Background

About the Sony VAIO VPCY1 Series

Introduced 2010

Sony introduced the VAIO VPCY1 Series at the start of 2010 as a thinner, cheaper companion to the 13.3-inch S Series. It had the same screen size but left out the optical drive and used Intel consumer ultra-low-voltage processors, which gave long battery life at the expense of speed.

The Y was aimed at students and commuters who wanted a light 13-inch VAIO without the cost of an S or Z. It was replaced later in 2010 by the VPC Y2. With no optical drive, software reinstallation relies on USB media or the recovery partition, and the battery is the part most likely to need replacing.
