Key Features
Elegance and sophistication :   With subtle sophistication and undeniable elegance, the lightweight VAIO® FZ notebook is crafted with an aesthetic touch and careful attention to detail. From its exciting entertainment functions to its brilliant XBRITE-ECO™ display, the VAIO FZ is a beautifully designed, thin-and-light mobile entertainment center.
More display for your dollar :   The thin-and-light VAIO® FZ notebook packs big power and even bigger entertainment into a small, portable package. This unique 5.75 pound1 PC combines all the benefits of a 15.4” widescreen display2 with the dimensions or “footprint” of a much smaller notebook. The VAIO FZ is designed to maximize LCD space with advanced space-saving engineering techniques implemented throughout the chassis, including a reconfigured battery and motherboard design. The result is a brilliant, 15.4” widescreen display2 in the body of a portable, thin-and-light notebook.
A/V Instant Mode :   Imagine having the ability to enjoy your entertainment on your notebook without ever booting up. The VAIO® FZ notebook with A/V Instant Mode lets you kick off your entertainment with a single push of a button. Go straight to watching a movie, playing music, or viewing photos without ever booting-up the operating system, thereby conserving a significant amount of battery life. Convenient, built-in A/V control buttons also let you play, pause, rewind, stop, eject and control volume all with one-touch ease.
Entertainment controls :   An A/V fan’s dream PC, the VAIO® FZ notebook includes a full set of dedicated multimedia controls just above the keyboard. A round A/V interface jumps out of the clean design of the VAIO FZ, adding a unique and practical touch to its sophisticated appearance. These intuitive music and video controls are user-friendly, so you can easily control your CDs, DVDs, pictures and home movies with the push of a button.
