Full HD resolution, Bright, bold screen, Very powerful components, Helpful convertible design, Portable size, Great Windows 8 software
Converting mechanism feels susceptible to damage, Volume buttons are awkwardly placed, Nowhere to store the stylus
The Sony Vaio Duo 11 offers a Full HD screen, a slide-away keyboard and some very powerful specs. It's a great way to take advantage of Windows 8's tiled interface, but you'll need to make sure you don't mistreat that sliding mechanism....

Gorgeous highres IPS display, Solid performance benchmarks, Neat stylus with auto palmrejection
Awkward design, Glitchy touchscreen, Short battery life
While there will be plenty of comparisons made in the coming weeks, the Sony Vaio Duo 11 doesn't make the best first impression for the emerging hybrid ultrabook category. As an ultrabook the Duo 11's awkward keyboard and short battery life hamper the p...

No cover or included case for the always-exposed screen, Keyboard isn't great for extended typing, Brief battery life
Sony's first hybrid Windows 8 tablet/ultrabook wows us with its 1080p IPS screen and impressive components. Note the compromises, though: Battery life is short, and the keyboard, while backlit, is cramped. Read More...

While there are certainly things to like about the Sony Vaio Duo 11, the design gets in the way of enjoying them.
The Windows 8 market is going to be flooded from 26 October, and Sony is offering a decent proposition in the form of the Vaio Duo 11. It's got the power, storage and portability. But we're unconvinced users will flock to this device as it has a £1000...
