    There was only one man who posted images of his SZ6-series screen, where yellow bands were noticible.
    Please, every owner of sz6series, attach an image of your screen.
    Also please post images of a laptop in interior, because there are only 2 reviews of SZ6 in the net, and there no "home" photos of SZ6 to see.

    P.S: I've already e-mailed Mr.Chika Yoshida, from Sony Europe, one week ago, and described a problem, but hasn't got reply from him.

    I do have a black band in one area of my screen which is specially very visible on light coloured and white backgrounds... Definitely a screen defect and if I was living in the States I'd probably send the lappy back to get it replaced. Will post a picture some other time.

    Getting my euro version sz61xn/c next week hopefully. Ill check for those screen defects. I'm not even 100% sure what I'll get, premium or "normal", this model being only one available. ;D

    that's the same version as you see on my pics,

    it is carbon fibre, but no premium carbon fibre lid.

    I think its carbon fibre (it's the black one, and it says carbon fibre on the sony style site also).
