hi, this is my own perspective and experience, since 2005-2008 almost all the computers i bought from USA ended up getting messed up somehow, mostly hardware, ive bought few from best buy, sony store, and online, and found out that they were made in USA/Chine , forgot which, but the lappy's i bought from Europe (UK) all of them turned out to be working fine even up until now, and ive gotten almost all sorts of models
P.S. im kinda speaking on behalf of my family, relatives, but ive physically used each one
bought 2 N series from sony store in USA, one is still working fine, one had motherboard failure,
S(UK) still going S(USA) problems after few months[best buy] Sz1 x2(UK) both still okay. SZ3(USA)[refurb][sony online] got a 100Gb HDD but came in a 3GB, 16GB and 32 GB partition, speakers wernt working, after 1+ when opened up to clean, found out they never connected the speaker cables!
SZ4(UK) my current,okay but USB ports are gone i think their 1.1 USB instead 2.0's and my audio ports arent working properly, ive dropped it few times. FE3(UK) still going, one of my dads main lappy's FE890(USA) still going good
FZ3 x2(UK) still running great
FW (USA) problems problems problems,
FW (UK) still going
C, CR, TR, TZ, Tx, FE,Z etc....the list goes on and on, i mean it might be due to each person's personal usage and stuff but ive personally found japan made ones are far better in quality, i know most people will reject this notion, since why would a company make a better quality product from one comp to the other. anyways these are my view sorry if i went on and on lol, i have a tendancy to do that

 

I had heard with some models like the Vaio TZ for instance, the pre-built models were made in Japan (mine is) and if you ordered a custom-built one, it would be made in the USA, specifically in California. I don't know if that's changed now, probably most if not all are made here now.

Of course if you buy in Japan, whether pre-built or customized, it will be built in Japan.

 

thank guys, that was really helpful.
so now we can buy the usa product from sonystyle.com.... then how can we buy the japan product online ??

 

mine, although pre-built, is made in the USA
