This cannot possibly hold up in court. You cant just advertise a product and then be like "*but actually we might be lying about some or all of these things"??? What the fuck are you selling then

Oh I couldn't speak on their modern build quality as mine is from 2014, back when Sony still owned Vaio. I wouldn't choose it over a Macbook to use as a racquet, but that wasn't the intended use case then nor would it be now.

I did use an Acer laptop for a bit once and that thing must have been damaged or something because the hinge was so loose it would slowly open up when I was typing. Eventually I remember propping it against something to keep from constantly adjusting it. Fortunately my Vaio doesn't suffer such an issue.
