Sony Vaio VPC-EA1Z1E/L review

Sony's Vaio laptops have a reputation for style and build quality, and the new 14in Vaio E Series is a good example of this. It comes in a choice of colours and the sturdy chassis really impressed us. For example the power button merges with the edge...

A beautifully-made laptop, the VPC-EA1S1E/L has average performance, battery life and multimedia features, and its design is the only thing that really tands out.

My little pink laptop

This is an excellent laptop, it is what you'd expect for a top of the range laptop. Recommend this product.

Most satisfying buy ever

being a girl I always wanted a pink laptop...although the white laptop in the same series and configuration was £49 less than the pink one...I did not hesitate to puchase this one as it left me wtih a feeling for complete satisfaction.

Sony Vaio VPC-EA1Z1E

Its is good design and efficient

It comes with alot of pop ups and trials that are really annoying ; I expected the speed of it to be faster since it was one of the better choice. However it is still good
