Review Sony Vaio VPC-EC3M1E/BJ Notebook

 

Family Laptop. Each laptop has its strong points but there's neve

Comfortable Keyboard; Quiet and Cool; Good Performance; Quiet Hard Drive; Various Ports

Reflective Screen; Narrow Range of Viewing Angles; Weak Contrast Ratio; Short Battery Life; No Bluetooth 3.0; 2nd HDD Slot Unusable; GPU downsampled; Sporadically Loud Fan

The similar 17" VPC-EC3X5E model can be equipped with 2x500 GB HDD. Sony prevents you from installing two HDDs on your own with a single SATA connection for the two available HDD slots.

Powerfull, quick, good looking

Sony software is rubbish (power management, hotkey control etc). Mouse pad is a bit sensitive even at low sensitivity, has a habit of double clicking when you don't want it to.
