Sony updated its VAIO Z ultraportable in early 2012 with an option for Verizon 4G LTE and a new white color. Other than those changes, this high-performance ultraportable remains the same as its predecessor. It still utilizes a unique external Power Media Dock which, when connected via a proprietary Light Peak USB port, gives the computer access to a discrete AMD GPU (a Radeon HD 6650M) and an optional Blu-ray drive.
