More Info Vizio officially introduces PC line Hands-on with Vizio’s laptops, desktops and 10-inch tablet Vizio details its first laptops: two thin-and-lights and a mainstream 15-incher, on pre-order for $898 and up Nine months ago, Vizio didn’t make laptops. Now, it’s seemingly all our readers are writing in about. The company, best known for its value-priced TVs, is expanding into the PC market, with a collection of all-in-ones and thin-and-light notebooks. So why have we been getting so many emails asking when the heck we’re going to publish a review? After all, it’s not like shoppers have any shortage of choice when it comes to Windows computers. The answer: Vizio is taking the same approach with PCs that it does with televisions, which is to say it’s offering impressive specs while undercutting its competitors. Case in point: all of Vizio’s laptops have a full-metal design, solid-state drive, zero bloatware and a minimum screen resolution of 1,600 x 900. And yes, that even applies to the lowest-end notebook, which goes for $900. Can you see now where this would be a tempting deal for folks who’d like to avoid spending $1,100-plus on an Ultrabook? Well, for those of you who’ve been curious, we’ve been testing Vizio’s 14-inch Thin + Light, and are now ready to unleash that review you’ve been waiting for. Meet us past the break to see if this rookie computer is as good as it looks on paper.Gallery: Vizio Thin + Light review (14-inch)Continue reading Vizio Thin + Light review (14-inch, 2012): what happens when a TV maker enters the PC market?Filed under: LaptopsVizio Thin + Light review (14-inch, 2012): what happens when a TV maker enters the PC market? originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 10 Aug 2012 16:00:00 EDT.
