Sony Vaio VPCSB1S1E

Zitat: It´s a little disappointing that the fit and finish isn´t quite up to the standards we´d expect from a £1,700 laptop. It just doesn´t have the perfectly clean lines and premium build materials we usually find in systems that expensive. In this case, it´s because our test unit is the very upper end of a line that is meant to start at £699 - and at that price, the overall design is about average. In other words, I´m really impressed by the outstanding performance and usability of this very expensive ultraportable laptop, but oddly enough, a little underwhelmed by Sony´s sense of style.

Zitat: Pros: + Light, thin and attractive + Good screen and connectivity + Excellent backlit keyboard + Flexible specs with discrete graphics + Dock for extended battery life Cons: - Battery life inferior to competition - Noisy under load! - Dreadful speakers Sony´s 13.3in ultraportable is sleek, stylish, available in a range of colours, and stuffed with connectivity. It offers excellent build quality with a lovely aluminium keyboard surround; a good, backlit keyboard; decent screen and versatile specifications, which include discrete graphics for some light gaming. The only things preventing it from winning one of our coveted awards are that it trails the pack when it comes to battery life, and gets very noisy on occasion.
