Welcome to a laptop battery specialist of the Sony laptop battery
Earlier this year, Intel introduced the concept of “ultrabooks,” very thin, very light laptops with long battery life and prices below $1,000. Apple’s been making a thin-and-light laptop—the MacBook Air—for years. Two things would make ultrabooks truly innovative: a price well below $1,000 and 15-inch or larger thin laptops.
We’ve started to see a few of the latter, but nowhere near enough of the former. Toshiba hit a good price point with its 13-inch Portege Ultrabook. But we haven’t seen a lot of offerings yet that match that price.
According to Intel, more than 75 with battery such as Toshiba PA3250U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3356U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3291U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3506U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba PA3591U-1BRS Battery , Toshiba Portege 4000 Battery , Toshiba Satellite A10 Battery , Toshiba Satellite A100 Battery , Toshiba Satellite A70 Battery , Toshiba Satellite A75 Battery , Toshiba Tecra 8000 Battery , Toshiba Tecra 8100 Battery new ultrabooks are expected in the coming year. And they definitely dominated during CES. Here’s a look at a few ultrabooks we think you should keep on your radar, either because of price or interesting technology.
Vizio. TV manufacturer Vizio is looking to shake up the PC market with its entries into the ultrabook category (along with a desktop all-in-one). Although the company didn’t release a lot of details on its computing products, it did announce a 14- and 15-inch ultrabook. The 15-inch model is among the first of its size (Samsung added a 15-inch thin-and-light to its Series 9 line, but that’s not considered an ultrabook). Most exciting about Vizio’s announcement: We’re hoping its ultrabooks are priced like its TVs—as in bargains.
Dell XPS 13. Dell says its ultrabook has a 13-inch display in a 12-inch edge-to-edge glass frame. It weighs just a touch under 3 pounds, and is about a quarter inch thick at its thinnest point (and .7 inches at its thickest). It’s available with either a Core i5 or Core i7 processor, and comes with a 128- or 256GB solid-state drive. But it’s costly, starting at $1,000.
Samsung. This company had a hit with its Series 9 thin-and-light laptop. It was elegantly designed—and priced accordingly at well over $1,000. Now it’s adding a 13- and 14-inch ultrabook with the moniker Series 5. But even these are up in the high end, starting at $900.
Lenovo. With its U310 and U410 ultrabooks, Lenovo is hitting what we think is a sweet spot starting at $700. At 3.78 and 4.18 pounds, they’re not quite the featherweights of other ultrabooks we’ve seen.
