I have used this laptop and this one has ultimate performance, SONY is known for its premium quality and perfection.nIn this Vaio, SONY installed,nn1> Intel i5 2450M-> Windows rating 7.0n2> 4GB DDR-3 RAM-> Windows rating 7.2n3> AMD Radeon HD7650M-> Windows rating 6.7n4> 2GB DDR-3 Graphics memory-> Windows rating 6.7n5> 640GB 5400rpm HDD-> Windows rating 5.9nnActually when SONY launched this laptop the turbo boost function in Intel i5 was not enabled, due to this the performance of laptop was decreased about 10% then regular and windows rating was decreased to 6.9, but SONY found this problem and it's now solved.nnIf you want to know, Turbo boost is enabled in your processor? Download Intel turbo boost monitor Application and check.nnIf you own this product and your turbo boost is not enabled, don't worry just update your BIOS through Vaio update and this facility will be enabled in your laptopnnThe other thing about this is SONY says that installed RAM works on 1333 MHz but Actually its works on 1600 MHz which incredibly increase the performancennAnd last, the graphics in this Vaio is very high performance. I own SONY VAIO SVE15116ENB which has same graphics adapter but with 1GB memory. I have researched so many laptop but in this price range there is no other laptop with this high graphics configuration.nnAfter 6-7 Month of launch of this laptop HP introduce ProBook series laptop with same graphics configuration but performance is decreased about 40% then SONY (only about Graphics performance).nnIf your budget is little tight see SONY VAIO SVE15116EN, This one has same Processor, RAM and Graphics adapter. but difference is 500GB HDD, 1GB Graphics No keyboard back-light and Windows 7 Home Basic. The Performance of both laptop are same.nnLikes:-n1>Extreme high Performancen2>Premium lookn3>Beautiful keyboard back-lightn4>X-loud serves pure, clear and loud soundn5>Battery care functionn6>USB charging functionn7>Multi gesture touch pad same as applennDislikes:-n1>Scratches on glossy plastic around LCD screenn2>Battery life is 2:30h(Due to high performance)
likes-n1.backlit keyboard helps in night alot nd gives a gr8 look...nd keys are really soft.n2.bravia screen with gesture controls ....with this you can pause play or change the volume just by placing your hand in front of camera nd sliding your hand (u can learn how to do it from vaio gesture control nd it works in light only) which is nice because keyboard nly provides vol. chng func nd nt play, pause,next etc func. n3.graphic card is pretty nice ....i dont know much abt the graphic cards bt it can plays all the latest games with full resolution.n4. xloud speakers are really nice .n5. if u close d lid it does not hibernate or sleep ...it just closes down nd when u open up it instantly opens up to the last screen dat ws opened without any loss in battery.n6. usb 3.0 helps in fast charging.n7. 640 gb hard disk nd 4 gb ram. nnnnndislike-n1. intel core i5 (2nd gen) ....i wud hv lykd if dey cud put 3rd gen intead of 2nd gen fr sme extra money n2. 2 hrs of battery back up is really low.n3. trackpad sensitivity could hv been btr.n4. they do not actually provide any drivers or windows cd...u hv to make it frm vaio care(whch take 4 dvd's of 4.7 gb) nd dwnld drivers frm vaio official website....also 37gb of vaio software nd recovery data in c drive is a wastage of lot of space....shud hv jst given the few dvd's .nnni would overall recommend this laptop over dell and hp ...although it costs a little more but its worth the money spent....nd its screen is much btr dan hp.
You do feel special sitting in front of a Sony Vaio laptop and with the back (panel) of the laptop saying VAIO. Feels gr8.nTechnically also this laptop meets all you entertainment and other daily needs. 2nd gen i5 processor is the icing on the cake, though 3rd gen would have been better but actually there is not much difference between them. Its hardly a difference of 2-3 sec in the booting time. nThe 2GB AMD Radeon HD 7650 is sufficient for gaming and almost all the high end games are playable at a good frame-rate. If you are a regular gamer playing all high-end games and all its better to go for Alienware. Its worth the money you put(starts from 80000rs.) Otherwise this sony laptop is more than sufficient.nThe Back-lit keyboard is the highlight of this laptop i must say. When it glows in the dark it looks AWESOME.nMy previous laptop was a hp dv6 and it heats like a microwave! This laptop OTOH doesn't heat and the vent is conveniently placed at the left edge and not at the bottom so that all the heat generated(though less) easily escapes out. Overheating is one major problem of all the hp laptops and thats why i lost my previous laptop.nnPositives:n-V. Good processor speedn-Good graphic qualityn-Excellent back-lit keyboard and n-Good touchpad with multi-touch function and many other cool functionsn-High-speed USBn-V. good audio Quality and much loudern-Ext. warranty 2yrs only for 2500 rs.( In dell its around 7000 rs.)n-Looks and appearancen-Its cheaper than the new Dell special edition 15R with the same configuration.n-Its a SONY.nnNegatives:n-Poor battery backup (Its less than 2hrs on normal usage)n-Reasonably high cost of the accessories at the time of repair.nnNot really many negatives, battery back-up being the main drawback...nn-Lenovo has recently introduced Z380 which has the same config. but anyway its not a SONY.n-Samsung has a i7 processor wala laptop in the same range (some 1000 rs. more) but it looks horrible. It looks like a box of metal. n-After my previous experience with I won't suggest anyone to buy a HP laptop ever again. And their service is also very poor...
I purchased the SVE15117FNB last week(not thru Flipkart as I got a better price locally).nnOne might get a feeling that it is priced on a higher side... yes it is but then can you get the feel of a Merc riding in a Honda??nnFeature wise it's rich with 4Gb DDR3 RAM and 2Gb dedicated Radeon Graphics. Windows 7 HP is just right for your home use. It has a MS Office Starter 2010 pack with just Word and Excel. Comes with a 60 day trial version of Trend Micro Antivirus but Microsoft Security Essentials is sufficient. Download that. The back lit keyboard is a boon. The sound is decent. The White looks awesome and is good if you stay in a less polluted environment. Black is an all time favorite. The Pink is strictly for the ladies. All have a Matt finish.nnDrawbacksnn> Battery could have been better.n> Sony could have included the Restore Back-ups separately as some other manufacturers do(as it takes time to make the back-up). n> No e-Sata Port(although its not a requirement just as yet)nnnFour Stars only due to the first two drawbacks!!
