Exceptional LED backlit display

The 11.6" LED backlit widescreen display on the YB Series laptop offers lower power consumption for improved battery life while providing incredibly high brightness levels that amplify colors and deliver clear, crisp picture quality to bring your movies and pictures to life—even spreadsheets will look amazing.

Take it to the big screen

Whether you’re streaming your favorite TV shows or sharing photos and home videos, the VAIO® YB laptop lets you view content on your compatible HDTV at an incredibly high level of resolution. An HDMI™ output delivers both your video and audio to compatible TVs and displays via a single cable (sold separately), providing the optimal digital connection.

Built-in web camera

Chat face to face with friends and family anywhere you have internet access. The VAIO® YB laptop features an integrated camera and microphone to make staying in touch a snap.

Perfectly portable

Whether you’re looking for a lightweight laptop for frequent travel or just need a compact PC within easy reach around the house, the YB Series PC is a great option at only 3.2 lbs. Its thin profile and compact 11.6” screen size make it a cinch to tote or easily slip in and out of carrying cases.

Stereo Bluetooth® technology

Break free and enjoy your computing and entertainment without being tied down by cord clutter. Stereo Bluetooth® technology enables you to stream CD-quality music and audio from your laptop to other compatible devices, like mice, headphones and speakers.27

A more intuitive keyboard

Practical innovation is a cornerstone of Sony’s vision, and our keyboards are no exception. Designed for ease of use, not only does the Y Series laptop feature a full-size keyboard unique in such a small computer, but the spacing between the keys is precisely engineered to create a comfortable and intuitive typing experience.

One touch help with the ASSIST button

The VAIO® YB Series laptop comes with an ASSIST button conveniently placed on the keyboard panel so that help is always at your fingertips. Just push the button and you’ll launch directly into Sony’s own VAIO Care™ software, an easy-to-use PC tune up and maintenance tool.

Free yourself from the cord

Mobility is as much about long battery life as it is about small form factors, and that’s where the YB Series delivers. Thanks to features such as an energy-efficient LED backlit display, this laptop offers up to 6 hours of battery life.9
