Carbon Fiber casing
The VAIO® TX Notebook is enclosed in a carbon-fiber casing, the same cutting-edge material used to keep jet airplanes light and quick and sports cars fleet, yet durable. This heavy-duty form factor is made of multi-layered carbon fiber, which is much lighter and stronger than the magnesium alloy used for most notebooks. Just like a jet or a luxury sports car, the VAIO TX Notebook is built to last even through the toughest daily wear and tear.
