrying it around on our family trips and sometimes to work i wanted something lighter. This laptop is light enough to carry all day, and battery life is good, not great, but very good. We get around 5 to 5 and a half hours on it, surfing and watching youtube videos. Trackpad is good, not like my MBP, but very good for a pc. i3 processor is fast enough for daily use. I doubt most people need more. 6gb ram is great no need to upgrade for a long time. Keyboard is good and backlight is a plus. So far we are very pleased and like i said you might get a better deal specwise, but build quality at this price range you can't really beat and styling is an added extra. One thing you should know there is a bit of flex on the trackpad area but nothing we cant live with. Same trackpad on my work Vaio S13P does not have this but then again that laptop costs almost 3 times as much.

Computer is very-light and the perfect size at 14". The back-lite keyboard is a nice feature, but it does not seem to distract or enhance much. I thought perhaps if you got the white version that might be problem, but I got black, so it's just a really cool cosmetic feature. Bootup time is really fast and impressive. Computer does not make any weird "processing" sounds. The speakers are on top (not the bottom), so there is no distortion of sound. The usb drives are all up front, so it would be nicer to have those in the back. It would also be nice to have a 10-key pad, but you really have to go up to a 15.6" for those, and those really are too big for me. Wish it had a micro sd slot instead of a pro duo slot, but it is a Sony. Processor and graphics are pretty good but not great. But not at all bad, and I upgraded from netbook, so I am really noticing and benefiting from the speed difference. Overall, I would recommend this computer. I think between a PC, 15.6", 13", and those netbooks, this size really gives you the best of everything that you are looking for including: a DVD drive, 6GB RAM (that's a lot), and a hard drive with well over 500 GB of storage (640GB to be exact), good graphics, i3 processor (of course i5 and i7 are better - but most people wouldn't even need that and many computers out of box come with much worse), without being too big or heavy. This is a really great value and design. Buy it with your Amazon credit card like I did and you save 3% on top of that!! Highly recommend this.

a pretty sweet laptop. my first sony vaio, and after just a few weeks of using it, i dont think i can go back to anything else. i love the size, the white color, the keyboard, etc etc. basically, this is a perfect laptop for me. im not a big tech guy, so i may just be a n00b, but this laptop is perfect. nice and fast for recording music and things like that.the ONLY bad thing i can say about this laptop is when you take it out of the box, you have about a BIJILLION updates to do, and on a slow internet connection, it takes forever! actually, while doing all of the updates and all that jazz, i got the "BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH" on it. i dunno why, but i just powered it off and turned it back on and haven't had a problem with it since!i would strongly recommend this laptop!UPDATE!!!!!!!!!:so after awhile of using this laptop, it is still pretty good. the only things i have a problem with it is the i3 processor and the graphics 3000 hd card. complete crap. i cant even play call of duty on this thing or run my midi controller while recording music or anything tooo heavy on the processor. like i said earlier, i may just be a n00b, but i cant seem to do the things that other poeple can do on their new laptops.

This computer is pretty awesome. It came in the mail within 2 days even though I chose standard shipping and when I did price comparisons for best buy and Walmart, amazon was cheaper and you got more gb. I bought this lap top to use for online college because my Mac format was just not always easily converted for things such as PowerPoint and I had trouble opening my ebooks for classes. This Sony like many other windows processor computers may not be as fast as my MacBook Pro but it isn't bad. It's the closest Sony model that didn't make the change to terrible and everything about it seems to work perfect for me! I would recommend it to anyone looking for a vaio in this price range!

I received this laptop a couple days later than was posted. But so far I'm pretty happy with it. Very good webcam, the keys light up when you type which is very helpful. I had never owned a 14 in before and thought that it would be too small but it's just right. It doesn't have a number pad to the right, so that's taking some getting used to. But it's very light weight and hasn't overheated. The only issue that I have with it, is that you have to push the keypad a little harder than on other laptops to get it to click. It's only been a few days, but so far I am satisfied with it. Will update in a few months if things change.
