The VAIO Vision+ 14 has a 14-inch screen and measures 312mm wide x 211.1mm high x 12.4mm thick. It's the lightest laptop in the world, and you can hold it with your fingers.

It's easy to use; just connect it to the USB Type-C port of a PC that supports DisplayPort Alt Mode. The resolution is 1920 x 1200 pixels. It's wider vertically than Full HD, so it's quite spacious. Although it's a VAIO-branded mobile display, it works fine with PCs other than VAIO.

Simply fold it closed from both sides to complete storage.

When using it as a stand, you can choose between two setup methods: 'floating the display in the air' or 'standing the display upright in portrait orientation,' depending on how you fold it. The folding method is explained in the instruction manual with illustrations.

This is how the display is set up to float in the air.

When connected to a laptop, the displays can be used side by side.
