Thursday, September 25th, 2008 | Laptop reviews
In Vaio, CS Series is the one that comes in lower price range. There are 5 models in it, CS 12,14,15,17,18 with increasing price respectively. Major differnece in them is Processor GHz and RAM.
Configuration - Intel Core 2 Duo Processor 2.2 Ghz. 160 to 320 GB ATA HDD. 2 GB DDR2 SDRAM. Only model CS 17 and 18 have both dedicated 128 MB Graphics card memory. Mobile Intel Graphiocs accelerator. DVD Writer/Player. All have built in Bluetooth feature and built in webcam 1280 X 1024 effective pixels.
Battery Life is less than 3 hours. So bad battery life. TZ series have excellent battery life, as long as 10 hours.
OS - Windows Vista.
Price - There is about similar difference in price between consecutive models.
CS 13 - Rs. 45000
CS 14 - Rs. 50000
CS 15 - Rs. 55000
CS 17 - Rs. 60000
CS 18 - Rs. 70000
CS 17 model has some good colour options available apart from Aroma black like Jet blue, Clear white, Red and Pink also. They look great.
The Vaio CS series is best for budget buy in sony brand. Of course, i can recommend you another brand cheaper than sony a lot and still excellent features at much lower price. This series seems to be designed especially for indian market where people prefer cheaper laptops with better specs. Sony has tried to keep unwanted extras as minimum as possible and this can be best for light home use and not hardcore gaming or such.
