This was my first laptop. I went for Sony because they have good brand name in electronics. The specs of this laptop are
-Flexible configurations
-Base Core i3
-4GB RAM, 500GB HDD
-AMD Radeon Graphics card
It worked fine for the first few months but then it started giving battery problems and also the screen light would go off on its own. I used it for two years. I would not recommend this as it is very old model now.
