I have had the laptop for two weeks, and it works excellent. Powerful, fast and Windows 8 is really not that bad.The laptop is thin and light. The aluminum body is excellent looking and appears to be durable. The hinge is full length which I prefer for durability. Screen resolution is excellent. Touch screen works well, but you don't need to use it if you don't want. Battery life is about 4 plus hours on standard settings.
Pros:
1080P resolution or double the resolution of that of 720P on a 16:9 display.
Touch screen is great on Win 8; firmware has been updated. No I know Win 8 is not so great but it's a start.
Sony Vegas Studio, Imagination Studio Bundled software
Typing is fast. I have never typed so fast on a computer; the keyboard is great.
The viewing angels are average and it's easy to install (a must have) SSD.
It's very light. The battery life lasts about 4.5 hours which is fine for me.
I don't need the optical drive so I replace it with a 9.5mm 2.5" SATA 2nd HDD Hard Driver Caddy in place for the DVD Optical Bay so I have 1 HDD, 1 SSD, and 1 MSSD.

Cons:
The fan is loud and it really doesn't shoot out any really hot exhaust . The fan comes on max settings too quickly. I've had computers that have had double the heat temperature come from a vent and there seems no way that this computer should get to 70 degrees Centigrade.
There is an easy fix to this though. And that's for all T-series laptops.
It's right here but it's spoken in German:
Simply you need to download the latest version of fan speed control:
Right now the latest version is .14.4.6..
Download that and put it on the recommended settings on the manual. This machine has no reason not to have a bios update doing the same process.
Seriously, I've had multiple gaming computers like the Asus G53 series, The Dell XPS 16 series, etc. and they put out much higher temperatures of fan exhaust than this one by far. Maybe it gets hot because of the touchscreen running both the processor and the HD 4000 integrated graphics but don't ruin your cpu/motherboard by putting the max fan speed too low.
Once you downloaded it and put it at the Sony E series default (that's good enough) you need to set it up to automatically start up every time you turn the on button on.
Read that and you'll be all set.
Update:
The fan really does get loud. I was pulling 80 degrees centigrade while I was just using internet explorer with multiple tabs open. There is no IPS screen like the S series. I rarely use the touch screen and it does not look good in sunlight so I'm switching to an S series with IPS screen. IPS screens you can view from all angels.when i catch laptop from right side it is power off
very bad laptop
i hate it and iam very angry
