Design Sony sells the VPCCW15FG in three colours. The black model looks pretty much like any other notebook, and not surprisingly, there's a hint of MacBook in the white model. The pink version manages to just about out-pink any note...

Sony's latest vibrant Vaio has plenty of grunt, but nowhere near enough power.

Given its portable dimensions, it's something of a shame that the VPCCW1S1E doesn't offer more in the way of battery life. Aside from this, there's very little wrong with Sony's latest VAIO. It's reasonably powerful, capable of handling the latest 3D...

Sony’s Vaio laptops aren’t perhaps best-known for their good value, but with an Intel Core 2 Duo P7450, Nvidia GeForce 230M graphics and a £699 price tag, this latest model seems to buck the trend. Sony’s VPCCW1S1E: terrible name, terrific looks Part o...

Minor niggles aside, if you’re looking for a compact laptop that’s not short in the performance department, the VPCCW1S1E certainly delivers the goods. Its mediocre battery life is a shame and may be enough to dissuade more than a few potentia...

If there is one overwhelming opinion about the Sony VAIO CW Series (VPCCW15FGW) notebook at PC World, it's that it should not be available in pink. Everyone who saw it in our Test Centre despised the colour, wishing instead for black or white (or even the champagne colour that adorns part of the base). The good news is that the CW Series is available in black or white and it's a fine notebook with plenty to offer. ConfigurationThe Sony VAIO CW Series (VPCCW15FGW) is a 2.4kg, 14in notebook wi...

Plenty of manufacturers offer their laptops in a range of colours, but Sony has been at it for longer than most. One can trace this all the way back to the C Series in February 2007, which was replaced by the CR Series in August that year and then the CS...

Sony’s VAIO CW1S1E sits smack in the middle of the company’s laptop range, offering impressive value for money without compromising on features or style. With a 14-inch screen and weighing 2.3kg, it’s slightly larger than Sony’s ultra-portable laptops...

One of the premiere notebooks that tend to go unnoticed is the Sony VAIO CW Series VPCCW13FX/B Notebook PC, which surprisingly exceeds expectations on all points. If you like features like one-touch Web access, powerful computing, and casual gaming, th...

For the price, this notebook is certainly hard to beat. It is considered "mid-range" in the VAIO series, but the features and performance it provides suggests otherwise. The graphics card is substandard, so you shouldn't plan to do any heavy gaming. Ne...
