It also had a completely redesigned chassis, replacing the large rounded hinge with a sleek and angular design, featuring chrome accents on the hinge and VAIO logo. It was notably thinner and lighter than its predecessor, weighing just under 4 lbs (half a pound lighter) and 0.95" thick (1/4" thinner). It once again featured a 13.3-inch screen with a matte anti-glare finish, with a native 16:9 aspect ratio and maximum resolution of either 1366×768 or 1600×900. The VAIO SA/SB/SC series was released in February 2011. The keyboard was also redesigned with new backlit chiclet (island-style) keys. Unlike the SR, the new VAIO S Series had a mini-PCI slot that allowed for an optional internal WWAN (mobile broadband) adapter. As with the SR, the S offered an optional Blu-ray Disc drive. The graphics options were either the CPU-integrated Intel GMA HD Graphics or a discrete NVIDIA GeForce 310M. The CPU was upgraded from Intel's Core2 Duo to Intel's First-Generation Core i3/i5, and the system RAM was updated to DDR3. The aspect ratio of the display was changed to 16:9 (1600x900) from the older 16:10 (1280x800). Sony introduced the VAIO S series in January 2010 to replace the SR series.
