Sony VAIO T Series SVT14127CXS 14-Inch Discounts

Andrew K. McIntosh (USA) :
I am an engineering student and bought this computer for college next year. I have had positive experiences with Sony products in the past and was hoping for good results with this one. I should have heeded the two other reviews on here warning of wifi issues, because I had the same problem. Out of the box, the wifi worked for about an hour, then stopped working. I updated drivers to no avail, and even re-imaged the hard drive to try to fix this. No matter what I tried, the wifi would continue to drop out after a minute of connection. Perhaps if I spent another two weeks looking for a fix as another reviewer did I might have eventually found an answer. However, it's up to you whether you want to preserve your sanity looking for a solution. I have since returned this computer and am typing this from an ASUS S400ca DB51t, which is running without any hitches so far.

Seiji Hayashi (Hyattsville, MD) :
Aside from the horrible Windows 8, the computer functions pretty well (speed, stability, functions). I tried Skype and the camera did not work. After spending 2 hours on the phone with customer service, they asked me to ship the computer back to Sony. They fixed the camera, but the shocker was how poor the camera quality was. The maximum resolution is 1.0 megapixel. This means it's a grainy picture with poor color and lighting. I should have looked at the specs better before buying, but I assumed that Sony would not have this type of issue. It's all over the internet how poor the webcam quality is. In today's world, a webcam is essential. I would not buy this again.

My image of Sony products is very positive and pricy. My daughter loves the looking of this Sony laptop although there are reviews mentioned WiFI issue on this model. so we go ahead to buy this laptop and hope we are not the 50% of unlucky buyers to get a laptop with bad WIFI. In the first day, WIFI sometime worked, But most of time it did not work. In the second day, WIFI did not work. Return this unit and plan to buy other brand.
