Sony VAIO YB Series VPCYB35AN Laptop

1. Killer Looks, even the black colour looks modest with its scratch resistant finish.
2. The only notebook presently available in the Indian Market to possess the AMD E-450 Processor (others have E-350) which is the best one in the AMD Brazos E-series Platform.
3. Windows Expereince Index = 3.9, highest for any netbook and challenging for many notebooks even.(Lowest subscore is of the processor itself.)
4. Very good performance in terms of general usage as well as multimedia.
5. Very good graphics, best in any netbook, so can play some hardcore games even. The screen too is of optimal resolution.
6. The temperature of the core is slighlty higher than others but you wont feel it on the body, no fan noise even.
7. Out of 2GB, 1.6GB is usable rest is shared by the graphics card, but one memory slot is empty in case u wish to upgrade.
8. 64-Bit supportable.
9. Has an HDMI but no eSATA port.

Well iam also using the same netbook mention here.

Its really rcok solid netbook.

The problem which above person is mentioning is present in all the netbooks. But this one is much faster then all of them. Also not able to change desktop is not the problem with this netbook its an in general problem with Windows Starter edition, you can check micrsoft website for this , they have clearly written in windows starter edition they dont support customizable desktop.
I really liked its performance too , i am a very hardcore internet user and i really like its response. Also webcam quality is much better than any other laptop of this range.

Ive been using this laptop for over a month now. This is my third netbook. i use a netbook for its small formfactor, battery life etc. my first netbook was aspire150 which had various reliability issues, the second, a dell inspiron mini, which was a solid book,had no issues with it what so ever-got stolen, hence i bought this netbook with a brand new processor-AGP.

This is a well designed netbook.I own the black one.
The LED display has that sony quality.And to an extend is anti-reflective.
Comes loaded with a lot of bloatware-once you get them removed and with a little tweak , everything becomes smooth-no issue.
I could play full hd movie without a problem.

The built in camera is a real let down.worse than certain first gen camerafones.For one moment i looked myself in the mirror to confrim that i didnt have psoriasis.it could be that worse..but then i dont use it much-so, no issue

The battery barely lasts 4 hrs.On moderate multimedia use, may be 3 and a half .

To my surprise, i found that with no obvious reason the plastic,where u rest your palm started to lose its sheen/texture.- a small patch.i ignored this.after a few days,it becomes a black patch as if with a permanent marker. i tried cleaning it with all imaginable solutions .the mark stays.if u try cleaning with alcohol, a black pigment is shed from the plastic.Then i had no option, but to cover it up with a sticker.

I dont remember having spilled any kind of fluid on my laptop.
i think this is a problem with thw plastic itself

Apart from these minor glitches, the laptop is fine in terms of performance.

I received this laptop 2 days back from flipkart. As usual packing and delivery was fantastic.
About the product, it is superb by all means. It is fast, zippy and cool. I upgraded it to 6GB with windows 7 home premium. It is really fast now. Battery back up 3-4 hours. screen very good. keyboard classy. No problem whatsoever with all kinds of connectivity. They just work fine. Configured windows live mail with 3 gmail accounts and it works very smoothly. for the People with more mail accounts this is a blessing!! Using Reliance netconnect for internet and its fast compared to my Lenovo all in one PC.
Overall very good product. Decided to go for this instead of HP Probook 4420s. And I dont regret my choice. Go for this guys...

Ciao.

A stylish, portable yet powerful laptop.

+ The display is the best in < 11" models available out there.. Excellent resolution & brightness.
+ Battery life is good, I'm able to grab almost 4 hours 30 minutes using Ubuntu Linux & on windows it comes around for 4 hours.
+ Keyboard is not too cramped and is comfortable for typing. Didn't take much time for me to get comfortable with the smaller keyboard as I'm very much accustomed to the bigger keyboard of my 15" laptop.
+ The AMD Dual Core processor provides excellent kick where ever required. Haven't observed any lag even when heavy multi tasking.
+ Radeon graphics processor is also good, but observed lag sometimes when playing high resolution BlueRay movies (could be VLC's problem too).
+ Haven't observed heavy heat or anything. The notebook remained cool even when the load is heavy. You can hear the fan noise only when the ambiance is pin drop silent.
+ Weight is an excellent plus point. Improves portability & one can operate comfortably while standing and resting the laptop on one hand's palm.
+ Good driver download support on Sony's website.
+ HDMI output to my LED TV was very good with excellent resolution & crisp display
+ 320GB HDD & 2GB Ram doesn't let you feel needy for more

- Bundled Sony Vaio softwares aren't so useful
- No MS Office Suite
- Very basic Windows 7 Home Starter Edition
- No USB 3.0
- No Bluetooth 4.0
- Not SSD Hard Drive, Not even 7600 RPM disk, only 5200 RPM HDD

Overall a very good product and value for money. Excellent packaging & delivery by Flipkart.
