SAN DIEGO - With a continued commitment to portability, performance and multimedia entertainment wrapped in a premium design, Sony Electronics today announced the VAIO® C Series – an exclusive line of laptops. A second generation Intel® Core™ i5 processor, Blu-ray Disc™ drive (select models), and AMD Radeon™ 1GB Hybrid Graphics card (select models) give you visibly smart performance and amazing picture quality all in a unique design.

“The new VAIO C Series delivers an extraordinary design with new, vivid materials,” said Mike Lucas, senior vice president of the Networked Technologies and Services Division at Sony Electronics. “Combined with premium performance and features, as well as enhanced with Sony Imagination Studio, C Series users can be entertained and show off their creative side.”

Let There Be Light

The exclusive one-of-a-kind design of the all new VAIO C Series in lively Neon Orange and Neon Green collects and radiates light around the edges of the laptop, through the VAIO logo, and even around the touchpad emitting a beautiful glow. Also available in Lightning White and Bolt Black, the C Series has a distinctive, appealing pattern that hints at the sophistication and powerful technology on the inside.



Available exclusively through select retailers in two screen sizes, the CA10 features a 14-inch LED backlit LCD widescreen display and the CB10 features a 15.5-inch LED backlit LCD widescreen display for improved power efficiency and greater contrast, with the option of a Full HD 1080p screen.

Ultimate Performance

Performance is top priority with the second generation Intel Core i5 processor that delivers even more performance automatically when you need it with a better visual PC experience built-in. With Intel Turbo Boost Technology 2.0, the second generation Intel Core i5 processor increases speed automatically for whatever you’re doing on your PC and provides a rich set of new features for a stunning and seamless visual PC experience.

AMD Radeon HD 6630 1GB Hybrid Graphics card (select models) gives a performance boost to your day-to-day processor functions for a faster, more optimized overall computing experience while lowering power consumption.

The C Series laptop comes with one-touch VAIO, ASSIST and WEB buttons, for launching Media Gallery™ software, VAIO Care™ software and access to the web without full boot-up into Windows, all with a touch of a button.

All models incorporate backlit keyboards, illuminating the lettering for typing in dark situations. The built-in HD web camera powered by an “Exmor” sensor also allows for great low-light performance. And with the built-in microphone you can video message with family, friends and coworkers. Face tracking technology allows the camera to automatically adjust focus and follow you as you move around while video chatting.
