About the Sony VAIO E14
Part of Sony's last VAIO laptops before Sony sold the VAIO business in 2014, the Sony VAIO E14 is one of the final Sony-made VAIO laptops. It dates from 2012 to 2014. It has a 14-inch screen, the most common laptop size, so replacement panels are easy to find.
Its memory and storage can both be upgraded. Parts are still widely available, either new or as tested replacements.

- Screen replacement: Screens on the Duo and Tap models are touch assemblies and cost more to replace.

Sony VAIO E14 questions
Can you get my files off a Sony VAIO E14 that won’t turn on?
Usually, yes. The Sony VAIO E14 has a removable drive, so we can often read it directly even if the rest of the laptop is dead. If the drive itself has failed, we recover your files from a copy.
How long does a Sony VAIO E14 repair take?
Screen, keyboard and battery repairs are often done the same day when the part is in stock. Board repairs take a few days, and we give you a timescale with the quote.
