Vizio Thin Light CT15 alternatives

Information from 20 Jun 2012.

Coming in 14″ (CT14) and 15.6″ (CT15) flavors, the Vizio Thin + Light is based on Ivy Bridge. Both feature the exact same ports, specs, and features. A whole range of Intel Ivy Bridge ULV processors is available: Core i3-3217U (1.8GHz), i5-3317U (1.7GHz), or i7-3517U (1.9GHz). All models are equipped with 4GB of RAM and integrated HD 4000 graphics. The screens are the only thing to set the two sizes apart. It’s good to see that an HDTV manufacturer isn’t sending this out with low res screens; the 14″ is equipped with a 1600×900 display while the 15.6″ comes with a full 1920×1080 display. We’ve confirmed that the 1080p screen is IPS, but the 1600×900 screen doesn’t appear to be

Vizio Thin Light CT15 alternatives

Acer Chromebook 15 (CB3-531), 15.6 inch, 2000 grams (4.41 lbs)
The CB3-531 is another cheap large screen low res Chromebook which will be great for using for web browsing, document editing on/offline, email and using many (but not all) Android apps and hopefully will withstand a lot of use out and about.
Lenovo Thinkpad S531, 15.6 inch, 2100 grams (4.63 lbs)
If you’re using your laptop primarily to ‘get things done’ then you’ll have a couple of things at the top of your wish list. Large screen, perfect working fascia and battery life; You’ll probably also be prepared to take a hit on style or even weight for the right product. The Lenovo Thinkpad S531 could be just what you’re looking for. A 9hr, 15” laptop with the Thinkpad KWM fascia and Ultrabook advantage. One thing to be aware of though is that this Ultrabook is based on older standards (Ivy Bridge). Because it’s got a 62.8Wh module inside, battery life isn’t going to be a problem.
Tarox Modula Ultrabook, 14.1 inch, 1500 grams (3.31 lbs)
The Tarox Modula Ultrabook is an Ivy-Bridge based Ultrabook which comes in various models. Basically there is a Core-i3 and a Core-i5 version with either 120GB or 250GB SSD. The Display comes at a rather average 1366x768 pixels at a 14" screen. We would have loved to see some more pixels in there, but arguably at that budget pricepoint we may overlook this here. To put all in a nutshell: a good middlerange ultrabook at a budget price!
NEC LaVie X, 15.6 inch, 1590 grams (3.51 lbs)
This is the all new NEC LaVie X Ultrabook. It is incredibly thin at just 18.5mm and with a weight of only 1.59kg and a claimed battery life of 7hrs the 15.6" Ultrabook is a perfect companion device. It will most likely be only available in ASIA and might not find its way to the US or even Europe. The IPS 15.6" LCD has a resolution of 1920x1080 (FullHD).
ZaReason UltraLap 430, 14.1 inch, 1474 grams (3.25 lbs)
The ZaReason UltraLap 430 is one of the few Linux Ultrabooks launched recently. With a wide variety of operating systems to choose from (Ubuntu variants, Debian, Fedora) ZaReason leaves no one unsatisfied. It comes with either a Core i3 or a Core i5 processor and some serious options for Storage. One can choose from 3 versions on mSATA storage (64GB, 128GB, 256GB) + either one of the two HDDs (250GB, 500GB) or one of the 3 SSD options (128GB, 256GB, 512GB) making that a perfect modular choosable Ultrabook.
Asus S500CA, 15.6 inch, 2100 grams (4.63 lbs)
Available with Core i5 and Core i7. Model number S500CA-CJ005H used for the specifications above.
ASUS VivoBook S400, 14.1 inch, 1995 grams (4.4 lbs)
As one of the cheapest touch-enabled Ultrabooks, the Vivobook S400 should get a large audience although a deeper dive on the specs reveals a few points of note. The weight is mainstream rather than class-leading and the spinning hybrid drive won't bring you the speeds you see on SSD-based devices.
Samsung Series 9 15 Win 8 (900X4D), 15.0 inch, 1592 grams (3.51 lbs)
Samsung's Series 9 15" model comes with a 1600x900 screen a backlit keyboard and an Intel Ivy Bridge (3rd Gen) Core Processor. Windows 8 models available from end of October 2012 and there's a lower-cost 4GB version. This is a very high quality ultralight with excellent screen and keyboard.
Apple MacBook Pro 2012 15-inch, 15.4 inch, 2020 grams (4.45 lbs)
This is the new Apple MacBook Pro with a Retina display. It comes with 2 graphics cards, a built in Intel HD 4000 and a NVIDIA Geforce GT650M with 1GB of GDDR5 memory. It also comes with an HDMI out and 2 Thunderbolt ports. There is also an 2.6GHz Version available with 512GB SSD storage. The display features a stunning 2880x1800 resolution.
HP ENVY 6t, 15.6 inch, 2154 grams (4.75 lbs)
The Envy 6t is the large-screen Ultrabook in HP's 2012 range of thin and lights. 15.6" sounds productive but we're a little dissapointed to see 1366x768 resolution on such a large screen. As yet, we haven't seen any options for higher resolution screens but this could be something HP offer in their B2B business. 2nd and 3rd-Generation CPUs are available along with a discreet GPU option. As yet, we haven't seen any SSD options which clearly leaves space for the HP Envy Spectre models
