Your entertainment, wherever you are
Whether you’re on the move or at home, the NW20EF puts you at the centre of a world of High Definition entertainment where contrasts are greater, blacks deeper and whites brighter to make images richer and gaming more immersive. The DVD Drive means you can play back movies, and record all CD and DVD formats, for storing treasured photos and home videos.

Designed for life
Central to the appeal of VAIO is its combination of sleek good looks with functional design. Take the isolation keyboard for example, which incorporates the optimum space between each key to enable the most accurate typing. The touch pad delivers additional functionality, enabling you to quickly find what you’re looking for using a variety of fingertip movements. Choose from the vibrant silver, white and pink finishes and match your VAIO to your style.

Appearing on the big screen
Beautiful images are assured, with the latest X-black technology. Colours are intense, details sharper and depth more real, whether you’re enjoying a favourite movie, browsing photos or playing a high-action game. The generous 15.5-inch screen means you’ll be able to watch movies just as the director intended in their original format, with 16:9 aspect ratio. It’s also large enough for you to view two web pages side-by-side, for moments when you need to multi-task.

X-black technology delivers deeper blacks and vibrant colours for natural-looking images View larger

Make your own movie
VAIO isn’t just about sitting back and enjoying movies, you can make your own too. Unleash your creativity with VAIO Movie Story video editing software. Just import your video and photos, choose a theme and soundtrack, and the software will do the rest, generating a finished movie complete with smooth transitions and special effects. Additional editing functions let you rearrange scenes and replace photos. Then when you’re done, it’s easy to share your movies with others on Windows® Media Player or by uploading to a website.

VAIO Movie Story can import a wide variety of video files including DVD, BD, AVCHD and Cyber-shot, and export to these formats too.

Easy access to all your media
Take all the effort out of storing and finding videos and photos with Picture Motion Browser. It automatically indexes all your media enabling you to browse by date or name. You can also click on a face and it’ll find all the other photos or clips featuring that person. The NW20EF also comes with Windows Media Player 11, which puts a world of entertainment at just a click away. Fill your library, then take your music and video anywhere with you. Play, view and sync your favourite tracks, movies and TV shows all from one place.

When you’re watching movies, browsing the web, and gaming, you want a PC that has the power to support your activities. The VAIO NW20EF is installed with an Intel® Pentium® Processor T4300 (2.1GHz), ensuring faster performance for multi-tasking, speedy wireless connection and longer battery life. That’s complemented by the notebook’s 3GB memory and a generous data storage hard drive capacity of 320GB.

Power-saving technology extends battery life, increasing the time you have between charges and adding to the notebook’s portability. Options include being able to turn the screen off when you’re listening to music. Fully compliant with Energy Star, the international standard for energy efficient consumer products, your VAIO is designed to cut energy consumption and cost.

Customer Reviews

Go for it
I got this to replace a well worn business Compaq. Ordered at about 1700hrs on the Thursday, its showed up about 1100hrs Friday. Quite impressive really.

Laptop great, looks good in white, feels solid without being heavy. Battery life good at about 4hrs. Nice feature is when you want to quickly look at something online, open the laptop, press the web button and it sparks into life more or less straight away, just with the browser operating, rather than doing a full boot up. Thats a really handy feature.

So I'd recommend it as a pretty well priced Sony. Very pleased with deciding on this from the plethora of stuff out there.

Very good value!
Bought this laptop about a month ago for university work and home entertainment, and I have absolutely no regrets so far - the 15.5 inch screen is great for watching movies - the display is crisp and clear and the sound quality from the built-in speakers is pretty good. Even with the seemingly large widescreen, it's quite easy to carry this laptop around as it's not too heavy (though clearly not as light as a netbook would be). With a built-in webcam and microphone and pre-installed Skype software it's great for communicating with friends and family right away. The SD card and Memory Stick Pro card readers are great for transferring photos directly from my camera to my computer without any cables. It's incredibly quiet yet fast, good-looking, and easy to use once you get used to Windows 7, which I think is a very user-friendly operating system. I especially like the one-touch web access which means you don't have to boot up the whole system to get on the internet (although it really doesn't take that long even if you do choose to access the internet the normal way). I would definitely recommend to others, although you should be aware that, as with many other laptops, the anti-virus protection and Microsoft Office 2007 software are limited trial versions only so you would have to either purchase after the trial period or install some alternative.
