    VAIO devices haven’t changed much since Sony shed the brand. New VAIOs have all the same hallmarks, with premium builds coupled with premium prices.

    And that works for the VAIO Z Canvas and VAIO flip model, which have unique designs and features that justify the high price tag. So what to make of the VAIO S? Starting at $1,099, it’s the cheapest VAIO, and it’s also the most basic. It’s a straight-up notebook, complete with a full complement of ports and non-touch display. But it has power, starting with a 6th-gen Core i5 processor and 8GB of RAM, and a business-quality build.

    Does the VAIO S meet the high standards set by its predecessors and other devices in the lineup? Can this utilitarian notebook justify its price? Read this VAIO S review to find out.
