I love this laptop ,I just bought myself one the other day and its great. I have a core i3 with nvidia 310m geforce 4gb ram ddr3. I play halo on it and the graphics are just like the xbox 360 graphics..GREAT! I also do a lot of programming which requires a lot of processing power and the cpu works great for that also!

My Acer just broke for the 3rd time because of a hardware problem so i now have store credit in Comet of 730 pounds and the Sony CW is 699 so i think i will get this but does it run Windows 7 smooth and fast, does it overheat easy, is the screen quality good, do the keys light up, can i download allot of torrents and watch them on this. Please someone answer all my questions and add any positive or negative things about this laptop. This is the model they have in stock SONY VPCCW1Z4E. thank's
is this good for downloading allot of torrents, web browsing watching videos and batterie life, please be honest, my acer just broke for the third time so i have store credit of 730 pounds and think i will get this, does it overheat easy
alienware m11x has a very weak cpu and is still very think for a 11" imo it's a weird machine that doesn't fit the needs of many.
the asus ul50 is a very good machine but it's bigger.
The CW will be cheaper and faster than any macbook pro refresh if you add the i7 (or i5-540) but the build quality is cheaper.. Still it's a bit smaller than the 15" mbp and you get same or better specs.. I doubt the 13" mbp will get up to the i5-540 and a gt330m.
its definetly better avlue for money..i saw one in real life in a store esterday..didn't luk as gud as the fotos..fingerprint magnet as well. sadly the new specs aren't out yet (corei5 and gt330m), even on the sony site (pre-order without estimated date).
@lorieborie is that 4 hours with full brightness? or is that the maximum you can get with the lowest brightness setting? also, about how long is the battery for video?
NO, I don't recommend it, I have it for just 1 MONTH, and the LEFT internal SPEAKER is already DEAD!!!! The sound produced from the right speaker is low, so I can use it only with headphones or external speakers.
That is an Awsomw video Man. Now I know how to unpack mine without damage. I'm not being sarcastic either. I want one of these so damn bad from Best Buy. I just have to wait until I get my tax return at the end of Jan. 2010
I just purchased the sony vaio CW laptop, the VPCCW17FX. At first I thought the fan ran a little loud, but there was a bios update to help the performance of the fan. After using the update I can now hardly ever hear the fan, yet the laptop is always cool.
sony took away the cs series and replaced it with this new cw series, i liked the cs series better, they took away the touch controls on the cw series, i don't mind that it's not glossy though, i'm not a fan of glossy products, scratch to easily
I made my build for $999.99 # Intel® Core™ 2 Duo Processor P8700 (2.53GHz) # Genuine Microsoft® Windows® 7 Home Premium 64bit # Icy White # 500GB Hard Disk Drive (5400rpm) # 4GB (2GBx2) DDR3-SDRAM-1066 # NVIDIA® GeForce® GT230M GPU (512MB VRAM) # Blu-ray Disc™ playback
Hey i was wondering what you (or anyone here for that matter) think of how the red one actually looks?
I'm a sucker from attractive tech and the only thing that puts me off this laptop is its bizarre styling. Im leaning towards white at the moment becuse it has the illusion of being slimmer but i love the colour red.. just not sure i love red layed over a hunk of cheap looking (?) black plastic.
I like the white one, red just seems odd to me the way they did it is weird to be honest, I like either the white or pink coz they're both of the same shades, but not like the blue or the red, I'm getting mine by the end of this and I'm getting the white one. The white looks really cool
please help me decide between sony vaio cw series with P7450(2,13Ghz),3Gbt ram ,Nvidia 230m Geforce 512mb,14 inch or HP pavilion dv3-2050 with cpu P8600(2.40ghz),3 gbt ram ,Nvidia 105m 512mb geforce ,13,3inch.........

The updated version comes with core i3 and better gpu geforce gt330m ..should be able to handle most games on low-moderate settings.
I'm deciding between this, the new mbp(if it ever comes out!!), alienware m11x and asus ul50.hmmm

So not an option at the moment
melforever27 2 years ago
Remember where you order... In canada you can't get the gt330m nor the 1600x900 resolution, but you can get the i7 cpu.
In the US you can get the i5 and gt330m

IMPORTANT QUESTION - PLEASE ANSWER. - have you had any problems with the fan since you bought it, does it kick it excessivelly or make funny noises ?
Because the previous model Vaio CS had massive problems with a faulty, and frequent fan, its the main reason why the CW model was introduced.
Would love to hear your experience.
