Great notebook overall. The specs on the amazon page aren't really clear but do check them out.The hd display is great, at first everything seems small but you get used to it and its neat. The backlit keyboard as well is good sized and comfortable as well as the touchpad.
There's a lot of sony software pre-installed, I'm not a fan of this but it happens and some of it I think isn't bad. The only huge CON i find is that you're stuck with windows 8. There's no support from sony (as to drivers) to change to w7 if you have it and IMHO windows 8 eats up some resources and is a pain in the butt. I lost a day trying to switch to w7 with no success because of the way the HD is configured. I guess its up to each one to get used to it.
Anyway performance is good, the fan is super quiet but if you start gaming it does rev up. However I'd say I've had no heating issues, no noise problems and I'm a happy overall with the notebook.
Pros: Great performance, backlit keyboard, HD display really!, usb3.0 ports, some sony software isn't bad. Very thin, lightweight, quiet, smooth and aesthetic, metal-alloy cover.
Cons: VGA output (no kidding), windows 8, and the rest of the pre-installed software.
Other: Sound could be better, but its not bad at all. Haven't really tested battery life sorry about that.
So I think its very well equiped, gaming capable (possible nvidia gt 640m overclocking i read) notebook. (but i really dont like windows 8)
UPDATE:
Getting used to windows8 now, battery life is pretty decent 4+hrs the Stamina/speed button can be useful so can the other sony quick access keys.
I recommend it to everyone who wants a fast computer.
