Pro 13
Summary
The Sony VAIO Pro 13 (SVP13) is a business-class ultrabook laptop computer that was released in 2013 by Sony. It is part of the last generation of VAIO laptops from Sony. An 11 inch version is also avaliable (see Pro 11).
It features a 4th Gen Haswell Intel Core i5 or i7 ULV processor, and Intel HD 4400 integrated graphics. RAM options ranged from 4GB to 8GB, and is soldered on the motherboard. There was two SSD options. A Samsung that runs on the PCIe interface, and a Toshiba that runs on the SATA 6GB/s interface. Both are of the M.2 NGFF form.
The case is made of flexible carbon fiber, which makes the laptop very light at only 1.066 kg (2.35 pounds). When the display is opened, the bottom half of the laptop gets slightly elevated, which makes for an more comfortable typing experience. It was avaliable in black, silver and glossy red.
The display on this ultrabook was one of it's selling points, a Sony Triluminos 1080p IPS panel with 10 finger multi touch support.

Daily Usage Today
This device is still very usable today. It can watch 1440p60 YouTube videos with minimal frame drops, and 1080p60 with minimal problems. The fast SSD makes for a very snappy experience overall. It can run non-resource-intensive games at a reasonable frame rate. This comes at a cost, fan noise, it can get pretty loud even on light loads.
The atrocity that is Windows 11 runs completely fine on this device.
