VAIO A12 Intel® Core™ i7 i7-8500Y Hybrid (2-in-1) 31.8 cm (12.5") Touchscreen Full HD 16 GB LPDDR3-SDRAM 512 GB SSD Wi-Fi 5

A New Generation Of 2-In-1
A combination of a clamshell laptop and a tablet is what most computer users expect from a 2-in-1

However, most 2-in-1 devices on the market have been far from perfect.
Now, VAIO breaks through the limit and brings you the ideal "all-round computer" that you have always dreamt of.

When Functionality Meets Style
VAIO A12 features a touch screen and a detachable keyboard, making it possible to transform to fit the user’s habits and usage.

Smart designs such as the VAIO® Stabilizer Flap, reverse hinge and natural slanting angle keyboard exemplify VAIO’s DNA. Through the meticulous design of various components and eliminating redundant parts, the perfect 2-in-1 device is born.

Forms That Fit Every Scenario
4 unique versatile modes courtesy of detachable components

With the touch screen and the removable keyboard, VAIO A12 can function as a traditional laptop (① laptop mode) or as a tablet (② tablet mode) with the keyboard base removed.

In addition, the device can be converted into ③ view mode when the screen is flipped backward with the keyboard attached, best for streaming content and videos. Flipping the screen back to back with the keyboard during view mode converts the device to ④ folding view mode, where it can be used as a tablet even without the need for removing the keyboard.

VAIO® Stabilizer Flap that combines portability, stability and style
The hinge of VAIO A12 connecting the screen and the keyboard adopts a specially designed VAIO® Stabilizer Flap mechanism. The Flap opens under the hinge as the screen opens and effectively stabilizes the device. This solves the problem where most traditional 2-in-1 devices either have restricted viewing angles due to the poor balance between the screen and the keyboard, or have a heavy bottom to compensate the weight of the screen.

Stay True To VAIO's Smart Design
A 2-in-1 that functions and feels like a true laptop

Accommodating ground-breaking designs like the VAIO® Stabilizer Flap mechanism, VAIO A12 has the appearance of a regular clamshell laptop. Graced with stylish designs like VAIO’s iconic natural slanting angle keyboard and VAIO S11’s well-beloved aluminum alloy palm rest, VAIO A12 offers practicality without compromising its aesthetics.

The Ideal Work Style
The VAIO A12 allows you to embrace a brand-new work style by supporting multiple modes and a wide range of functionalities that make you work more comfortably and efficiently. The stylus pen provides the natural feel of a pen-on-paper experience so you can achieve more than you could with a regular pen.

Intuitive touch operation and a stylus pen that provides a pen-on-paper feel

The 12.5-inch touch screen supports intuitive touch actions such as swiping, zooming in and zooming out. Operating through the screen is a breeze.

Ultimate portability

VAIO 12 is a 2-in-1 device that functions as a laptop with uncompromised portability, typing experience and connectivity.

Ultra-light and versatile tablet mode

When separated from the keyboard base, the screen weights about 623g and is only 7.4mm thick - as thin as a regular document. The lightweight design makes every business trip a breeze.

Make the most with screen sharing

Get the job done by sharing information on the screen with your business partners and presenting your ideas with the stylus and many other accessories.

Heart of a smart home

Search for your favorite recipes, browse news feeds, and even make video calls with your family.

Strive For Perfection
Conventional 2-in-1 computers often fall short of offering the most basic functions of a clamshell laptop.

VAIO® Stabilizer Flap mechanism overcomes the long-standing problem of 2-in-1 devices.

By providing users with a hassle-free experience, VAIO A12 boosts work efficiency and helps users to unleash their potential.

Handy Device That You Can Bring Anywhere Effortlessly
Screen with keyboard attached weights only around 1.1 kg

VAIO A12 outcompetes ordinary laptops in weight at only 1.115kg even when the keyboard is attached, granting supreme portability.

Thoughtful Design
Silent keyboard that prevents distraction

Made with highly durable material, each keycap of VAIO A12 is precision-engineered on the keyboard for greater comfort while minimizing annoying typing noises at the same time. A quieter keyboard means you and the people around you can work without distraction.

Structurally, 2-in-1 does not overheat around the palm wrist rest and at the bottom, meaning you can stay cool and comfortable even after a long day of work with the device put on your lap.

The surface of each keycap is coated with specially developed high abrasion resistance UV coating that keeps the keys durable and clean. The fluoride in the coating also mitigate smudge and keep the keyboard good as new even after prolonged usage.

Compact But Serves All Your Needs
Our ports mean business

New ports and connectors for computers emerge constantly. But when it comes to business settings, VGA (analog RGB output) is still the most common connector among conference room projectors.

The VAIO A12 meets real-world needs and is compatible with both the old and the new standards. On the side of the screen is a USB Type-C™ port while the keyboard houses an HDMI port *1, a VGA connector*2, a LAN port, three USB ports, an SD card slot and many more, providing all necessary connections. In addition, HDMI/VGA and USB Type-C™ (video interface)*3 can work at the same time and output content on three different screens simultaneously together with the tablet screen.
