These days, I use a Samsung Series 9 (13вЂќ) and a Macbook Pro 15вЂќ. In terms of efficiency, I found it easy and fast to type with the Sony Vaio S keyboard. to be honest, I found it a bit weird that everything is off-centered to the left, but after a couple of days, I got used to it, and I am now enjoying the convenience of the numeric keypad, which is great when I write code. Now, only the arrow keys remain smaller than on a вЂњdesktopвЂќ keyboard. This is really great for those who have to type a lot of numbers, or have simply gotten used to having one. Keyboard (backlit): Because the 15вЂќ Vaio S is wide enough, Sony has decided to include a full-size numeric keypad. There are no ports in the back, and the front only has a WiFi ON/OFF swith, along with the battery charge and the HDD indicators. The side left holds the optical drive, with options that go from DVD burner to Blur-Ray burner. On the right side, there are plenty of ports: just look at the list: Memory Stick, SD, Ethernet, VGA, HDMI, USB 3.0, 2x USB 2.0 and power input (phew). At 4.4lbs, this 15вЂќ Vaio S weighs just a little less than Macbook Pro 13вЂќ, and you can opt to double the battery life by adding a 1.33lbs sheet battery (which obviously adds to the thickness of the computer). ThatвЂ™s not the only good news: it is also lighter than it looks. The Sony Vaio S 15вЂќ has a distinct Sony Vaio look but a closer look reveals a 0.97вЂќ profile that is thinner than you may have been used to in the past for the 15вЂќ Vaio line. In this review, I will tell you how it felt to be using SonyвЂ™s latest 15вЂќ computerвЂ¦ the good and the bad. On our test, this Vaio S performed well, and depending on your particular needs, this may be a laptop that can go head to head, and beat the Macbook Pro 15 вЂ“ not in terms of design, but in terms of productivity, weight and features. We have tried the Sony Vaio S in its 15вЂќ version, which we think is a great form factor for a high-performance productivity system. It it most definitely a very hard goal, and it is fair to say that Sony took a very good shot at it.

Sony has refreshed its Vaio S line of laptops, and the overall goal was to build a powerful computer that was also as portable as possible.
