Custom Laptops from Sony VAIO

The Sony VAIO Z Series represents the higher end of the VAIO range; first released in 2008 it has been an impressive addition to the VAIO family. Being extremely small as well as light it is marketed towards business users although leisure users that want a high performance laptop are equally well catered for.

For some time Sony has been offering the option to build your own laptop and the Z Series has also received the customisable treatment. Customers are given a range of choices when it comes to configuring their VAIO.

Technical options include a choice of processor, a range of hard drive sizes (in the Sony VAIO Z (V) Series these include hard discs of 320GB or 500GB storage whilst the Sony VAIO Z (X) Series offers solid state drives ranging from 128GB to 512GB of storage). Customers can also add more memory, choose to have a Blu-ray optical drive installed and add Wireless WAN for seamless connectivity. Finally, a choice of screens allowing customers to showcase High Definition media are included, customers can select either a 1600×900 pixel screen or the premium HD1080 screen that utilises 1920×1080 pixels.

It is not just technical aspects that can be included in the custom options for the VAIO Z. Particularly for business users, fingerprint recognition can be added to ensure that sensitive material is kept confidential and leisure customers can choose between a range of colours which include Carbon and Silver (all with a backlit keyboard).

Whilst the VAIO Z is one of the more premium Sony VAIO models, the chance to create custom laptops that include everything that a business or leisure user should ever need is likely to be a powerful lure for those who want control over the construction of their VAIO machine.

Custom Laptops from Sony VAIO

Regular readers will have seen the latest Sony E series VAIO notebooks that come in a range of funky colour combinations in a previous post. Now it seems that Sony is going to offer customers the chance to create their very own custom laptop, with a range of different modification options available on selected series’.

Labelled as “VAIO by you” custom options are available on CW, FW, SR, X, TT and Z series laptops to name a few. One of these options is laser engraving, customers will be able to personalise their VAIO notebook with a special message. Sony technicians will then etch a personal message onto the laptop, perfect for those who want a long lasting custom look that provides that truly individual touch.

As well as engraving, customers have a range of options including hardware and software variants. As a customer it will be possible to select from a range of different colours, from the regulation blacks through to soft pastels and more outlandish shades. For some models there are even options to have special finishes and different coloured lids. For those with a penchant for individualism, the CW series comes in light blue and yellow, colours exclusively available direct from Sony

Customers are also given the option to change hardware such as the hard drive and memory. Additionally customers can choose between DVD, Blu-ray player and Blu-ray writer optical drives as well as screen options to ensure your High Definition media is faithfully reproduced. Finally customers can decide on a range of software inclusions from Microsoft Office and MacAfee Anti Virus through to Adobe Creation and Photoshop Lightroom.

With so many options, from aesthetic considerations through to the physical make up of custom VAIO laptops, Sony seems to have realised that personal flair plays as much a part in the buying process as technical specifications.
