High ranger portable of the E (SVE) series, they have a 17.3" display with 1600x900 or 1920x1080 resolution.

Made mostly of magnesium alloy or aluminum for high-end models, or plastic for lower-end models, and available in combinations of white, grey, and black, their strengths are the i5 or even i7 CPU installed as optional and the good quality display.

It was highly customisable, Sony made many versions of this laptop.

They were shipped with the Imagination Studio Software that gave some basic video editing capabilities.

Daily Usage Today

This device is still usable for basic tasks like web browsing and text editing today.

The versions with i3, i5, and especially the i7 (even more the quad core version) can be used for a more advanced use, like medium graphical intense games and semi-professional photo or video editing.

We recommend upgrading the RAM to 8 GB (if not already equipped) and to switch the mechanical hard drive to an SSD, if it isn't already installed as default in your model.

This device will fully work on Windows 11 with proper drivers.
