This Sony SVS13A18GXB replaced a Samsung Q430 with a second generation Intel Core i5 and GeForce 310M discrete graphics which has been a good laptop but is now overheating frequently even after cleaning the vent and fan. I use this laptop for work and play and the real test for me is game-play. I am running my favorite game with no hiccups and much faster than on the Samsung laptop. The 1600 x 900 resolution is far superior to the 1366 x 768 for detail and blu-ray movies look superb though I know it would be better on a full HD. The built-in widi solves that problem by being able to display the full HD on my large screen television wirelessly through the aftermarket adapter.
I like the fingerprint swipe instead of logging in every time I boot and speaking of boot time... it's almost instantaneous after opening the lid if you don't power down. Just close the lid instead of powering down and when you re-open... there it is within 2 seconds. You can literally go days by just closing the lid instead of powering down. Even running full brightness with the discrete graphics card I get almost twice the battery life than on the old Samsung. This computer is lighter, faster and the battery lasts longer. This was nearly twice the price of the Samsung but the performance is so much better it was worth it.
My rating is 4 stars because it is a bit pricey in comparison but there aren't many laptops this light with these features. I looked at the ultra-books but the graphics performance just isn't there yet with maybe one exception.
