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.

Above all, this display size is used for subnotebooks, ultrabooks and convertibles. For all three types, this size is quite large. The biggest variety of subnotebooks is represented with this size.

Large display-sizes allow higher resolutions. So, details like letters are bigger. On the other hand, the power consumption is lower with small screen diagonals and the devices are smaller, more lightweight and cheaper.
