Sony VAIO F





A high-performance multimedia notebook that meets developed it do the most Sony is the VAIO F.

The Sony VAIO F is a high end multimedia notebook. Our powerhouse Tester has an Intel Core i7 quad-core processor and NVIDIA GT 425 M graphics card. What is wrong with him? Read our review.
Our review unit Sony Vaio F (vpcf136fm) has the following specifications: glossy 16-inch 900 p (1600 x 900) display with LED BacklightingWindows 7 Home Premium 64-BitIntel core i7 quad-core processor 740QM (1.73 GHz ~ 2.93 GHz turbo boost, 6 MB L3, 2.5GT / s QPI, 45W TDP) Intel where ChipsetNvidia graphics6GB GeForce GT 425 1 GB dual-channel DDR3-1333 RAM (x 1 x 4-Executive 2 GB) 640 GB 5400 RPM Toshiba hard drive (MK6465GSXN) Intel ® Centrino ™ advanced M 6250 AGN wireless LANInternal BluetoothBlu-Ray reader (PIONEER BD-ROM BDC-TD03) internal backlit keyboard with separate numeric KeypadWeight: 7.07 lbs.Size: 15.69 x 1.34 ~ 1.79 x 10.69 InchesMSRP: $1299 (starting price: $869)


The specifications set in any case our Sony VAIO F in the top percentile for performance vs. the most 15.6/16/17.3-inch notebooks on the market. The GT 425 M graphics card has enough performance for the latest games. The only exception to the rule is Pokey the hard drive rather 5400 u/min; a 7,200 u/min model standard should be based on a performance-oriented notebook.

Build and design

The Sony VAIO F has a usual look; the only notable physical features are the backlit keyboard and the green power button on the right side of the notebook. The f is all plastic and not otherwise provide. An all plastic construction is a bad thing that feels Sony VAIO F but not necessarily quite robust, if somewhat hollow. Access the chassis at the corners and twist produces minimal movement in the case, which is what I like to see; This prevents the turn internal circuit boards.

The display helps easily if twisted from the corners. No waves appear on the screen, when pressure is from the back, there is a reasonable amount of protection specifies. There are a number of buttons above the keyboard; my favorite is the “View route” button, the path of and the display is immediately activated. The Sony VAIO F missing control is volume buttons, strange that multimedia the focus of this machine.

Those who upgrade the Sony VAIO F find it relatively easy to do; There are separate compartments on the bottom for the RAM and hard drive. Both RAM slots are occupied in our test notebook.
