The Sony VAIO E11 Series 11.6" Laptop (Sharkskin Black) delivers every day performance you need to stay connected and entertained while wrapped in a highly mobile design. Beautifully styled with a distinctive wrap design that is sure to turn heads, the VAIO E Series SVE11113FxB also offers a striking interior with a large clickable touchpad designed for a comfortable computing experience and an 11.6" display with a native 720p HD resolution and LED backlighting.
It is powered by a dual-core AMD E2-1800 accelerated processor (APU), which combines a CPU and a graphics processing unit (GPU) on a single chip, helping to accelerate daily applications while also delivering lower power consumption. The APU can quickly offload demanding tasks and applications from your CPU to the GPU, enabling you to do more with your computer in less time.
You can connect this VAIO to a compatible HDTV via the HDMI port to display your creations to a larger audience via a single cable. And the integrated camera with face-tracking technology and microphone makes it easy to video chat with family, friends and co-workers. This VAIO laptop comes with pre-installed 64-bit version of Microsoft Windows 7 Home Premium and it includes Microsoft Office Starter 2010 with limited-functionality versions of Word and Excel.
With Sony's Rapid Wake technology, you never have to shut down your computer again. Whether you are done working for the day or just heading out to get some coffee, simply close the lid to put your PC into sleep mode. Then, when you're ready to start again, resume in 2 seconds with your data safe and secure. If you are unplugged, don't worry about draining your battery. Your PC can stay in sleep mode for days.
The multi-gesture touchpad is the most intuitive way to interact with your laptop. Scroll with two fingers, pinch to zoom in and out of images, swipe to flip through pages or photos, rotate an image and much more. And rather than clicking on a button, just click on the left or right mouse areas in order to activate those functions.
The integrated stereo speakers utilize the Clear Phase and xLoudClear Phase technologies, which delivers a richer, bolder and louder presence. The xLoud technology enhances speaker volume without sacrificing quality. A built-in 1.3-megapixel HD web camera offers superb video conferencing quality. Powered by an Exmor sensor, this HD web camera offers amazing low-light performance and includes face tracking technology that allows the camera to automatically adjust and keep you in focus as you move about.
