Sophisticated style you’ll want to carry everywhere

Ultra portable and exceptionally attractive, the VAIO TX37GP/W exudes sophisticated innovation. Minimal weight and appealing dimensions are achieved with advanced carbon materials, and the display cabinet is made especially slim through the use of white LEDs. A unique “gravity-joint” design confers a confident sense of balance between screen and keyboard, and attractive platinum white casing provides protective elegance. Packing the style and the power to complement the way you live, it’s a mobile achievement you’ll want to carry everywhere.

Powerful mobility

The VAIO TX37GP/W gives you powerful performance on the move. Its

VGP-BPS5A battery delivers up to 9.5 hours* of productivity, while the optional VGP-BPL5A battery delivers up to an impressive 16 hours*. Proven performance is underscored by impressive Intel Technology comprising an Intel

Security for assured mobility

VAIO TX37GP/W has many security features to prevent unauthorised access and ensure your mobile PC lifestyle. Hard Disk Password protects sensitive HDD data for one level of security. The biometric fingerprint sensor allows for another, with easy yet unmistakable ID recognition, circumventing the need for passwords. Further data protection for your VAIO TX37GP/W comes from secure encryption and decryption of files and folders via the Trusted Platform Module (TPM) security chip and bundled software utility.

An excellent 11.1˝ wide AV experience

Despite being so surprisingly slim, the VAIO TX37GP/W is big on entertainment. Employing white LEDs for the backlight, the 11.1˝ wide LCD (16:9 / WXGA: 1366 × 768) delivers excellent DVD viewing performance beyond its weight and dimensions. Instant Mode can be activated at the press of a button, so you can enjoy CDs and DVDs without waiting to boot up. Furthermore, the SonicStage Mastering Studio Audio Filter enables excellent audio production through recommended headphones (for example, MDR-Q22LP/S02 supplied with VAIO TX37GP/W). DVD±RW writing capability (supporting DVD+R DL) adds to options for creative output. Impressive, entertaining, inspiring — that’s the VAIO TX37GP/W.
