The VAIO Fit 11A | Flip PC offers consumers three distinct ways to use their computer: as a traditional laptop, as a tablet, and as a reader. Aside from Windows 8.1, features include a front-facing camera, 8-megapixel rear-facing camera, and the company’s TRILUMINOS Display and ClearAudio+ technology. This model will be available in black, silver, or pink.

Even though the 11-inch Flip PC has both a laptop screen and a separate tablet screen, it will only weigh 2.82 pounds. Sony says this model will ship with an Intel quad-core processor and solid-state drive, but no specifics were given.

The 11-inch Flip PC is now the smallest, with 13, 14, and 15-inch models already on the market. It will be available along with the other refreshed Flip PCs by the end of February, with prices starting at $799. The refreshed VAIO Fit 14E/15E will be available mid-January, while the refreshed VAIO Tap 11 tablet and Tap 21 mobile PC will be available mid-February. Finally, the refreshed VAIO Pro and VAIO Duo models, which we previously reviewed, will be available in early April.
