Sony has added one more team to its line of convertibles and hybrids Windows 8.1. At CES 2014, he brought an 11-inch version of his convertible laptop into a tablet using a kind of hinge to flip. The Sony Vaio Flip 11A It is a smaller and cheaper version than the 13-inch model that has been on the market for some time and caused such a good impression among consumers.
This model may correct the failure of the Vaio Tap 11, which tested a hybrid model with a dockable keyboard but had the problem precisely in its design of the magnetic hinges that allowed it. These were not strong enough and sometimes the keyboard would disassemble unexpectedly.
If you do not know how this line of products works, we can summarize that its backlit keyboard is always attached but that we can hide it by folding the screen back thanks to a wide hinge behind it that gives us three positions: laptop, viewer and tablet.
La 11 inch of this Vaio Fit 11A Flip PC (yes, that's its name, even if no one uses it in this product line) has a resolution of Full HD 1920 x 1080 pixels. It also makes use of Triluminos technology like almost all the latest high-end devices from the Japanese. Your processor will be Intel Pentium Quad Core It will come with different RAM configurations. This aspect may be a bit negative, but in a way it explains why it is going to be the cheapest of the line, although in the more expensive models we can choose an Intel Core i7 processor for considerably more money. To compensate for slower processors, you will have internal storage SSD, which will give you a little more speed.
It will also have a stylus, the Vaio Active Pen, which we can make good use of with the package Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 pre-installed.
This convertible will bring an antenna WiFi acsomething that almost all convertibles in the Duo, Tap and Flip lines will receive with a new version in the spring.
It will weigh 1,28 Kg All in all, a lightweight for ultrabooks. Its price will start at $ 799, a far cry from the $ 1.099 for the cheapest 13-inch model in the Flip PC line.
