  • Pros
    THE COLOUR!!!!
  • Cons
    The gaming

Wow, i can not believe you do not like the colours.
That is what actually drew me to this laptop, the boring blacks and blues i see on laptops is finally blasted away by brilliant orange and green! (the pink is a little pastel, but still nice for girly girls) I am quite excited to see some more colours coming in for laptops, how about some metallic silver, bronze and gold!

  • Pros
    blu ray
  • Cons
    horrible display

This laptop doesn't have a full HD screen in Canada. In fact all it has is the standard screen and compared to a MBP looks AWFUL. We have both in our household. My husband ordered this CB and I was thinking about one myself but, now I"m glad I didn't. Sony used to have fantastic displays but, this thing is DULL DULL DULL. Maybe if you can get it CTO then go for it but, we couldn't here and the standard config comes with a horrible looking screen here. Just shocked at how bad t his thing is. Rated 3 for the blu ray and decent configuration with the other specs but, what is the point of having blu ray with a terrible display.

  • Pros
    Display, Weight
  • Cons
    Glossy outside, sticky touch pad

Just got it and am returning. Performs well, great display.

Glossy finish leading to finger prints. 5 yr. old exterior finish, very unlike SONY. Touch pad does not respond at times. For $1200.00, not worth it.
