VAIO UX Premium Micro PC
Premium models of the VAIO UX Micro PC feature a sleek black form factor and cutting-edge flash memory. Faster and more reliable, flash memory provides quicker access to applications and a rapid boot-up while improving battery life.
Faster
The integration of flash memory reduces the time it takes for your PC to power up, access programs, and write data to the hard drive so you can operate multiple applications simultaneously and efficiently
Next-generation Solid State Drive technology for VAIO® notebooks
Take performance to a new level by utilizing a Solid State Drive (SSD) in place of the typical spinning hard disk drive found in most PCs. Faster and more durable, the SSD provides a rapid boot-up and can launch applications at approximately two to three times the speed of a hard disk drive. Learn more (doc 27KB)
Solid State Drive benefits (pdf 391KB)
More Reliable
Data is written to stationary flash memory instead of a volatile rotating hard disk so you have less risk of hardware problems when you're on the move.
More Efficient
Since flash memory doesn't need the energy to rotate a hard disk, it takes much less power to operate, thereby conserving battery life.
Communications
Communications on the go
The VAIO® Professional UX Micro PC is communications-ready, with integrated camera and built-in microphone and speakers, so you’re equipped to communicate via VoIP6 virtually anywhere WLAN2 or WWAN1 service is available.
Wireless Beyond Hotspots
Forget searching the road for hotspots and internet hook-ups, because with the VAIO® UX Micro PC you don't need a hotspot to stay connected. With integrated wireless Wide Area Network (WAN) technology1 and a subscription to the Cingular Wireless national EDGE network, you can extend your wireless coverage well beyond the restrictions of LAN access2 networks and hotspots.
Wireless LAN Technology2
The VAIO® UX Micro PC features integrated 802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN2 technology, enabling easy access to your existing home or office wireless network and local hotspots without the need for additional hardware or network cards.
Bluetooth® Technology3
The VAIO® Professional UX Micro PC features integrated Bluetooth® technology3 for effortless communication with Bluetooth-enabled optional devices, such as PDAs, wireless headsets, and GPS receiver, without the need for additional hardware or software.
SmartWi™ technology
Sony's original SmartWi™ technology seamlessly manages wireless Wide Area Network (WAN)1, 802.11 a/b/g wireless LAN2, and Bluetooth® technologies3. Now you can quickly and easily toggle among your wireless connectivity options - wireless LAN2 for home, office, and hotspots; Bluetooth® technology2 for peripherals; and wireless WAN1 for access to the Cingular Wireless EDGE network, when you're traveling outside the reach of LAN2 access networks and hotspots.
Easy to Use
Ingeniously compact design
The VAIO® UX Micro PC is truly an achievement in design, incorporating years of Sony engineering expertise. Knowing the VAIO® UX Micro PC needed to be remarkably compact but also effortless to use, Sony engineers created a host of ergonomic and functional features designed specifically to make using the UX Micro PC easy and fun.
Keyboard, stylus, and fingerprint sensor
An integrated keyboard and stylus allow you to choose the input method you prefer. VAIO® Touch Launcher and Instant Command enable quick and easy program access, and the biometric fingerprint sensor stores your passwords so you can access applications and secure web sites without having to type them.
Zoom, scroll, point
The UX Micro PC really makes smart use of all its display space. With control buttons for zooming, scrolling, and a stick pointer, as well as the ability to view in either landscape or portrait orientations, you'll be able to view documents, applications, and media in the most appropriate way.
Security
Integrated Biometric Fingerprint Sensor
Security is a top priority with the VAIO® UX Micro PC. All UX Micro PCs feature an integrated biometrics fingerprint sensor, ensuring personal security and the convenience of not having to remember your passwords.
G-Sensor™ HDD Shock Protection
Intelligent hard disk drive protection is yet another layer of engineering intelligence safeguarding your hard disk drive and the data on it against loss or damage. When the built-in 3D acceleration sensor detects a risky movement, the HDD-head will lock up to secure its position and protect the disc from scratching. An intelligent algorithm unique to VAIO® PCs judges whether or not a movement is risky, activating disk drive protection only when your hardware is at risk.
Convenient Expansion
Lots of slots
In addition to the single USB 2.0 port, Memory Stick Duo™ slot, and headphone and microphone inputs on the main unit, the VAIO® UX Micro PC comes with a VGA adapter and port replicator for convenient expansion. The port replicator includes three USB 2.0 ports, i. LINK®4, VGA, AV-out, Ethernet, and DC-in, and the VGA adapter includes ports for VGA, Ethernet, and AV-out.
GPS Navigation
The VAIO® UX Micro PC includes Microsoft® Streets & Trips GPS application pre-installed. Using the optional Bluetooth® GPS receiver and integrated wireless communications6, your UX Micro PC can perform as a portable navigation assistant.
