Much detail has been kept under wraps, but most of its aesthetic and external design details will not go unnoticed. The Ultrabook is silver colored and has a cover with a brushed aluminum texture with the iconic logo of VAIO stamped in the middle.

The pleasing Sony keyboard suits the glossy 13-inch display. A row of physical buttons is placed above the keyboard with the familiar functions. Besides another logo, of the VAIO on the left the notebook also features a seamless mouse pad.





The left side of the Sony Vaio Ultrabook has an Ethernet port, VGA out, HDMI audio/video out, a headphone jack and a memory card slot. The other side of the notebook has two USB ports, a fan, and port for power.
