== Overview ==
The Sony VAIO Fit 14E (SVF14) is a low-mid range laptop released by Sony in 2013, along with the SVF15E. These were intended to be budget notebooks that were also thin and light, featuring low voltage soldered Intel CPUs and optional switchable NVIDIA graphics unlike the SVE line of laptops. The SVF14 consists of an all plastic build, which is fairly low quality. The main difference between the SVF14 and the SVF15 are the 14" screen as well as the lack of a subwoofer that is installed in the SVF15.

High end options for the SVF14 include a backlit keyboard, Blu-Ray drive, 1920x1080 screen and a switchable NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M with 2GB GDDR3 VRAM. Most SVF14s also featured a touchscreen as did other Windows 8 VAIOs. All SVF14s also came with a built in NFC antenna on the palm-rest, which could be used to transfer data or connect to devices such as Sony NFC headphones.

The SVF14 would then get a refresh, featuring the all-new Intel 4th gen CPUs, however other than that nothing else was changed. After Sony's computer division was sold to JIP (VAIO Corporation) in 2014, the SVF14 design would be discontinued and only the SVF15 design would be produced as the VJF15.

== Daily Usage Today ==
The SVF14 is still usable, with good performance if upgraded to an SSD and at least 8GB RAM, although low end Pentium models may suffer from some slowdowns. The NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M was a low end GPU at the time, so will only be able to handle light gaming such as Minecraft. The SVF14 provides decent performance on Windows 11 (assuming you don't have a Pentium) and is fully compatible, with all drivers working. The GPU switching is handled by NVIDIA Optimus, so standard NVIDIA drivers will work fine on the laptop. It is very important to check the hinges on the VAIO Fit 14E and 15E line, as they are very well known for breaking due to the low quality all plastic build. Do not buy any SVF14 if you see cracks near the hinge area on the palm-rest or the lid, this is a sign of the hinge failing.
