Solid keyboard, Extremely unusual and diverse connections, Very light
Teeny trackpad, Very expensive, Its feel and look don't match the price, Rubbish battery life
You have to wonder which consultant Vaio hired to decide what matters in a laptop. The Vaio SX14 has some strange priorities.It's very light and looks serious, so seems an obvious fit for a business traveller. However, the battery isn't powerful enough to...

Basically every port you'll ever need, Good performance, It's nice to see the Vaio brand back again
Disappointing battery life, Underwhelming display, Build quality leaves something to be desired, Expensive
Seeing the once-beloved Vaio brand back on our desk is a gratifying hit of nostalgia, but it's not the showstopper it once was. A high price and disappointing screen and battery life leave it lacking against higher-quality rivals...
The Vaio SX14 shows promise, but inconsistencies throughout mean that this old brand doesn't make an entirely successful return to the laptop market.It looks good and has impressive build quality, and it weighs less than its rivals. The keyboard is solid...
Nice design, Lots of connectivity, Seriously lightweight
Way overpriced, Poor battery life, Touchpad too small
Many of us have fond memories of the old Sony Vaio laptop range. The logo was synonymous with stylish design and solid performance, even becoming the tech brand of choice for James Bond. Sadly, the reborn Vaio is a bit of a let-down.That's not to say that...
Slim, sturdy and attractive design, Decent components and screen, Superb connectivity, High-quality keyboard

VAIO's return is welcome, and the SX14 has plenty to like; it's good-looking and light, with a good screen and keyboard on the outside and decent components and connectivity throughout. However, rivals do have better screens, superior battery life and som...
The Vaio SX14 (2021) returns with a fresh look and eye-popping specs under the hood, but the rest of the laptop offers an underwhelming experience for an expensive price...

Abstract: It doesn't have the old-school VGA port of the 2019 model, but the latest VAIO SX14 (starts at $1,249; $1,949 as tested) has ample connectivity for an ultraportable laptop. It also crams plenty of performance and versatility into a 2.54-pound package, mak...
bright touchscreen with full sRGB coverage, above average CPU and GPU performance, dual Thunderbolt 4 support, PCIe4 NVMe SSD support, very lightweight
relatively slow black-white response times, higher-than-average power consumption, loud when under demanding loads, chassis flexes somewhat easily, no 4K or LTE options in US
In review: Vaio SX14 VJS144X0211A. Test unit provided by VaioFrom the outside, the 2021 SX14 doesn't seems like a huge upgrade over the 2019 SX14. The story is flipped when looking at the motherboard inside as Vaio has changed nearly everything about the...
