Testberichte für das Sony Vaio VPC-X

Let’s just throw it out there: With performance right on par with netbooks that cost a quarter of what it does, the Vaio X is an atrocious value. But that truly doesn’t do this magnificent machine justice. You will get a stupid grin on your face the first time you handle it. It defies all expectations of what a working laptop can look and feel like. Even after using it for hours, we returned to it to marvel anew at the size and build quality.

Sonys Vaio X wiegt trotz hochauflösendem 11,1-Zoll-Screen keine 800 Gramm und ist nur 1,4 Zentimeter hoch. ZDNet hat getestet, welche Kompromisse diese Traummaße erfordern und was es bei der Arbeit in der Praxis leistet. Das Sony Vaio X fasziniert mit geringen Abmessungen, niedrigem Gewicht und schickem Design. Dafür muss man mit einem Preis von 1500 Euro aber sehr tief in die Tasche greifen - und erhält unter dem Strich doch nur Netbook-Performance. Rationell spricht für den Kauf des Geräts nichts - aber das muss ja nicht immer der Maßstab sein.

EN→DEAt Rs. 84,900, the Sony VAIO X is one seriously high-profile netbook. Right from its sexy form factor, the VAIO X exudes the air and elegance of a premium, lifestyle product. It doesn't perform as well as a high-end ultraportable, but keep in mind this is no normal ultraportable. However hard we try, we can't run away from the fact that the VAIO X is a rather expensive netbook in an astonishingly elegant shell. Highly recommended to jet-setters looking for a super-slim laptop or anyone who wants to distinguish themselves from the rest of the ultraportable, mini-laptop crowd.

EN→DESony discovered it had a major problem when the first round of netbooks hit the market in late 2007. If size - or looks - mean a lot then we can't argue: the X series is jaw dropping. But mere good looks, unbolstered by good value or above par performance, can't take the unwelcome focus off that astronomical price.

EN→DESony's Vaio X Series is one of the new breed of laptops that pushes the definition of ultra-thin to new limits. Sony's Vaio X Series is incredibly thin and light and, with a better battery life than we expected, seems an ideal machine for those who need to carry a laptop around with them. However, this model is pricey even by Sony Vaio standards, and buyers would be advised to treat it with care as we have doubts about the system's robustness.

EN→DESony's Vaio X Series is one of the new breed of laptops that pushes the definition of ultra-thin to new limits. Although not the absolute thinnest available, this new Vaio is also compact and lightweight, making it a desirable, if pricey, mobile client for the executive traveller.

EN→DEThis is a laptop that divides opinion almost like no other. Some accuse it of being a glorified, overpriced netbook. Others simply pick it up and swoon. No-one can argue with the VAIO's design credentials. The real problem for the X-Series is its price. It includes a solid state disk, inevitably adding to the cost, and Sony must recoup some of its substantial R&D outlay. Who, though, can lavish $1899 on a vanity laptop such as this? Very few. This exclusivity may well end up adding to the X-Series' allure, and if you buy one expect admiring glances from all who see it. Just don't tell them there's an Atom inside..

EN→DEOverall, the Sony VAIO X Series exudes sex appeal. However, if you plan on actually using it, the netbook becomes less attractive. The keyboard leaves something to be desired; after about 4 hours of typing, I am starting to get used to it, but I'm also starting to understand what carpal tunnel syndrome feels like. So if you've got small hands and need something to last for an entire intercontinental flight, you're in luck. But it'll cost you.

EN→DELet's face the facts:- Sony's VAIO X is a marvel of engineering; it's a netbook done well with plenty to drool over. You can't help but drop your jaws at the design and form factor. We've not seen a netbook this thin ever, so design wise, the VAIO X does score mightily in our hearts. Furthermore, the bright LED-backlit screen can't help but light up your eyes when you look into the screen. Sadly though, the chiclet keyboard could have been made bigger given the ample real estate space but we reckon that this is could be the byproduct of space constraints under the hood.

EN→DEThe netbook has all but put paid to the need for an expensive ultraportable if you need laptop to take everywhere, but few models are that much to look at. ASUS certainly made an impression with its S101 and Seashell Eee PCs, but Sony created the biggest splash with its featherweight VAIO P Series. Sadly, that netbook was simply too small to be used properly, so now it’s trying again with something of more sensible proportions. The VAIO X Series is a stunning example of Sony’s manufacturing prowess, but there’s just no getting away from the fact that’s it’s really just a fantastically expensive netbook.

EN→DEThe thinnest, lightest, and most expensive netbook also lasts nearly 10 hours on a charge.
Sony’s VAIO X is so light and stylish, this product is practically in a class by itself. For $1,499, you’re getting a system that not only lasts longer than all other netbooks, but it sets a new standard for portability. Additionally, the built-in 3G and GPS ensures that users will be connected wherever they go. However, for an 11-inch system, we were disappointed in this machine’s small keyboard and Touchpad. If you have the cash, the VAIO X’s industrial design will definitely turn heads, but you’ll sacrifice ergonomic comfort.

EN→DET3 felt it was an amazing bit of engineering married with a graceful design. It wasn’t all roses though as the thin frame is subject to flex and the keys on the keyboard have very little travel, along with the mouse buttons. The 2GHz Z550 Atom processor is good enough for most Office tasks. However, with an excellent 11.1-inch display and a premium carbon fibre shell you’d certainly have bragging rights by carrying this under your arm. Check out the key review points after the jump.

EN→DEAs soon as you set eyes on the X Series, it’s impossible not to be blown away by just how small it is. It’s a genuinely amazing piece of engineering, backed by a svelte design, and it’s the ultimate laptop for business users who value tiny dimensions and the lowest weight possible. That said, if you don’t mind carrying around a bit of extra weight, Apple’s MacBook Air and Sony’s VAIO Z-series are better all-round propositions.

EN→DEThis is a must-own Vaio, the best we've ever seen from Sony. It's attractive, light weight and easy to travel with, whether for business or for pleasure. It is the ultimate ultraportable, a notebook of such lightweight description - we're just waiting for the competition to grab their tongues and try and make something that comes close. Sure, it's not a gaming machine - but it will please most others.

Others pick it up and swoon. "It's so light! It's so gorgeous! I want one." A stunning piece of design matched by excellent battery life, and despite the Atom inside it can cope with everyday tasks. But Sony struggles to justify that price.

EN→DESony is not new to the "sexy first" approach. Early this year, the company introduced its VAIO P-Series LifeStyle PC, which wasn’t a critical success because of its steep price and poor performance (as well as possibly, its odd form factor, which took some getting used to). Its newly released $1,299 X-Series is a stunner at a slightly lower price. The X-Series (VPCX111KX/B is the exact model number) delivers slightly better performance, but it’s not a powerhouse, by a long shot. It’s a sexy tech showcase and light as a feather, but Sony’s $1,299 netbook is an executive toy, not a practical PC for the price.

Intel Graphics Media Accelerator (GMA) 500: Integrierter (onboard) Grafikchip auf UL11L, US15L, US15W Chipsatz mit lizensiertem PowerVR SGX Kern. Trotz DirectX 10.1 Unterstützung durch die geringen Taktraten (100-200 MHz je nach UL11L - US15L/W) nicht spielfähig. Integrierter Video Decoder für MPEG-2, VC-1, AVC.
Viele Spiele sind mit diesen Karten nicht (kaum) lauffähig oder laufen nur sehr langsam. Für Spieler nicht geeignet! Office Programme und Internet surfen dürfte jedoch ohne Problem laufen.

Intel Atom: Die Intel Atom Serie besteht aus 64-Bit Mikroprozessoren für günstige und stromsparende Notebooks, MIDs oder UMPC. Besonderheit der Architektur, ist das die Befehle nicht wie derzeit üblich (z. B. Intel Core Architekture oder AMD Turion) "out of Order" sondern "in Order" ausgeführt werden. Dadurch verliert man zwar einiges an Performance, jedoch spart dies Transistoren und daher Kosten und dadurch auch etwas Strom.

11.1": Es handelt sich um ein relativ kleines Displayformat für Subnotebooks, das auch nicht sehr oft verwendet wird. Netbooks dagegen haben noch kleinere Displays. Der Vorteil von Subnotebooks liegt darin, dass das ganze Notebook klein dimensioniert sein kann und daher leicht tragbar ist. Der kleine Display hat noch den Vorteil wenig Strom zu benötigen, was die Akkulaufzeit und damit die Mobilität weiter verbessert. Der Nachteil ist, dass das Lesen von Texten etwas anstrengend für die Augen ist. Hohe Auflösungen sind nur bedingt nutzbar.

0.7 kg: Dieses Subnotebook/Netbook/UMPC, sofern man es als solches überhaupt bezeichnen kann, gehört zu den leichtesten Notebooks überhaupt und kann klarerweise hervorragend getragen werden. Es gibt kaum Sub-Notebooks, aber ein paar Netbooks in dieser extremen Gewichtsklasse. 7-9 Zoll Displays passen in diesen Gewichtsbereich.
Sony: Die Sony Corporation ist der zweitgrößte japanische Elektronikkonzern mit Sitz in Tokio. Kerngeschäft ist die Unterhaltungselektronik. Das Unternehmen wurde 1946 unter anderem Namen gegründet und produzierte anfangs Reiskocher. Das Unternehmen brachte das erste Transistorenradio auf den Markt. 1958 wurde die Firma in Sony umbenannt. Sony ist eine Kombination aus dem lateinischen Wort sonus (Klang) und dem englischen Wort sonny (kleiner Junge). Sony ist ein Notebook-Hersteller mittlerer Grösse hinsichtlich internationaler Marktanteile.

69.67%: Diese Bewertung ist schlecht. Die meisten Notebooks werden besser beurteilt. Als Kaufempfehlung darf man das nicht sehen. Auch wenn Verbalbewertungen in diesem Bereich gar nicht so schlecht klingen, meist sind es Euphemismen.
