Sony VAIO T13 alternatives

Information from 07 May 2012.

The Sony VAIO T13 (SVT1311W1E) was one of the first Ivy Bridge based Ultrabooks with the new Intel HD 4000 integrated Graphics chip. It comes like its sister models with 4GB RAM, Wi-Fi b/g/n, Bluetooth 4.0 + HS and a 13.3" display with a resolution of 1366x768. Unlike its sister models it doesn't come with a hybrid HDD/SSD but a true 128GB SSD.

Sony is pushing a 9hr battery life for a T13 SSD / Core i5 model which, given the weight of 1.5KG (1.6KG for hybrid model) means there could be an HP Folio-like battery setup inside.

The Macbook Air 2015 brings with it Broadwell cpus to replace the Haswells but it has an Intel HD 6000 gpu instead of the 5000 series. It will be competing with the likes of Dells XPS 13 and Toshiba's KIRA 10 series among several others.

The X1 Carbon is an ultraportable device with a base made of magnesium and aluminum. The display (IPS) cover uses carbon-fibre and glass-fibre reinforced plastic, and the hinges are reinforced with carbon fibre. More tough than classy. The keyboard and touchpad have been revised from the previous model. It's reasonably thin and light especially for a 14 inch laptop, a choice from a powerful set of Broadwell ULV cpu's can be chosen, up to 8GB RAM and various serial ATA storage up to 512GB. OneLink dock and Gigabit ethernet ports included.
Toshiba CB30-B-104, 13.3 inch, 1350 grams (2.98 lbs)
This Toshiba CB30 Chromebook model has a full HD IPS screen and its weight is ok for a 13.3 inch laptop but it's price may not be.

The Envy laptop is HPs thinnest one ever at 12.95mm in an all metal body but you will still get high performance with 6th generation Core i processors and 8GB RAM. HP on their website compare this to the Apple Macbook Air 13 which suggests better cpu, ram and price and of course thinness! 12.95mm v 17mm
