Archive.org versionThe Vaio notebooks of the Sony era were known for their sleek, stylish designs and portability and it is good to see that the new Vaio notebooks will uphold this tradition. Despite being targeted at commercial and enterprise customers, the S series notebooks won’t look out of place in a hipster cafe. However, the lack of USB-C and Thunderbolt 3 ports could be a stumbling block for most users. That said, these notebooks look promising and could appeal to users seeking portability and durability above all else. It will be interesting to see how these new notebooks are priced and what configurations will be on offer, but we will have to wait until August for that.

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.
