The Sony VAIO VPCS13AFJ S-Series Laptop is a quintessential premium mini-notebook manufactured by Sony Corporation of Japan for mobile and home users.
One of the few early Sony laptops that features a hot-swappable processor socket, allowing for the onboard mobile processor to be swapped across different line-ups and generations of Intel microprocessors. This specific model supports all mobile Intel processors that work with the G1 Socket which includes the Intel Core processor line-up (Core i3/i5/i7) as well as Intel Celeron and Intel Pentium branded processors – making this a perfect machine for digital tinkerers and tech enthusiasts.
Featuring all major technologies of the decade, Sony packed the VAIO VPCS13AFJ with a plethora of ports ensuring connectivity across a wide spectrum of domains. The VAIO S-Series features 3 USB 2.0 A-Type ports, a Firewire port, 2 independent audio jacks, an ExpressCard /34 Slot for expansion, a FeliCA 2.0 Reader for managing RFID and NFC connections, a Fingerprint Reader, an interactive Sony MOTION-EYE Web Camera, an SDHC card reader and a Sony Memory Stick Slot, an IR transmission port, HDMI, VGA, LAN, and a TPM. Wireless connectivity is afforded by Bluetooth, Wireless LAN, and WiMAX cards.
An upgradeable onboard Intel Core i5-460M Dual Core processor allows you to perform most demanding tasks with ease coupled with the 8 GB of onboard system memory. The VAIO features 2 graphics cards – onboard Intel HD graphics with 4 GB of shared memory and an NVIDIA 310M discrete GPU with 512 MB of dedicated memory and CUDA technology. Both GPUs are connected to the Sony 13.3” HD IPS screen.
The VAIO also features a docking port connector that allows the laptop to interface with an external Sony Dock that has an ATI RADEON 5850 GPU with 2+6 GB of memory. This makes the VAIO the only mainstream mini-laptop that features various graphics cards from all 3 GPU manufacturers of the time – ATI, Intel, and NVIDIA.
