I have used this computer for a couple of weeks now. It came with Windows 8 and I immediately upgraded to Windows 8.1. I still feel that past Window's OS are superior to 8 or 8.1, but the computer does what it is supposed to do. I also purchased a digital pen which is great to use on some of the Sony art softwares that are pre-installed. All and all, a good computer that I got at a discounted price.

I mainly use this computer for social and bill pay reasons. I have enjoyed watching movies on it since it is larger than my kindle! The most difficult thing for me was figuring out windows 8 and how to move around. I had to read the manual to figure out how to shut it down. That was a first. Overall I really like it!

i realize i put the highest marks possible but im not someone that works for best buy or vaio(i think vaio doesnt exist anymore of somthing), but im a incoming college freshman. I needed a laptop and i wanted a 2-in-1 and ive always like the metal and thinness of vaios. brand new this thing is too much money for me, but the refurbished one for 500 is perfect inside and out, no problems! the screen folds down flat on top of the keyboard which is beautiful instead of the new dumb laptops where it folds onto the bottom. smooth, supports steam, dota, and garrys mod!!! only bad thing is the armour shield or whatever it is that a bought separate isnt a great fit, but thats the screen protectors fault although it does fit decently. i guess speakers could be a little better. backlight keys are awesome! touch is good!

This laptop does have issues w/touchpad sensitivity, however, this does improve when you download the appropriate drivers. It does have additional touchpad options which seem to complicate use of the internet/programs at times, however, one can get use to them.

NEVER EVER buy a refurbished laptop. It was once someone else's problem... now it will be your problem if you buy one. Spend the extra money for a new one. Save yourself the frustration and hassle! !

This laptop isn't the greatest for any hefty applications, but it isn't designed for that. It works great with Netflix or any other video streaming, which comes out in crystal clear HD. The 3 different modes are also very convenient and comfortable.

The laptop is working great; however, the network drivers installed from the factory are very slow. After updating to the newest drivers, network performance improved. Upgrading to Windows 8.1 help the overall speed of the computer.
