The Sony Vaio Pro 13 is an excellent Windows 8 alternative to the Apple MacBook Air 13". It's ultra-light and has a superb screen, tons of processing power, great sound quality and over 6½ hours of battery life. It's a device capable of quenching the thirst of the most demanding of ultrabook users.

Sony's VAIO Z Series was arguably the precursor to the ultrabook. A few minor design issues aside, Sony's VAIO Pro 13 is an excellent ultrabook that's extremely light and quite long-lasting. If you don't mind its high price, it's a great travel-friendly PC for productivity and entertainment.

There are hardly any tablets in this display size range anymore. For subnotebooks, on the other hand, it is the standard format.
The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small and therefore easily portable. The smaller display also has the advantage of requiring less power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is more strenuous on the eyes. High resolutions are more likely to be found in standard laptops.
