Sony VAIO E, Sony’s most powerful and affordable at 14-inch

The Sony VAIO E was released last summer along with the other new Sony VAIOs. There’s an ongoing (but almost over) ad-creation contest by Sony and we’re getting a number of searches on this 14-inch laptop which will be given as the price.

The Vaio E 2011 is Sony’s most powerful at the most affordable price positioning yet. This 14-inch laptop comes with either the 2nd generation Intel Core i3 or Core i5 is priced at P36,999 and P49,999 respectively. Not bad at all considering it’s a VAIO and most mainstream VAIOs previously are priced much higher.

“œWith the new VAIO E series, Sony is giving better features at a lower price range so we can reach out to more Filipinos,” said Mr. Yung Yap, Director for IT Channel Sales, Sony Philippines, “œThe VAIO E is great for students and first time owners of laptops as not only is it more affordable than before, but it also has powerful specs that can be a great help in their everyday tasks in school or work. Design-wise, you may also match your personality with the four great colors offered."

The Core i5 version comes with an NVIDIA GeForce 410M switchable graphics while the Core i3 has the integrated Intel HD Graphics 3000. The Core i5 model also has 4GB RAM and 500GB HDD as opposed to 2GB RAM and 320GB HDD of the Core i3.

What sets thid Sony VAIO E apart from other 14-inch notebooks out there is its gorgeous looks. It has a 3D truss pattern covering the exterior and the palm rest making it a fashion statement and at the same time conceals those ugly smudges and fingerprints. Let’s also not forget the beautiful chiclet keyboard Sony is known for.

So whoever will win Sony’s VAIO E ad contest will definitely enjoy this notebook. For those who weren’t able to join, there’s still the option of getting one from stores. 🙂
