索尼的Vaio的SV-T14124CXS笔记本测评

Though Sony notebooks usually offer a colorful range of options, the default silver/white scheme is perhaps the defining color of the series. The T14 offers a smooth brushed aluminum lid and a more matte plastic base with distinct edges and corners. The relatively flat design can be attributed to the reserved use of curves, yet the notebook avoids the inevitable boxy look by incorporating slanted sides and chrome trimmings where appropriate without looking excessive. The lack of any overly glossy surfaces (aside from the display itself) also helps in keeping surfaces relatively free from visible fingerprints or grease. It’s an attractive look that could easily pass as something more expensive.

Quality-wise, the outer lid has average resistance to pressure as a slight depression can be seen when pushed down with a hand. In contrast, the keyboard and palm rests perform much more favorably with less warping from applied pressure or side-to-side twisting. The exception here is the area around the Enter key, though this is attributed to the hollow space directly underneath for the DVD or Blu-ray drive. The only major complaint is the hinges as they allow too much wobbling of the screen, similar to what we observed with the T15.

The overall weight of 2.00 kg is lighter than the competing Toshiba Satellite P845T (2.16 kg), about the same as the Acer Aspire M5-481PT (2.01 kg), and heavier than the more expensive ThinkPad X1 Carbon Touch (1.52 kg). The T14 is also thinner than the Toshiba above, yet thicker than the X1 Carbon, which evidently puts it in the mainstream range with regards to weight and size. In fact, its 22 mm thickness barely passes the Intel Ultrabook specifications, so the T14 is clearly aiming for consumers on a tighter budget than say a Samsung Series 9 Lenovo X1 Carbon.

虽然索尼笔记本电脑通常提供丰富多彩的选择范围，默认情况下，银/白计划也许是该系列的定义颜色。 T14提供了一个平滑的磨砂铝盖和更磨砂塑料基地与棱角分明。比较平坦的设计可归结为保留使用曲线，尚未笔记本避免将斜边和镀铬的装饰在适当的情况下不看，过度的不可避免的四四方方的外观。缺乏的任何过于光滑的表面（除了显示器本身）也有助于保持相对不受表面可见的指纹或油脂。这是一个有吸引力的外观，可以很容易地通过更昂贵的东西。

质量明智的，外盖有轻微的抑郁症可以看出，当用一只手向下推平均抗压力。与此相反，键盘和掌托执行更有利地施加的压力或一侧到另一侧的扭转翘曲少。这里唯一的例外是Enter键的周围，虽然这是由于中空的空间，正下方为DVD或蓝光驱动器。投诉的主要是铰链，因为它们允许太多摇晃的画面，我们观察与T15相似。

的总重量为2.00公斤比的竞争东芝Satellite P845T（2.16千克），大约相同宏基M5-481PT（2.01千克），重量比更昂贵的ThinkPad X1碳触摸（1.52公斤）的轻。比东芝T14还薄外，还厚比X1碳，这显然是把它在重量和尺寸方面与主流区间。事实上，其22毫米的厚度，勉强通过了英特尔的Ultrabook规格，所以T14显然是针对消费者对一个严格的预算不是说三星9系列联想X1碳。

Keyboard

The non-backlit Chiclet keyboard is of ample size (28.25 cm x 10.5 cm) and feels similar to the backlit version as found on the larger Vaio T15. This means that the keys are unfortunately quite soft and shallow with poor overall feedback. In fact, feedback while typing is so low that it can be easy to miss a letter or two at first. Jumping between a desktop keyboard and the T14 is thus quite a shift, though we can appreciate the reduced noise and clatter on the Vaio. For many users, it may take a good amount of time before adapting comfortably to the very short travel.

Aside from the basic keys, Sony provides the usual Assist, Web, and VAIO auxiliary keys. Assist will launch VAIOCare while VAIO provides an easy one-window access to basic system functions including wireless, brightness, and network sharing. Regardless, dedicated volume keys are sorely missing and still require a combination Fn input to control.

Touchpad

The smooth and matte touchpad (10 cm x 5.5 cm) is narrow and is almost as tall as it is wide, which is fitting for a widescreen setup. Even so, it wouldn’t have hurt to increase its vertical length for more headroom during navigation. We ran into no accuracy issues with the touchpad as even multi-touch controls worked reliably, though the Zoom function feels clunky with a delayed onscreen response. The integrated left and right click keys offer strong feedback and a clear pressure point for easy use despite the short travel. For times when an external mouse is not available, the touchpad will work reliably as intended.

Touchscreen

A capacitive touchscreen is slowly becoming the norm with mainstream Windows 8 notebooks, though its usefulness and practicality on a regular notebook is debatable. Nonetheless, the multi-touch touchscreen on the T14 works flawlessly and without input issues and is even great for some simple gaming. The lack of a special tablet mode, however, does mean that reaching out to the screen to perform simple touch-based tasks can be tiresome after a while. 

键盘

非背光Chiclet键盘是充足的大小（28.25厘米×10.5厘米），并发现较大的Vaio T15背光版本的感觉类似。这意味着，钥匙不幸的是比较软，浅，贫困人口的整体反馈。事实上，反馈打字时是如此之低，它可以很容易错过一两个字母或第一。因此，桌面上的键盘和T14之间的跳跃是相当的转变，虽然我们可以理解的VAIO减少噪音和哒。对于许多用户来说，可能需要一个良好的数额前的时间很短的旅行舒适地适应。

除了从基本的按键，索尼提供了通常的辅助，网络，和VAIO辅助键。协助将推出VAIO VAIOCare而基本的系统功能，包括无线，亮度，和网络共享提供了一个简单的窗口访问。无论如何，缺少专用的音量键，仍然需要结合Fn输入的控制。

触摸板

光滑和磨砂触摸板（10厘米×5.5厘米）是窄的几乎是一样高的，因为它很宽，这是恰当的宽屏设置。即便如此，它不会伤害到导航过程中增加更多的空间，其垂直长度。我们跑进没有与触摸板的准确性问题，甚至多点触摸控制工作可靠，虽然感觉笨重的缩放功能与屏幕上的延迟响应。左右点击按键集成提供强大的易于使用的反馈和明确的压力点，尽管短期旅行。对于外接鼠标不可用的时候，触摸板将可靠地工作打算。

触摸屏

电容式触摸屏是主流的Windows 8笔记本电脑慢慢成为常态，但其有效性和实用性定期笔记本是值得商榷的。尽管如此，在T14上的多点触控触摸屏，完美的作品，并没有输入问题和一些简单的游戏，即使是伟大的。缺乏一种特殊的平板电脑模式，但是，并不意味着一段时间后，输出到屏幕上进行简单的基于触摸的任务，可烦人。

Color space reproduction is about 56 percent of the sRGB standard, which is typical of budget or consumer-level displays. Compared to a few of its immediate competitors, the T14 exhibits a very similar range of available colors with no noteworthy differences. These touchscreen notebooks are certainly far and away from covering the adobeRGB spectrum and are not fit for professional graphic artists where color accuracy is usually of utmost importance.

色彩空间再现sRGB标准，这是典型的财政预算案或消费级显示器的56％。相比其直接竞争对手，T14展品一个非常相似的范围内可用的颜色差异无值得注意的几个。当然这些触摸屏的笔记本电脑是距离远，覆盖AdobeRGB的频谱，不适合专业的图形艺术家色彩精确度通常是最重要的。

Additional display measurements were performed with an X-Rite spectral profiler. The T14 showed both poor grayscale performance and color accuracy in most situations. Red and blue in particular are represented with much poorer precision compared to green, leading to an almost equally inaccurate representation of purple or magenta. Gamma is also on the low side at a recorded 1.64, which can produce images with too much emphasis on white.

Note that the results for color saturation below may not be entirely accurate due to an error in a number of the pattern change prompts during testing. However, it does reflect similar findings in that green remains much more accurate in all saturation levels compared to red and blue.

其他显示器进行测量与X-Rite的频谱分析器。T14表明，在大多数情况下，既贫困灰度性能和色彩精度。红色和蓝色表示特别穷得多的精度相比，绿色，紫色或紫红色的几乎是同样的不准确表示。伽玛也是偏低记录1.64，它可以产生的图像过于强调白色。

请注意，下面的色彩饱和度的结果可能不完全准确的，由于一些模式变化中的错误提示在测试过程中。但是，它确实反映了类似的结果，绿色仍然更准确的所有饱和水平相比，红色和蓝色。

System performance is average or even slightly below for users who are accustomed to lightning SSD speeds. Since the SSD provides little boosting benefits, cold booting is a bit slow (about 13 seconds) and navigation on Windows 8 is far from instantaneous.

We ran four consecutive iterations of PCMark 7 to confirm that the secondary SSD provides minimal boost in performance. Final scores should rise notably after each repetition should a hybrid HDD/SSD drive be present. The final score peaks at about 2800 points, which is still below some competitors like the Acer M5-481PT (4052 points), but only marginally better than the HDD-only Satellite P845T (2657 points). Subjectively, it is difficult to feel on the T14 the performance gains that the hybrid drive would offer over a dedicated HDD system in everyday tasks.

系统表现平平，甚至略低于谁习惯于闪电SSD的速度的用户。由于SSD提供一点提高福利，冷启动有点慢（约13秒），在Windows 8导航远远瞬时。

我们跑了四个连续迭代的PCMark7，以确认二级SSD提供的性能提升微乎其微。最终成绩应该显着上升后，每个重复的HDD/ SSD混合驱动器存在。最后的比分峰在2800点左右，仍低于一些竞争对手，如宏碁M5-481PT（4052点），但只比硬盘驱动器的卫星P845T（2657点）。从主观上说，它是很难感到T14的性能提升，混合动力驱动提供了一个专用的硬盘驱动器系统在日常任务。

We subject the T14 to processing stress with monitoring tools (CPU-Z, GPU-Z, and HWiNFO) active in order to observe any potential throttling issues. With Prime95 active, both CPU cores were able to operate at their maximum 1900 MHz clock rate without any drops or problems. Similarly, the GPU jumped form 350 MHz to a constant 1000 MHz when FurMark was active. CPU temperature more or less peaked at about 60 degrees C during this period.

When both Prime95 and FurMark were active simultaneously, the GPU was seen fluctuating in the 900 to 1000 MHz range while the CPU remained at 1900 MHz. CPU temperature did rise to over 70 degrees C, though no throttling or stability issues were observed and a post 3DMark 06 run returned no noteworthy reductions in final scores.

Running on batteries will reduce GPU performance significantly while CPU performance remains intact. Running 3DMark 06 on batteries, for example, will return a similar CPU score (2377 points), but the overall score decreases from 3602 points on AC power to just 2102 points. According to GPU-Z, GPU clock remains at 350 MHz until the AC adapter is connected.

我们受到T14加工应力监测工具（CPU-Z，GPU-Z，和另外HWiNFO）活性，以观察任何潜在的节流问题。Prime95的活性，这两个CPU内核没有任何下降或问题，能够操作在其最大1900 MHz的时钟速率。同样，GPU跃升350 MHz至一个恒定的1000 MHz FurMark进行活跃的时候。 CPU温度在60摄氏度左右见顶或多或少在此期间。

当Prime95的FurMark进行活跃的同时，GPU被视为在900到1000 MHz范围内波动，而CPU保持在1900 MHz。 CPU温度上升到超过70摄氏度，虽然没有限制或稳定性问题进行观察和返回后的3DMark06跑的最终得分没有显着的减少。

电池上运行，将显着降低GPU性能，而CPU性能保持不变。运行3DMark 06的电池，例如，将返回一个类似CPU的得分（2377分），但整体分数下降，从交流电源2102点3602点。根据GPU-Z，GPU时钟频率为350 MHz，直到连接AC适配器。

The T14 uses a lightweight removable Li-Polymer battery rated at 43 Whr and 3760 mAh. The capacity is on the small side compared to other 14-inch notebooks like the Satellite P845T (48 Whr), ThinkPad X1 Carbon (45 Whr), IdeaPad U410 (44 Whr), and even Sony’s own Vaio E14 (59 Whr). A few smaller 13.3-inch notebooks, such as the Yoga 13 (54.7 Whr) and Satellite L830 (48 Whr), have larger capacity batteries still.

Maximum runtime was assessed with Battery Eater, first by using its Reader’s Test at minimum screen brightness on the Power Saver profile for maximum battery life. We recorded a runtime of over 7 hours before automatic shutdown. On the other end of the spectrum, minimum battery life was recorded to be about 1.5 hours by using the Battery Eater Classic Test on the High Performance profile at maximum screen brightness.

Our more realistic WLAN test puts the screen at 150 cd/m2 brightness (setting 10/10) while looping our continuous script to simulate typical browsing conditions. Under these settings, the notebook shutdown after about 4 hours.

Users can expect 4 to 5 hours of continuous use from the T14, which is standard amongst many 14-inch notebooks. A few can deliver about 1 to 2 hours of more runtime, such as the X1 Carbon Touch or Acer M5-581PT, but the T14 is thankfully not as short-lived as say the Satellite L830, which averaged just 3 hours in the same WLAN test. If users can accept lower brightness settings, squeezing out an extra hour from the T14 should be within reach.

T14采用了轻巧的可拆卸锂电池，额定功率为43瓦时，3760毫安时。容量是细长，相比其他14英寸的笔记本电脑，如卫星P845T（48瓦时）的ThinkPad X1碳（45瓦时）的IdeaPad U410（44瓦时），甚至索尼自己的Vaio E14（59瓦时）。几个较小的13.3英寸的笔记本电脑，如瑜伽13（54.7瓦时）和卫星L830（48瓦时），有更大容量的电池依旧。

最大运行时间进行了评估与电池噬魂，首先通过使用其阅读器的测试，屏幕亮度最低节电配置文件最长的电池寿命。我们录得超过7小时的运行时间，自动关机。在光谱的另一端，被记录到最小的电池寿命是约1.5小时，在最大屏幕亮度高的性能配置上采用的电池噬魂经典测试。

我们更现实的WLAN测试将150 cd/m2的亮度（设置10/10），而在屏幕上循环连续的脚本来模拟典型的浏览条件。这些设置下，笔记本电脑关机后约4小时。

T14，这其中包括许多14英寸笔记本电脑的标准，用户可以预计4至5个小时的连续使用。有几个可以提供更多的运行时间约1〜2小时，如X1碳Touch或宏碁M5-581PT，但T14是令人欣慰的不是短命说卫星L830在同一个无线局域网，平均只需3小时测试。如果用户可以接受较低的亮度设置，挤掉了一个小时，从T14应该是指日可待。
