Sony VAIO Z review: Portability, meet Power

Conclusion



We have said it before, and we will say it again: Sony's new VAIO Z notebook is a design and engineering marvel all rolled into a single attractive package, and we would even go as far as to claim that the legions of Apple cultists who worship Apple as the one and only computer OEM which knows how to deliver notebooks with impressive designs will have revise their opinions now that the VAIO Z is already out on retail shelves for sale. With its ultrathin frame, impressive 1080p screen and 'good-enough' performance for handling most daily computing needs, the new VAIO Z is the kind of notebook which is sure to make heads turn when whipped out for use anywhere.

Of course, nothing in this world is perfect, and this concept applies to the VAIO Z as well. Where it excels in portability and design, it falls flat on its face where the bank account is concerned, and for good reason. This is because you are definitely going to breaking both the bank book and your piggy bank all at once with Sony's asking price of S$3,999 (PHP 139,965) for the VAIO Z, a figure which can easily be used to purchase at least two mid-range notebooks and still have some money left over. However, if you have pockets deep enough to cough out that kind of money, and cannot do without the style and the portability that is the VAIO Z, we'd say that it is probably worth every cent of your hard earned cash.

Verdict:



Final score:

nice design but im worried about the hinges.

I wouldnt worry about the hinges because i will not be buying one because i cannot afford one.

I've been longing for the old Z series since time in memorial. I've went repeatedly to Sony Ayala for like 20times just to check if the price has dropped. Sadly not even by a cent.

Nice one...but my Cons is lacking of most unique features such as keyboard lighting, more battery life, should be more thinner and more....

Price is not good for a common pc/laptop.
