Reported to be the fastest Z range with 2 GHz processor, the Sony Z550 has been available in Japan with its Intel’s Atom processor and WiMax capability.
According to market analyst said, it will be a matter of time for the device to get popular in the market and set its mark as the device with fastest pace of Intel Atom processor for now.
The Z550 VAIO P comes with a 64GB SSD – we’re expecting 128GB to be an option – and runs Windows Vista. Compared to the original VAIO P, the 1.33GHz 60GB HDD version still available in the US, it scores almost twice the CrystalMark points overall.
Even the SSD performs better in conjunction with the new chip, outperforming both the 64GB and 128GB solid-state drives in the 1.6GHz and 1.86GHz models. Unfortunately, the new VAIO P with the Z550 processor option is currently only available in Japan, and there’s no telling when it might cross over to the US or Europe.
Available in Japan starting June 6th.
Price: ¥85,000 (about $900).
