Made mostly of plastic and available in white or black, they are quite rare because some versions were sold exclusively in Japan, and they were equipped with AMD CPUs that were considered as below the average between mid-range notebooks.
On the other hand, their best strength is the ATI GPUs, and top model VPCEEs would be equipped with an ATI Radeon HD 5145 as well as a Blu-Ray drive.

Daily Usage Today
This device may be slow today, because of its CPU. It is still usable for basic tasks like web browsing and text editing.
It is not advised for gaming.
We recommend upgrading the RAM to 8 GB and to switch the mechanical hard drive to an SSD.
This device will work on Windows 11 with proper drivers, however the upgrade is not recommended, because of its low performance CPU.
Downloads
Follow our guide to download and install the drivers (as Sony removed Windows 7 drivers and older).
