SONY VAIO T13: AFFORDABLE AND SEXY

    The first Sony Vaio ultrabook sports the kind of stylish, industrial-looking aluminium and magnesium alloy chassis you'd expect of the Vaio brand, and an eminently reasonable price that you possibly wouldn't.
    With a 13.3-inch screen, this weighs in at just 1.6kg and 17.8mm deep. However, like the HP it boasts only a Core i3 processor and 4GB of RAM. Storage is a literally mixed bag: you get a middling, 320GB HDD with a 32GB SSD for the OS meaning faster boot-up times. With passable battery life —Sony says seven hours, we got 212 minutes — this is a sound ultrabook.

A great looking, affordable, if underpowered Vaio
