Sony VAIO VPC-W211AX/P 10-Inch Pink Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life Review

I bought this netbook for my wife and the two deciding factors were the high-resolution screen (1366×768) and its build quality. I checked out a lot of other netbooks and most have lower resolution screens and are built with too much plastic that makes them feel cheap. This Vaio is solid - it feels like a mini version of Apple’s classic 12″ Powerbook (without the heft). The screen is also fantastic in its brightness and clarity. It’s perfect for movie viewing, web browsing and even book reading. The clarity makes reading a Kindle book a breeze even though horizontal mode isn’t the ideal way to read an electronic book. The sound is excellent when using headphones but the built-in speakers are worthless, which seems to be typical of most notebook computers.

Sony VAIO VPC-W212AX/WI 10-Inch White Netbook - Up to 8 Hours of Battery Life Review

this is my 5th vaio. last week i had the 211 which unfortunately for me i got the defective wifi so had to send it back, spend extra i shouldn’t have to spend but amazon customer service is the best always! so i got this instead & i couldn’t be more happier. the size, the color (love the light green shade on the keyboard), the weight, and even the little brown bag that comes with it. it could’ve been perfect except for the large capacity battery. when it’s just sitting on my desk it doesn’t bother me but when i put it in my vaio case to take out, i really don’t like the bulging battery. i wish it is an option to buy a standard one & a large capacity. i don’t care much for the 8 hour battery life. this vaio reminds me of my TR except with the TR it has the cdrom. the windows starter i don’t mind much, will upgrade eventually. also the memory. however, i am going to get the standard battery asap if i could find one. sony website doesn’t have it anymore.

Sony VAIO VPC-W111XX/P 10.1-Inch Pink Netbook - 2.5+ Hour Battery Life Review

this netbook is definitely something we purchased for plenty of reasons. one was cause its a Sony. Secondly it works well over wireless with the playstation and the screen size and resolution is far superior than other netbooks on the market.

it’s definitely more expensive than the other netbooks but its definitely worth it!!!

Sony VAIO VPC-W121AX/T 10.1-Inch Brown Netbook - Up to 7 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

I am very satisfied with my W Series netbook. I was aware of the criticisms posted by some other reviewers. The netbook works fine for me. The profile photo on Amazon clearly shows the battery unlike some other sites. It doesn’t bother me at all. It tilts the netbook at a nice angle, and it keeps the netbook cooler. The fan is not that loud. The display is great! The high resolution images are superb. If you are far-sighted, you might want something else. I like the clarity of the images. The right shift key is small, but I have adjusted. The keyboard feels nice and I can type fairly rapidly. I bought it for reading email, surfing the web, and working on basic Office documents. It does all of these things well. There are cheaper products, but I like the Sony quality and reliability. I recommend this netbook.
