Do you want power, great looks, and prestige? The Sony VAIO SZ
laptop might be your answer. This thin and light device comes
packed with portable energy, a stylish design, and loads of
features, while maintaining a light and thin profile. These
attributes should certainly appeal to most company users who demand
energy and portability inside a package. The fastest model
available uses Intel's Core Duo T2500, clocked at 2.0GHz with other
models obtainable in 1.86GHz. It's also equipped with 1GB DDR2
(supporting up to 2GB) RAM, up to a 120GB 5400RPM difficult drive,
along with a beautiful 13.3-inch widescreen LCD with XBRITE
technology.
Powering the sleek display is really a Hybrid Graphics System,
allowing you to switch between a discrete NVIDIA GeForce Go 7400
graphics chip and integrated Intel Graphics Media Accelerator 950..
It also doesn't fall short in the communication spectrum, with
built-in Wi-Fi 802.11a/b/g, Bluetooth and even Broad Area Network
(WWAN) to help you surf on the internet anywhere with cellular
coverage. With these specs, one may find this machine ideal for
both travel and as a desktop replacement, but the SZ weighs less
than 4 pounds! However, with the amount of great things going for
it, there are a few drawbacks that we'll discuss in this
review.This smooth machine is available in two versions: The SZ
Premium design, which sports a Carbon Fiber case weighing three.7
pounds along with a razor thin LCD panel, and also the standard SZ
design which is wrapped inside a magnesium alloy case and weighs
4.1 pounds. Speaking from my personal preference, this laptop
computer fits the profile both being a perfect work machine for
house and on the run. Add the optional docking station for
additional connectivity including much more USB ports and DVI to
convert it into a portable desktop replacement device. Obviously,
for a premium laptop, expect to pay a premium price. The lowest
design sells for close to $1800 and the costliest configurations
can reach up to $2600.
Mobility is in demand, especially for those who travel frequently
where each ounce matters. Classified as thin-and-light, the VAIO SZ
excels in portability. Measuring 12.5-inches broad, 9.3-inches long
and only .9-inches thick in front section and extending 1.3-inches
thick towards the back, this slim notebook is made to slip very
easily inside most laptop computer carry cases or backpacks. At
three.72 pounds with the standard battery, the VAIO SZ (Premium) is
intended to accompany you wherever you go, best suited for heavy
travelers for example students and business professionals. Even the
4.1 pound regular SZ design won't break your back.
In the past, I haven't been as well fond of Sony's keyboard comfort
degree using the exception from the A series. However, the keyboard
high quality about the SZ has improved. The keyboard layout offers
a spacious area for typing, with large-sized keys to prevent any
kind of cramping or even mistyping. I can type quickly, accurately,
and quite comfortably. In fact, I'm typing this evaluate on it
right now. The keys aren't mushy or stiff by any means, but they
don't offer the exact same kind of 'soft' and 'quiet' comfort-level
feel on the keyboard in the Apple MacBook Pro. Thanks towards the
3mm key level depth, it offers adequate depression levels to ensure
a much better typing experience. Noise generation is really a bit
loud when typing. Overall, this keyboard is sufficient for my level
of typing, but doesn't match the high quality levels of the MacBook
Pro or ThinkPads.
The touchpad measures 2.6-inches wide and 2.3-inches in length,
offering sufficient area area to permit comfortably gliding of
one's finger. The silver flush area is clean and smooth, sensitive
to touch and responds accurately to movement. As with most touch
pads, it also allows for tapping to execute an action if you prefer
not to use the click buttons. You can also drag objects about the
screen using this touchpad.Right edge of the area region, the
touchpad has a function to scroll vertically. This allows you to
scroll in applications like Internet Explorer when sliding your
finger in the appropriate direction.
