(More customer reviews)I have been using this as my primary laptop for about two weeks now and I am very pleased.
Without going into detail about the technical specifications, suffice it to say the graphics are excellent, the display is sharp, the computer is quite fast.
I was a little apprehensive about the size, it is longer than most..almost 15 inches. But it is not heavy.
One bad point is that the built in wifi is the Intel 5100 A/G/N. If you are hoping that this means it will connect at N speeds to your N router..forget it. This card is N in name only and will connect at G speeds max. While a new driver, released after I bought the computer, has made the wifi connection more stable (at work, it would disconnect every 10 minutes or so) it does not make it faster. No combination of adapter or router settings is going to make this connect faster. 54Mbs is the best you will get. I am annoyed at this since I have a linksys router and access point at home. Both N. Looks like I am going to have to buy a USB or expresscard adapter to get N speed. Which raises another small point; no PCMCIA card slot. Expresscard only.
The power on button is on the end of the hinge and glows orange and slowly blinks when the computer is off. Looks cool, but definitely don't leave it in the bedroom if you are the "oh my god what the hell is that!" in the middle of the night sort

Sony VAIO VGN-NW275F/B 15.5-Inch Widescreen (Black) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)i bought this laptop at fry's during a 1 day sale for 699.99 and is normally an [...] laptop. the specs are solid across the board with windows seven pre-installed and works perfectly for a laptop, the spacing of the keys are very nicely placed so that you won't trip over typing each letter as well as virtually a finger print free plastic casing it comes in unlike an hp where it's a high gloss, metallic finish and will get tons of fingerprints. the speed is 2.20 ghz and an intel core 2 duo processor so you are getting very decent to above average speed (3/5 stars) for the money depending what you are using it for. it comes with a blu-ray play which i personally i wasn't too concerned about but unless again, you are using this more so for something other then a dependable and fast laptop and already have a ton of blu-rays. the 320 gb hd is more then enough memory for school projects and papers so you won't have a problem if you are using it for non computer graphical oriented classes for the software it needs if graphics design is your major. and lastly the video card is worth the investment, the ati 4700 mobility card is a 2009 issue and with it's dedicated 512 mb memory you won't have to worry about playing 95 percent of most games in the last year or games upcoming. sony offers a service like a lo-jack for laptops where for 15 dollars you will get a lifetime service for tracking your stolen or lost laptop so you can't go wrong with that just peel the tracking sticker off and put it on the bottom of your laptop and use the same number to go to [...] and you will have lifetime service.
the only gripes i really have which i'm knit picking is that it comes with a blu-ray but not a true 1080p it is 1366 x 768 so if you must have a laptop that plays blu-rays but not an absolute 1080p then this laptop won't have it but on a 15.5 inch screen it won't matter that much this feature is the last thing you should be concerned about as an educated consumer. the battery life says 4 hours but i have my brightness on high so i get about 2.45 to 3 hours, i upgraded to a 4400 mah, 11.1 volt battery so i will have about 6.
as a multi-functional school/multimedia/gaming laptop this gets a 10/10 if you pay less then retail, and an 8.5/10 if you pay full retail price only because if you do your research and find a spec on another laptop to your liking for the price like an led backlight display instead of the tft screen this comes with it would only be more of a minute detail, then you might go for that instead but either way you can't go wrong with any of the specs here. when you invest hard earned cash on something you want the best bang for your buck and invest not to upgrade so get a very worth while laptop because like all electronic devices most of the upgrades depending the quality you get won't matter they are more selling points.

(More customer reviews)I purchased this notebook from Fry's on 9.25.09. I wanted a notebook with Blu-Ray as I have a player at home and over 100 discs. I wanted to be able to watch then on a notebook when I travel rather than dvd. I also wanted a gaming laptop to play some games on mainly Diablo 3 when it is released. The Blu-Ray playback is great and it looks good, obviously it's best when viewed on a huge hdtv, the smaller the screen size the less amazing it looks. The ATI graphics card is good not great I am able to run Bioshock at max settings but most other games are best at medium settings. The screen is big and perfect for movies as it's 16x9 and gaming as well. It's plenty fast and I am only using Vista Premium 64 as my Windows 7 will be shipped to me in the next few days according to Sony. Only complaints are price, you are paying for name brand so you may not get as much as the competition in terms of specs, but this is one sexy looking computer. The major problem for most would be the audio, it's just too damn low. Since I primarily use it with headphones it's fine as it's excellent when you use headphones. If you want to use it without I suggest getting an external speaker system to solve that problem. To sum it up if you are looking for a laptop with a big screen, Blu-Ray playback and able to play the occasional pc game this is definitely one laptop to consider.

(More customer reviews)This laptop feels every bit of the 6.7lbs that Sony states that it weighs. However, it is a nice alternative to sitting at a desk or even watching the occassional Blu-Ray movie. The screen is nice and crisp, but blacks tend to look more like a charcoal color. The keyboard is great and touchpad has a good feel. The mouse buttons are a bit stiff and are somewhat loud compared to other Vaio laptops I've owned. If you're planning to take it on the road, be sure to purchase the extended life battery. The standard battery shipped with the FW lasts a little under 2hrs under normal operation. Overall a good laptop, but not exactly 'portable'.

Sony VAIO VGN-FW510F/B 16.4-Inch Black Laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Pros:
Good specs for a mid-grade notebook
Comforable & quiet keyboard
Upward facing speakers
HDMI output
Aesthetically pleasing
Cons:
LCD is dark even at full brightness
Fan comes on intermitently every 4-5 mins
Heavy (6.9 pounds)
Low battery life (~2.5hrs on light usage)
Review:
I bought this at Bestbuy the weekend of Black Friday ($649.99). It's rare to find a mid-grade notebook that has dedicated graphics, 4GB RAM, 500GB HDD, GigE & 802.11n connectivity, and a 1600x900 display. Even at MSRP, the specs are pretty good for the price. The keyboard is very quiet and comfortable to type on. The touchpad is a decent size but the 2 buttons are hard to click (I generally use the touchpad tap gestures). The max volume on the speakers are pretty good and they actually face up. Many lower end notebooks have them facing down going away from your ear and also gets muffled if you put it on your bed. The HDMI is great for connecting to an external display. Unfortunately, the integrated glossy 1600x900 xbrite-eco display looks pretty bad. Even on max brightness, the LCD is not very bright. The viewing angles are bad. Normal sized text is hard to read unless you're looking at the LCD straight-on. This is my first experience with extended usage on a Sony xbrite-eco display and I'm a bit disappointed. I haven't used a TN-panel in 3 years, so I am a bit spoiled on monitors. I'm also very conscious of computer noise. The fan comes on and off frequently and cannot be controlled by 3rd party software (This is true of all Sony Vaios). I checked this out using HWMonitor. The PC idles around 50C. When the CPU gets stressed to 59C, the fan starts spinning and cooling the CPU down until 51C, then stops. This is a regular pattern that occurs maybe every 4-5 mins, but on the other hand, many notebook cooling systems are the same way. The good thing is this never becomes one of those lap-scorchers. This thing is quite heavy at 6.9 pounds. The big LCD and dedicated graphics add weight and also trim down the 4400mAH battery's life. I get 2.5hrs on light usage. I think this could have used a bigger battery, but I think Sony didn't want to have to market a 7 pound+ computer. There is still pre-installed garbage software that you'll want to uninstall but it's not as bad as it used to be. This is currently my main computer and I usually have it "docked" to my external S-IPS Dell monitor, external keyboard/mouse, and constantly charged, so I don't feel the effect of the dull LCD, weight, or battery life.
Overall, I still really like the computer. To get similar specs elsewhere, you'd have to spend $1000+. It looks very sleek and has the Sony "Vaio" branding if you're into that. With a 16"+ laptop, weight and lowered battery life are a given. The hardware is very good other than the LCD and the cooling sytem is a little bit below average in my opinion. I'd say if this looks good on paper to you, head down to a brick and mortar to check out the LCD brightness, viewing angles, and weight before making your decision.

Sony VAIO VGN-FW550F/B 16.4-Inch Black Laptop (Windows 7 Home Premium) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)personally I prefer windows to mac primarily because windows is better with home video and other networked applications based on my experience. However, one problem with windows based pcs from dell amd hp is their really poor design amd general ergonomics. I still believe when it comes to design and build nothimg touches an apple mac book pro.
However, after coming very close to getting a 17 inch mac book I decided to go with a windows 7 based vaio Fw. the one I got has slightly better specs than the one here. I have the full HD screen and a blu ray writer. Here is why i believe this is an exellent notebook;
1. simply the best looking large screen windows based notebook. Kudos to Sony for excellent styling. (Aesthetics is a toss up between Mac Pro and Vaio FW for me)
2. excellent build quality. way better than my dell latitude from work or my wife's hp from work. The construction is solid. Kudos to Sony engineering for excellent construction (Apple Mac Pro is #1, Vaio is #2 in my books for this criteria)
3. screen size is a perfect 16:9 aspect ratio. Perfect for movies. (The Vaio FW is #1 in my opinion, this screen was designed for multi-media use)
4. blu ray looks fantastic and it is a breeze to connect it to my tv using the hdmi cable. One cable for audio and video. (Vaio FW is #1 for multi-media, hands down!)
5. It comes with 64 bit windows 7 and I upgraded the hardware to 8 GB Ram for blazing performance when combined with the 1 gb grapics card. (Windows 7 64 bit is the best OS in my books, All said and done)
6. came clean with no crapware!
7. sony laptops in my opinion have the best key boards. (Again, Sony created the chicklet style keyboard (not Apple) and if you like it, this is the best)
8. battery is OK. 3.5 hours on such a powerful machine is not bad.
all in all this a superb combination of performance, styling, features and software. do compare this with HP and Dell and decide which you prefer. I bet most will pick the Vaio because of the better build quality, better screen (1080p and true 16:9 size) and aesthetics. Also, compared to a Dell Lattitude that I had from work the Vaio runs much quieter and faster although both have similar hardware specs. The DVD drive on the Dell was atrocious (Dell also did not have a Blu Ray drive).
Given that Sony was one of the prime drivers and developers of the Blu Ray format, one would expect their Notebooks to have the best Blu Ray performance, or at least as good any anyone else out there.

(More customer reviews)I LOVE this laptop. I have both worked on and owned several brands and types of laptops. This is by far the best one yet. I know this sounds silly but after owning (and constantly cleaning) stainless steel appliances the thing that caught my attention on this laptop was the 'non-fingerprint' finish and the keyboard touch. I have owned the laptop for about a month now without any issues whatsoever. I have owned more expensive (and heavier) laptops in the past. For the price and size this baby delivers.

Sony VAIO VGN-FW560F/T 16.4" Notebook (2.13GHz Core 2 Duo P7450 6GB RAM 500GB HDD Blu-ray Read Only Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I bought this laptop for video and web development after a friend bought the same. Windows 7 was already installed, so I was leery and excited. I have not been let down yet. I've never owned a Vista machine because I didn't want to deal with the in-between headaches of Microsoft's OS releases, so I waited until 7 was out in the market for a bit, having beta tested it as an MS Partner.
I've not been disappointed yet. All the things my clients and friends have complained about with Vista have not plagued my experience at all. It operates well with all the available memory and the applications share data exchange really well. I have more apps open at once than I should and this machine handles it all very gracefully
CONS: The only complaint is the cheesiness of the speakers, esp. for a Sony product and the very strange video-making program which is for total amateurs that need a wizard to make a video (not that that's a bad thing).

Sony Vaio VGN-FW590F3B 16.4" 4GB BluRay Burner Laptop Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I just received this laptop 2 days ago. I've been using it as I've been setting it up as my main PC. It has a great build. Feels and looks fantastic. I watched a blue-ray disc and it looked great on the laptop's screen. Bluetooth is nice to have to be able to listen to music from the laptop on my bluetooth headset.
I've used it on battery power and it lasted over an hour and a half, and I had the setting at "balanced". The system said I had over 62% battery life remaining and I had been viewing video, pics, and wireless web usage.
The only thing that I haven't adjusted to yet is the sound from the fan whenever it's plugged in. I have it set to "Performance" mode whenever it is plugged in, but the sound from the fan kind of is going to get some taking used to. It's not loud, but you can hear it when things are quiet. It's not much, but something I'll have to get used to.
The other thing, which is minor, are the stickers Sony put on the wrist wrests. I would have rather not had the stickers all over the the wrist wrests. But hey, that's just me being picky. It has nothing to do with the system or the performance.
Reason I gave it 4 stars: was because of the fan. Were it not for the fan noise, it would have been 5 stars. I'm sure in a month or so, I will be used to the fan and will change it to 5 stars.

Sony VAIO VGN-NW350F/S 15.5" 4GB 320GB Laptop Silver Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I picked this laptop up last night. It was the only high end brand I could find with HDMI and blu-ray under $800 that had good processing ability along with other specific features I wanted... and I looked... and looked... and looked... The white keys and bright display are helpful if you occasionally use your laptop in the dark (though having a back lit keyboard would have been a nice bonus). Compared to all prior, dark cased laptops, I can finally see the keys clearly. Ive had a Vaio in the past and it's build quality was excellent. I once again can say that it feels like a solid laptop and I am going to be quite happy with it. This laptop's design is straight forward and relies highly on the function keys. Advanced users might appreciate the simplicity and straight forwardness of this laptop more than the average or novice who may need things more specifically laid out (or if you are a big fan of buttons).
It features a boot to internet button to quickly bypass its already speedy Windows 7 boot process.
Blu-Ray looks great. The only disappointment ive had with it is the speakers, but I havent had enough opportunity to truly judge them yet. I put in a blu-ray movie last night and it was so quiet at full volume I had trouble hearing it. Granted, normal Windows volume had a decent projection so I probably just need to check a few things out that I havent gotten around to yet.
The HDMI port along with the Blu-Ray allows me to connect it to my TV and gives me the option of removing the entertainment desktop I have next to my tv.
Would I buy it again? Definitely.
Side note: I love Amazon, but I found it for $730 in store. Sorry Amazon but you were a little too expensive this time around!
