    Hi,
    I got VAIO S 15.5 but I may return due to sound problem and doesn't support SATA 3, and get HP Envy instead

    I may buy HP Envy 15t-3200 and I have some questions:
    - Is IPS (Full HD) screen color quality good?
    - I heard that HP has more heat than others and that affects performance, it's correct in HP Envy?
    - Is there dual GPU (hope not)?
    - Does it support SATA 3?
    - Does it support Bluetooth 4?
    - How's keyboard and touchpad?

    Thanks

    Colors are deep and crisp, screen is beautiful

    Envy has a great heating system, will not affect performance. I have gamed hours at a time and it has never overheated

    Keyboard is good, keys have good feedback and the keyboard just looks stunning
    Touchpad could use work, but then again its not the worst.

    The laptop is worth getting, it looks so good and is sleek although its a little on the heavy side. Also keep in mind that some units have QC issues as i received mines two days ago and it came with a squeaky back and a dented usb, i have to call them tomorrow for a replacement.

    Nice info, thanks a lot, I called them few hours ago, they said it doesn't support SATA 3, but they're planning to release an chipset update to support it.
