Sony Vaio Pro 11 lands for Php109,000

Listen to article

Announced back in June, the Sony Vaio Pro 11 has debuted in the Philippines with a retail price just a little under Php110,000 (with the bumped up configuration).

The VAIO Pro 11 is designed with a uni-direction carbon fibre body, an 11.6-inch full HD touch screen display coupled with Trilominos and X-Reality technologies developed by Sony. This is also among the first ultrabooks that come with built-in NFC.

Im reading a lot of strong reactions here and I agree. There are better models that gives you plenty of bang for the buck.

I wouldn’t touch a Sony with a 10 foot pole. They’re an overpriced former juggernaut now sitting in the sidelines.

I formerly owned an Alienware M11X that cost 79K at Villman.
I got the same exact thing with the same exact specs and the same warranty for 45K at Gilmore…

As they say, Shabu pa Villman.

Grabe, this is overpriced Villman. I wonder how Sony will price it officially. For that price, you can already get a Mac book pro w/ discrete graphics, or a Razer or MSI gaming laptop with a cheaper price.

Is this a joke??? I wouldn’t swap this over my samsung series 5 NP550P5C. My laptop would leave this thing in the dust and its half the price. Sony can’t be serious about the price !

Sony and Apple is more like an over rated brand,dont get me wrong i dont mind both brands but when it comes to pricing versus specs I think you know what Im talking about. Peace

You do realize this has PCIe SSD which mean faster read and write speeds, right? Although the price is really atrocious. But performance wise? I would not really say your samsung can leave this thing to dust. :)

Physically, it looks the same with my Sony Vaio T, but internally, it’s way better.

And at that, confused na confused si villman sa pricing nila… kasi pareho pricing ng 11 inch sa 13 inch na model…

http://www.villman.com/Category-Brand/Notebook-PCs/Sony

As of now (July 3, 2pm) pareho silang 109k… siguro dapat may mag verify…

Are they having a laugh? With that price, you can get a Retina MacBook Pro. You’ll get OS X + Windows, a higher resolution display and double the memory.

High-resolution screens are a waste if it’s less than 13 inch. Yeah the pictures look crisp and sharp, but without the benefits of having a realstate to work upon.

Even if I look at it as a light-use computer, it’s specs are an overkill for your email reading and web surfing (which tablets can already do). Too small for spreadsheets and writing applications. And gaming is out of the question.
