The only major flaw present with the current port layout is the lack of a USB port on the right side for consumers looking to use an external mouse. While users may find themselves wanting a few more ports, the adequate spacing and accessibility of each port is a welcomed design choice. Right: Headset jack, media card slot, HDMI, VGA, Ethernet Left: AC power jack, heat vent, USB 2.0, USB 3.0

The right side offers an Ethernet port, a VGA video port, a HDMI port, a microSD slot, and a headphone/mic jack. The left side provides the power jack, a USB 2.0 port, and a USB 3.0 port. The small 13.3-inch notebook may not be loaded with ports but it does provide all the necessities and more importantly, the ports are spaced out and easy to access. Overall the Sony VAIO T provides a strong mix of portability and stability making it a solid choice for those looking to travel with ease and style. Though, I guess consumers should be thankful even for that considering it is an Ultrabook. In fact, even removing the battery is a chore as it requires consumers to remove three screws before being able to access and remove it. Luckily while the display does tend to give rather easily to pressure it still appears durable only offering a bit of rippling along the edges of the display, with no noticeable distortion in the middle of the screen.īeing an Ultrabook, it should come as no surprise that the Sony VAIO is not friendly to those looking to alter or upgrade their device. Unfortunately given just how thin the display is, it does give when considerable pressure is applied. The thin metal chassis provides little to no flexibility when it comes to the body of the machine. I was easily able to traverse to and from work with this device in addition to my normal work notebook.Ĭonsidering the small slender frame that the Sony VAIO T sports it is quite sturdy. Weighing in at only 3.5 pounds, the device puts little strain onto the consumer.

Simply put, if you are looking for a device that looks the part, you would be hard pressed to find a device better suited than the Sony VAIO CXS.īeyond simply looking beautiful, the compact 12.7-inch x 8.9-inch x 0.7-inch frame makes this device a breeze to travel with. Every edge is slanted, the coat glistens reflecting light off of the thin metallic chassis, and even the embroidered VAIO lettering on the display cover embodies the suave sophisticated feel that this notebook strives for. The 13.3-inch Sony VAIO TSV is basically the poster-child of what you would expect (visually) from an ultrabook.
