I picked it for its looks and it really is gorgeous!It is fast, the touch screen is an amazing feature so useful in so many situations, especially with Windows 8 but even when reading pdfs and browsing web pages.
Its very thin and light. I love the backlit keyboard.
Sony has included some nice software with it.
Battery lasts around 3 h on medium to heavy usage.
I love how tiny the charger is.
The screen is bright and colorful, whites are very white. Full HD looks nice.
However, it has visible slightly darker lines on the screen (it might be a faulty screen, or it might be just the type of display) which is very annoying.
The microphone catches every tap on the the track-pad, keyboard, the body of the laptop and when on skype the other party hears it as very loud scratching, so you definitely need an external mic. And here comes the other issue the laptop comes with a single jack for both mic and headphones and if you only plug a mic it doesnt recognize it'and keeps using the internal one, so you need a full headset (headphones with a mic) to make it work. That was my work-around at least.
The keyboard has little feedback and makes it hard to type.
Oh, and the web cam is low quality.
If you leave the screen on and come back to use it 20+ minutes later, you just get a black screen. You have to hold down the power button until it turns off and then power it back on.
If you surf too many tabs, eventually the system stops responding and you have to do the same thing again.
I've downloaded all of the updates from MS and Sony, but the problem persists!
Buyer beware.
I had high hopes for my first Sony computer, but this may be my last.
