Overview

The Sony VAIO SVE11 are a series of low end notebooks released by Sony between June 2012 and February 2013, succeeding the VPCY series of laptops. With the SVE11, Sony dropped the Intel CPUs in favour of an AMD exclusive line-up, featuring the new AMD E2 APU. Earlier models shipped with Windows 7 however Sony would later release them with Windows 8.

Being the smallest of the E (SVE) Series, they have a 11.6" display with a 1366x768 resolution.

Made mostly of plastic and available in black, white, or pink, their strengths are their small form factor making them very portable machines, and their multi-touch touchpad.

Both of their available CPUs aren't powerful, however they are very power efficient so run cool and quiet with good battery life.
