Vaio Duo 11 or Vaio Duo 13

Real confused about which Vaio to purchase:

1. Vaio Duo 11 - 128gb including sheet battery for $550

2. Vaio Duo 13 - 256gb with two year extended warrnty until 2015 for $950

any insights? i dont think space will be the issue, but the screen realestate might.

thanks.

 

I'd with the 13.

It's got enough battery-life to reach MBA levels.

 

If you are serious about using the pen, skip the Duo 11. It's stuck with N-Trig Duo Sense 1. They started using much superior Duo Sense 2 with Duo 13.

 

Another vote for Duo 13 .

It's an improvement over the former in almost every way. Sony really upped their game with it.

-much higher battery life
-significant better performance, especially 3D
-better digitizer pen tech
-more efficient use of space
-larger, brighter screen
-magical thermals

you should know that Sony abandoned Vaio line. They are no longer making laptops. Terrible decision I think, as they had some of the better hardware competing with Apple pro-sumers.

 

+1 on VAIO Duo 13.

I had the 11 with sheet battery and still couldn't get through a day. Pen was okay, but had a few issues.

The Duo 13 improved across the board. However, getting a spare pen will cost you now, given Sony have pulled the VAIO range.

Surface Pro 3 pen will work. $50, right?

 

Good point. I would imagine so.
