Review Sony Vaio T13 SVT1312V1ES Ultrabook

Touch-book. Sony is affordable. A real SSD, high-end aluminum chassis and touchscreen for 885 Euros (~$1164). A premium Vaio for little money? ...

Short wake-up times ; Good battery life ; Fast SSD & high application performance ; Very good workmanship ; USB 3.0, VGA and HDMI ; Fair price ; Removable battery ; Easy-to-use touchpad ; Keyboard's good feedback

Low brightness, particularly on battery power ; The edge-to-edge screen's extreme reflectiveness ; Low contrast

The empty 2.5-inch SATA slot lets the hearts of hardware tuners beat faster. The RAM is not soldered and there are two real SODIMM slots. The 13-incher runs for nearly six hours despite the "small" 45 watt hour battery. Kudos

Sony Vaio T13 Ultrabook (touch screen)

The Vaio T series is Sony's line of 13.3- and 14-inch ultrabooks that start at a reasonable price of $669. When we reviewed a $799 13.3-inch version of it back in June , we noted that it really didn't stray far from other slim Sony laptops like the...

The Sony Vaio T13 Touch gives you the convenience of a full-size keyboard and touch pad with a responsive touch screen for experiencing the Windows 8-style interface. It has very good performance for its class and excellent battery life.

The T13 Touch doesn't have a backlit keyboard and it's on the heavy side (if you consider 4 pounds heavy). The screen doesn't go fully flat and its hinges aren't stiff enough to handle writing or drawing well.

If you like the idea of having a touch screen on your Windows 8 laptop, the Sony Vaio T13 Touch isn't a bad way to go.

Sony VAIO T13 (SVT13114GXS)

The Sony VAIO T13 (SVT13114GXS) ($849.99 list) is an all-metal ultrabook that aims at being both attractive and functional for the user that wants more out of his laptop than just a commodity experience. When the price difference between class leader...

Full-size HDMI port. Decent price. Large hard drive. 32GB SSD is larger than rivals. Aluminum and Magnesium construction. 7 hour battery life

Only 30-day subscription to Internet Security. A few bloatware icons on desktop. Slower than systems with non-hybrid SSD. Heavier than rivals. No keyboard backlight. Fan is a little obtrusive

The all-metal Sony VAIO T13 (SVT13114GXS) ultrabook seeks the perfect mix of design, functionality, and performance, and mostly succeeds. However, similarly priced rivals shine just a bit brighter on features and performance.
