Typical Toshiba

Advantages: Ease of use, memory capacity
Disadvantages: Quality, feel, value for money

...The Toshiba Satellite L500 is the same as most other toshiba laptops. It looks stylish and can do all the basic functions that you would want for a laptop. However, when you use it, you dont feel very comfortable because it feels very cheap. The keyboard is very flimsy and feels like it is about to break every time you type something and the mouse pad and buttons do not respond well. However, the number pad on the right hand side of the keyboard is great as it makes it so easy to type numbers. You can buy this laptop with a range of processors and sizes of harddrive so you can choose the one which suits you best. The display is actually very good but the battery life could have been improved. On my model it will last for a maximum of 2.5 hours on its lowest power setting. Overall, this laptop is reasonable at most things but not...

Toshiba Equium

Advantages: Value For money
Disadvantages: No Bluetooth

...i first bought a Toshiba around about 4 or 5 years ago, it was a toshiba tecra m3, it was a lovely laptop until i dropped it and broke it, i decided that i would replace it with another toshiba because of the previous good reliability i had got from the machine, i thing that attracted me to this laptop was firstly the fact it was an operating system upgrade for me and secondly the superior specifications, the only down side being that there is no integrated bluetooth and trusted security platform, i found that the offers that were available at the time of purchase were very reasonable and i feel i got great value for money, i also think that the designer of this laptop has taken very great care with the general look and feel of the laptop and have put a lot of thought into the hardware they have supplied and it holds pride of place...

Review of Toshiba Satellite L350-12N

Toshiba DVD.

Advantages: all the functional features available
Disadvantages: lacks on board memory.

...I will put this that I am a DVD addict because I have up to two DVD players excluding this present Toshiba model well I have no other option than to sell one off to a friend or action at E bay merchants. Well I will say that this is a standard DVD player because it has all the necessary features like MPEG4, DIVX, MPEG and AVI functionality. From my observation, this DVD player has the capability of playing all uk format and even plays format from abroad. It has wide range of features but as a device that I got new, and as usual with DVD machines, I pray it last long for me because DVD machines are capable of selecting and rejecting disc. It also has the capabilities of 5X zoom picture, which is capable of making the picture 5 times larger than the normal size. Some DVD machines are capable of not playing a home recorded that I once...

Save up some dosh to buy this Tosh...iba

Advantages: Fast, Portable, Comfortable and Sleek, HD Resolution, Toshiba support is brilliant!
Disadvantages: Awful grapics card, Not very durable, Speaker volume isn't fab...

...that law legal. So the laptop, it's got plenty of positives and only a few negatives. And if you've read my other reviews, I like to get the negatives out of the way first. NEGATIVES I'll get straight to the point, the graphics card is seriously bad, there's no way around it. It's a new thing where your computers RAM is used to power some of the graphics, like video and pictures. However this won't work with high-end games like the Call of Duty series or Crysis. This however, isn't a laptop you'd buy if you were wanting one for gaming, so it's not a major draw back. Another bad point is the durability, which isn't great. The lid can be pushed in, revealing it is fairly hollow apart from the screen and its components. I thought this a bit stupid as Toshiba are just wasting money making more material, why not just make it thin and tight guys...

toshiba satellite L350-12N

Advantages: Built in webcam and microophone. 17 in screen, reasonable size.
Disadvantages: not really any.

...Really loved this laptop, it is cheap, has a fairly large screen and has some pretty cool extra features which I shall get on to later in the review. This is just going to be a quick (ish) review as going out soon. Compared to other laptops, this is impressively fast, probably due to it's Intel Pentium Dual-Core Processor T2370. It runs on windows vista, which seems to be faster than earlier windows. It is quite light, being only 3.15 kg and is quite small enough to carry round and fits in most bags. It has a width of 398mm, a depth of 292mm and a height at the front of 35.3mm and 43.1mm at the back. The screen is 17in (larger than many laptops) and it has a fairly good battery life. It also has built in sterospeakers. It also has a double layer DVD Multi drive. These features mean it is ideal for putting a movie on when you're out...

TOSHIBA

Advantages: Useful
Disadvantages: There are plenty of better models

...GENERAL INFORMATION This Toshiba laptop is part of the Equium series. Key Features - Intel® Pentium® Dual-Core Processor T2370 - Genuine Windows® Vista® Premium Edition - DVD Super Multi drive (Double Layer) - 1,024 MB | maximum expandability : 2,048 MB | technology : DDR2 RAM (667 MHz) - 15.4 " WidescreenToshiba TruBrite® XGA TFT (1280 x 800) High Brightness display Basically the laptop is an average notebook computer for general use. The processor and drive capabilities are nothing special, but admirable for the price that you pay. OPINION If you want a computer for anything other than general use this is not the right laptop for you. It doesnt have the capabilities to be anything other than an average computer. It could suit small business ventures that dont necessarily require a high processing speed, but is...

Review of Toshiba Equium L300-146

Toshiba or not Toshiba DVD is the question

Advantages: Excellent picture quality and they are lowering in price and are simple to use ans set up
Disadvantages: DVD disc's are a little to expensive although they will probably lower in price as the revolutioon takes off

...no tuning was required, but I was till unsure what to do with it as I had never used a scart cable, and in the instructions it does not mention that scart is an automatic tuner, that was only pit fall about the instructions that I have found. So I connected the cable turned on the DVD and instantly a message appeared on the TV welcoming me to DVD by Toshiba, amazing or what I thought. That then gave me my next worry, I tried to change channels but it automatically goes back to your scart channel, I referred back to instructions and this is where I found out that it automatically goes to scart when DVD is on full power, to get back to normal TV just put it on standby, as simple as that that was my DVD player fully installed almost as easy as the kettle. Now on to the features! Picture Quality: The qualities of DVD movies are simply...

Review of Toshiba SD-2109

Toshiba DVD player SD370

Advantages: Upscaling ability, picture quality is exceptional - 5 stars
Disadvantages: DVD tray wont like small children poking fingers in!

...What HiFi gave this player 5 star rating commenting that it believed Toshiba had shot itself in the foot by producing such a good player at such a cheap price, even comparing it £200 players. On this basis alone, I bought one. Firstly, it is exceptionally slimline, Victoria Beckham would love it. But that aside, do not be put off by the price tag, The finish of this player is good. If you have small children then perhaps the DVD tray is somewhat thin and frail and will not take kindly to heavy handed children or adults, for that matter. This aside, however, the optical result are exceptional. I have to keep smiling when I realise how little this player costs. The ability to scale up DVD's to 1080i works very well with the colours becoming richer and the definition becoming much more pinsharp - all in a player that costs so little. I...

Review of Toshiba SD-370

Toshiba SD-260 DVD Player

Advantages: Looks good, easy to use, good value for money
Disadvantages: No disc resume feature

...The first thing you notice with this Toshiba SD-260 DVD Player is that it looks good, it's silver, think and looks modern and stylish. The height is 43.8 mm, width is 421 mm and the depth is 260 mm and it weighs 2.3 kg, which is fairly light. On the front it has a tray on the left, which is hidden and on the right it has 6 buttons - eject, stop, play/pause, fast forward, rewind and power. When the power button is on it lights up blue. In the middle of the player there is an LCD display where the timings and chapters of the DVD are displayed. I decided to buy this DVD Player as it was a Toshiba, who are a respectable electronics manufacturer, so I thought I would be safe buying the product from them, and I have not been dissappointed. I have had this DVD Player for a year now and have had no problems, apart from loosing...
