Sony Releases Vaio | Red Edition
Sony is raising the status of its VAIO Duo, Pro and Fit models by releasing a limited number of rich and exotic VAIO | red edition PCs that provide users a premium experience from color and design to performance and support.
VAIO | red edition is the ultimate expression of Sony craftsmanship. The signature red finish is achieved by a variety of painting techniques on different materials, including carbon fiber and aluminum. Multiple paint layers are individually applied and hand-polished, building layer upon layer of lustrous color. To give it that extra glossy finish, a durable protective UV coating creates an extra vibrant sheen with gorgeous depth and richness.
