  The Good: If this 16-inch laptop is any indication, the Centrino 2 platform offers excellent battery life; 16:9 screen perfect for HD movies; excellent keyboard; attractive, simple design.

  The Bad: No immediate performance gains seen here from Centrino 2; screen not really true 1080p, despite the sticker on the system that says so; clicky media buttons seem old-fashioned; still some advertising clutter, but less than previous Vaio models.

  The Bottom Line: Sony's smart design, long battery life, and a big 16-inch screen, make the Vaio FW140--the first Centrino 2 laptop we've seen--an excellent, but still portable, media hub.

  Review Summary: Sony's latest take on the low-powered ultraportable form factor is the Sony Vaio YB3V1E, an update to the VPC-YB2M1E which was launched just six months ago. It weighs the same as the average netbook, but has a bigger, higher resolution screen.

  The Verdict: A high resolution screen and fantastic keyboard, but performance and battery life are underwhelming

  Review Summary: Student snack. Punctually for the summer business Sony has refreshed the Vaio palette and now offers the VPC-SB2L1E/W as an affordable subnotebook with an Intel Core i3-2310M CPU, AMD Radeon HD 6470M On/Off graphics, and a matte 13.3 inch display,...

  The Verdict: Furthermore the high temperatures and system noise under load, as well as the partially covered air vent for the cooling system. We hope for a considerable case update for the Vaio VPC-SB3 series

  Review Summary: Incredible performance and portability from Sony's latest Z Series laptop

  The Verdict: With its incredible combination of power and portability, this is the best ultra-portable laptop of recent times. It may lack the glamour of some of its rivals, but the Sony VAIO VPC-Z21V9E is worth its high pricetag.

  Review Summary: As you'd expect from Sony, the new Vaio C Series is something of a looker. Our review model was the white version of this mid-range lifestyle laptop which comes in a choice of four other colours: ...

  The Verdict: The Vaio C Series has a lot going for it on a number of fronts, not the least of which is the excellent build quality and stylish appearance. It's a quiet running and pretty well specified machine with enough pep to run games, albeit without any bells...

  Review Summary: Unfortunately the panel on the VPCCA1S1E is a glossy. When using it outside, sun rays will pose a definite problem. Its 14.5 inch screen has a 1366x768p resolution and the characters can be read without too much visual fatigue. We've still got the...

  The Verdict: Although its graphics card won't give the sort of performance gamers are looking for, coupled with its powerful processor it is efficient for multimedia, Internet and document usage. Make sure you don't stray too far from the socket however as its...
