Sony VAIO TZ31MN/N

This sony VAIO TZ31MN/N is a new one not only from sony but also from there range of seriously ultra portable laptops. The features this has for a laptop of its size is great compared to any laptop and its also so portable its unbelievable it really is a technical persons dream.

There has recently been an increase in ultra portable laptops and even pc tablets too, and this is what this laptop can be used as seen as its that small. A big contender coming in the market recently and also something that I will be reviewing soon is the asus EEE pc. This however doesn’t run on windows so is a downside for me and many others and also doesn’t have anywhere near the memory and hard drive this laptop has so this definitely wins that. The only thing is though this is a lot dearer which is something ill mention a little later on.

If I had to describe its looks in a few words I think id choose cool, sleek and elegant. It really is a thin and also thin looking laptop and its cool white shell colour makes it look really modern and cool. This is my favourite colour for anything technical at the moment so perhaps my view is a little biased however I do think it really is a cool looking laptop. This can also be bought in a black colour like the picture shown on this site however I don’t like this colour as much.

The installed ram on this laptop is great, it has a massive 2gb which is the main reason this laptop runs so fast, also its intel core 2 duo T7700 which is one of the newest processors makes this laptop run so fast. Another thing to note is that this processor runs at speeds like 1.2 Ghz.

Most laptops this small only have about 40gb of ram and at the very most 80gb, and even the asus EEE pc just has 8 gb in the best edition you can get of it. This one however has a huge 100 gb of storage space for you to store all your data onto and all that work your doing when out and about.

And if the 2 gb isn't enough for you (although I cant see this amount ever not being big enough for you), then you can easily upgrade your ram to 4gb. This will just make everything even faster than it already is, so if you so really need your laptop to be a bit faster then you have got this option at a later date. This is really good because what tends to happen is that as your laptop gets older, and your add more programs and files, it eventually gets slower and slower, this is just something that happens, so having this extra 2gb of ram available to be installed into the laptop means that if it does start to run slower than you want it to, then you can easily have extra ram installed. A bad thing about this option though, is that it can be costly to do, especially if you cant do it your self and you might have to pay a computer technician to do the work for you.

Alrite now down to the laptops best features, which are its portability. The main reason why its so portable is its small size. This is good but it does mean you get a smaller screen size. Its still 11 inches though and although noticeably a lot smaller than other laptop screens it doesn’t take much getting used to and it just like using large screen in no time.

It also weighs just 1.2 kg which is quite frankly amazing, even though its only got an 11 inch screen its still extremely light and is around the same weight as the asus EEE pc which only has a 7 inch screen and is still a lot smaller than this laptop is.

But the best thing about it yet has to be its amazing battery life, its 7 hours is more than impressive and is the most iv certainly even seen in a laptop and also the most in any laptop iv ever seen before so like I say if you like your gadgets and you want the best laptop there is out there for portability then this is your best bet.

Its also got fantastic features too, with its built in 5 in 1 card reader which can read any of SD Memory Card, Memory Stick, Memory Stick PRO, Memory Stick Duo. And also its built in webcam which is only 0.3 mega pixel however its still pretty good quality and it saves you buying one and having to carry it about with you.

Now of course there is going to be a downside to this laptop somewhere, and yes you guessed it, once again it’s the price. And if you want to buy one of these beauties its gonna cost you around 1200 of your great British pounds. Which frankly isn’t worth it. If you’re a millionaire or just stinking rich then this would be something id go out and buy straight away however no matter how good it might be I just couldn’t fork out that kind of cash for this laptop.
