In the world of laptops, skinny is in (maybe Karl Lagerfeld had something to do with this direction); laptops continue to ‘lose weight’ and the Sony X Series notebooks, which were revealed in Singapore last week, are currently the skinniest on the market.
According to The Luxury Insider, the Sony X Series laptop measures 13.9 mm, which is slightly thicker than the iPhone and slimmer than the MacBook Air and HP Envy 13 by about one-third. Not only is it slim, the Sony X Series PC also boasts the aesthetic appeal of which the brand is known for: excellet durability (the laptop can withstand prolonged pressure-vibration) and excellent processing capabilities like a 2GHz Intel Atom Processor Z550, solid state drive, and the new Windows 7 Operating System.
