Enjoy potent visual entertainment
The renowned visual capabilities of VAIO GR are greatly enhanced. You can edit your videos, burn them to DVDs and watch them in a smoother, more convenient fashion.

Clear Bright LCD with dual backlight & dual inverter
GR’s new LCD is simply amazing. Equipped with dual backlight and dual inverter, it offers images as bright as on LCD TV screens. It also features a glare filter and AR (Anti Reflection) coating that produces blacker blacks and displays images more vividly at higher contrast, with less reflection. In addition, the extra large 16.1 inch UXGA (1600 x 1200) screen with wide viewing angle lets you enjoy big screen viewing in spectacular colour across a wide arc of visibility, both horizontally and vertically. You'll find it perfect for viewing and editing video images.
Screen image is simulated.
  The glare filter curbs light diffusion without dimming brightness, realising blacker blacks and more vivid colours. An AR coating also minimises annoying reflection from external light sources, resulting in an easier to view display.
DVD videos in one Click!
The 16" VAIO GR enables fun and easy DVD video creation. Simply load the DVD±RW drive with your choice of DVD media, connect your DV or MICROMV Handycam*, and click the "Create DVD!" button of Sony's excellent Click to DVD software. With one click you can create your own Hollywood-style DVD masterpiece — one that is more durable than the original tape media and stores even more data than a stack of CDs. Adding chapter menus and colourful templates, trimming, editing and importing still photos is a breeze with Click to DVD! What’s more, combined with the Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor supporting Hyper-Threading Technology, Click to DVD enables importing and encoding at the same time, smoothing the DVD creation process even more.

Fluent DVD writing
The versatile 16" VAIO GR enables writing to DVD+R/RW and DVD-R/RW discs. You can make DVD videos or archive your favourite movies with Click to DVD, and overwrite DVD+RW and DVD-RW discs for everyday uses such as storing data with Drag'n Drop CD+DVD software. It’s easy to append/edit data on DVD media — even after it has been recorded* — for seamless backups. And you can utilise write-once formats when you need to protect your data from being erased, or when compatibility is extremely important for exchanging and distributing data. In each format, buffer under-run error protection assures consistently high quality copies every time.
Once DVD video has been recorded on DVD media, the media can no longer be appended/edited.
One-press picture adjustment
The Brightness Button on 16” VAIO GR lets you select a suitable brightness for your screen depending on usage. Press it once to enter Maximum Brightness Mode and enjoy peak screen performance for visual entertainment purposes such as DVD viewing. The LED indicator is green in this mode. Or leave your brightness at the setting you’ve chosen in VAIO for text viewing (LED indicator is white). You can also adjust screen resolution with one push of the Magnify Button, which is located on the left side of the brightness button, near the right speaker.
Professional video editing & viewing
If you own a DV or MICROMV Handycam*, but desire a broader range of editing & viewing possibilities, then 16” VAIO GR is the perfect choice. Add sophisticated titles, subtitles, and transitional effects with Adobe® Premiere® 6 LE professional video editing software. VAIO Edit Components 3.0, VAIO's own plug-in for Premiere, lets you create high-quality video presentations and edit MPEG files. Mobile Intel® Pentium® 4 Processor supporting HT Technology makes your video editing smoother. And after editing, you can record your masterpiece on a DVD with Click to DVD software. Everything’s done on VAIO GR’s Clear Bright LCD, which adds enjoyment to your video editing and viewing experience. VAIO GR — it’s the flagship model for visual professionals.
