    My screen had a defect on the left side (major light leakage between the bezel and the screen, something was probably loose) and my right-click button stopped working, both issues were fixed (the screen was completely changed and the buttons were fixed but not replaced) under warranty and Sony even extended my warranty because of my issues.

    I have some problems with the drivers (more like Sony not providing Windows 7 drivers for my model) but nothing major. Also, no problems with the hinges here.
