    Can anyone here give me some thoughts on this?

    I know the Z has better graphics and maybe speed. But which has the better build quality and durabilty?

    If you're considering mainly durability, the X201 would definitely put up with more abuse than the Z. Undoubtedly, the Z does have better graphics performance, as you also noted. Which one you choose ultimately comes down to what you want from your laptop.

    i think this is topic is discussed before, performance wise the Z series is better, but X201 beats in robustness.

    The Sony Z is overpriced. Otherwise I'd own one. :D
