The Sony Vaio Pro 13 is available at an MRP of Rs. 74,990 which may feel steep for a Core i5 system, but we feel it's a decent price point considering what is on offer: fast performance, great battery life, light weight, responsive keyboard and touchscre...
Abstract: What these laptops have in common are microprocessors that belong to a new family of Intel chips called Haswell. The chips consume less power than previous generations and promise a 50 percent boost in battery life for watching video. The improvements ext...

Probably not. But if you do, hell, youll probably enjoy it. The thing is theres nothing flatly wrong with the Vaio Pro, and a whole lot right. And if its super lightweight frame is enough to sway you-if you were born with hollow bones and can literally...

The Sony VAIO Pro 13 is one of the first Intel Haswell Ultrabooks made available in the market and the size and weight made it really appealing for those looking after ultra-portability. What we don't particularly like is the shallow keyboard, the soft sp...
