| This was purchased as a first computer for a novice and has proved very successful. Easy to use, with a good screen and a responsive and quiet keyboard. Fast enough to do everything required, and Windows 7 is simple and friendly in use. The weight and size are suitable for portable use, but the screen is large and comfortable to use for long periods. Viewing angle is wide and easy. The WiFi works effectively and has very good range. The optical drive seems to do everything imaginable! Battery life has not been tested to the full, but has not been a problem in everyday use. The only thing required was to put a proper security suite on as the free ones supplied with new computers are usually inadequate. | | Good value for money: Rating: 5/5 |
I bought this recently for my mum & dad, both now retired and living abroad. They had been using a desktop PC for several years but needed something that didn't take up too much space. I chose this Toshiba laptop based on the reviews from others on Amazon (many thanks) and the price/spec.
They really like this machine. The keyboard keys and characters are large and easy to read, which at their age is a bonus! The screen is also a good size, with the text quite sharp. There is some light reflection from the screen though and I had to increase the brightness and contrast to make it easier to read. The built in webcam is of reasonable quality and ideal for Skype video calls, etc. For what they will be using it for, i.e. internet access, email, quiz games and word processing, performance is fine and this should last them for at least 5 years. Overall build quality is what you would expect for the money and a fully charged battery is lasting around 3 hours.
I would recommend this PC for users of a similar profile and have rated it overall 5 stars considering its specification, build quality, performance and price.

| I love my new Toshiba notebook! It does everything I want. The wireless internet was very easy to set up and has worked very well since. The screen size is just right, I can look at my photos with ease, (and take it to show other people) and watch programmes from BBC iplayer. It has a DVD player, USB ports, very good memory. It has a translate function which is great for writing emails and translating them to another language (Turkish in this case) to send. Unfortunately you can't translate an email back to English when you get a reply, but I am extremely happy with it. | | laptop: Rating: 5/5 |
