Sony Vaio Duo 11

First Impressions: Sony Vaio Duo 11Sony India today showed off the next generation hybrid Ultrabook, the Vaio Duo 11. The Vaio Duo 11 will be priced at Rs. 89,990, and would be available in India starting end of December 2012. It can switch between being a tablet and being a full-fledged ultrabook. With the flexibility hybrid devices tend to offer, we are fairly certain that they will be rather popular in 2013. Just that the pricing has to be right, though. In the meantime, here are some first impressions
of the device, from the time we spent with it at the event. 

The Vaio Duo 11 has an 11.6-inch Full HD touch panel. Sony says the hybrid device features the Opti-Contrast panel which is slightly different from a conventional touchscreen panel – the touch panel and the LCD are joined together with glue, as compared to the conventional panel that has an air gap between the LCD and the touch panel layer. From the touchscreen experience, it didn’t honestly seem very different from most touchscreen devices we have tested. The response is very sure, but we aren’t very certain how much of precision improvement this panel type brings. Maybe we will see some differences when we test the device in detail.
