Simple yet bold, the all new Z Series features a new fully flat design concept that 

abandons traditional bulky batteries, unnecessary seams and protruding ports. 

A seamless piece of brushed aluminum crafted to precise specifications, the Z 

Series delivers firm structural integrity.  The aluminum is then encased in a high 

grade carbon fiber matrix – the same material used to build formula 1 race cars – 

to add flexibility and durability without adding extra weight.

The battery of the Z Series is integrated into the PC and conforms to the contours 

of the chassis offering a thinner battery profile while still supplying up to 13 hours 

of battery life

. The all-new large capacity sheet battery leaves behind the 

traditional bulky and protruding long-life batteries of the past. Attaching directly 

to the standard capacity battery and by working in tandem with it, you’ll enjoy 

up to 13 hours of total combined battery life (with sheet battery) – helping to 

keep you unplugged longer

Dual channel SSD with RAID technology gets you superior performance and 

ample storage. RAID technology coordinates between the two solid state drives 

to keep them operating simultaneously at optimal speed.  The result is quicker 

boot-ups, faster application launches and overall enhanced performance.  

And of course, since SSD technology includes no moving parts, you get a more 

durable storage solution less prone to physical damage.

Developed by the same people you trust to engineer amazing flat-panel HDTV,  

this VAIO® PC features exceptional picture quality. Measuring 13.1" and sporting 

a cinema-inspired 16:9 aspect ratio, the 1920 x 1080 Full HD resolution widescreen 

display lets you view your games and movies in impeccable detail with 100% 

color saturation for the most vibrant and pure colors from virtually any angle. The 

LED backlight helps ensure a bright display with lower power consumption for 

improved battery life.

Practical innovation is a cornerstone of Sony’s vision, and our keyboards are no 

exception.  Designed for ease of use, the keyboard laptop features precisely 

engineered keys to create a comfortable and intuitive typing experience.  And 

to make it even easier to find the right keys – whether typing day or night, in the 

dark or light – an LED backlight creates a pleasant glow, framing the individual 

keys and illuminating the lettering.

Easy-to-use Mobile Broadband provides a secure connection to browse the 

Internet and check email when you’re away from the office. Connect without 

the need for a PC card, USB dongle or other accessory

.  It makes good 

financial sense to ditch the hotel network fees and leave behind unsecure Wi-Fi®  

hotspots. Plus, we offer you a choice of carriers.  And with Sony’s exclusive Share 

My Connection™ technology transform your PC into a mobile hotspot that can 

connect up to 5 PCs or other Wi-Fi® -enabled devices, such as smartphones, MP3 

players, and cameras.

Symantec™ VIP is a powerful layer of security that links your PC to the online 

account, VPN, or application that you select, decreasing the ability of thieves 

to access your accounts and information from another PC

. Available through 

select member websites, VIP helps ensure that only you can access your online 

accounts and websites. When you log into any of the hundreds of VIP member 

websites, you’re asked to provide a one-time password that’s automatically 

generated by Intel® Identity Protection Technology. Since the password is 

random, and you get a new one each time you visit, it’s virtually impossible for 

cybercriminals to hijack your online identity
