VAIO X Unboxing Video
Hey guys,
Here is my commentary of VAIO X and its contents. In this video I talk a little bit about everything from packaging to notebook’s design and its ports. If you would like to learn more about this VAIO and see what it looks like inside, check out this interesting article where an engineer was invited to assess this VAIO ingenuity and at the end he was pretty impressed at how VAIO developers put their hearts into designing this notebook. Here is a little abstract from that article:
Engineers felt that every part of the Vaio X shows ingenuity.
“I felt that Sony put its whole heart into developing this,” one of them said. “I would like to have a drink with the designers of the Vaio X. I think I will find a kindred spirit in those people.”
As for the employed components, the Vaio X is the integration of the best possible parts, engineers said. For example, if Sony had designed a PC that is very difficult to reassemble after being torn down, like the MacBook Air, the company would have not had to make that much effort. They were impressed by the fact that Sony realized the slimness while following basic design rules.
“I was surprised that Sony engineers were allowed to make efforts to realize such thinness,” an engineer said. “It requires cooperation with production plants. At which phase of the project, the plants started to be involved? No matter how much enthusiasm the engineers have, it wouldn’t be possible to realize such a design without the cooperation. Manufactures and engineers have to share the same spirit.”
Enjoy!
