Simple multi-gesture touchpad

The multi-gesture touchpad is the most intuitive way to interact with your laptop. brbr Scroll with two fingers, pinch to zoom in and out of images, swipe to flip through pages or photos, and you can even rotate an image, and much more.brbrUse your touchpad in the same way as if you were touching the screen. And rather than clicking on a button, just click on the left or right mouse areas in order to activate those functions.brbr

HD web camera

The built-in webcam and microphone let your family and friend see you clearly while chatting. The Exmor® sensor helps guarantee a clear, bright picture even in dimly-lit rooms. And with select applications, you can use the webcam and a few simple hand gestures to turn pages, skip songs, adjust the volume and more

Create something worth sharing

Sony Imagination Studio™ VAIO® Edition includes four powerful Sony applications: Movie Studio Platinum, ACID® Music Studio, Sound Forge® Audio Studio and DVD Architect™ Studio software - so you can create music and movies like never before.

Hybrid Hard Drive

With a HHD (Hybrid Hard Drive) you get the best of magnetic-hard disk drives and flash memory. Get faster access to your data, and faster boot up compared to a standard hard drive.

Rapid Wake

With Sony’s own Rapid Wake technology, you never have to shut down your computer again. Whether you are done working for the day or just heading out to get some coffee, simply close the lid to put your PC into sleep mode. Then, when you’re ready to start again, resume in two seconds with your data safe and secure. If you are unplugged, don’t worry about draining your battery. Your PC can stay in sleep mode for days¹⁰.

Service and Support

There's nothing standard about the standard Sony limited warranty on VAIO® computers. To give you the ultimate in speedy and convenient service, we come to you to repair PC issues whenever possible. Not many other PC manufacturers can match our expertise or comprehensive level of in-home support¹³. And we have extensive on-line support where you can chat with an associate and access drivers, software updates, FAQs, user forums and more.

Bold and Bright

Developed by the same people you trust to engineer amazing flat-panel HDTVs, this laptop features exceptional picture quality. The 14” (1366 x 768) widescreen display includes a glossy, anti-reflective finish which provides better color intensity without any glare.

Full connectivity

VAIO PCs seamlessly integrate ports so you don't have to carry a dongle. HDMI®, VGA and Gigabit Ethernet ports mean you can connect to your HDTV, Blu-ray Disc™ player, external monitor and more (cables sold separately). With the USB 3.0 port, transfer heavy files at speeds up to ten times faster than USB 2.0. Don’t forget the memory card slot for quick transfer of photos and videos.

Listen up

Integrated stereo speakers utilize the Clear Phase™ and xLOUD™ technologies, which delivers a richer, bolder and louder presence. xLOUD technology enhances speaker volume without sacrificing quality.

The handiest port around

Forgot to charge your phone or mp3 player? Just plug your device via USB cord into the USB sleep charge port and start charging. Even if the PC is shut down and not plugged in you can still use it. And don’t forget that the USB 3.0 port is perfect for connecting a compatible external hard drive and allowing you to wait less and transfer data up to 10x faster than USB 2.0.
