TOSHIBA SATELLITE E105 REVIEW

Lighter, Slimmer, Handy and Consumer Oriented: Toshiba Satellite E105

According to the Giant Toshiba, the Best Buy customers demanded for Lighter, Slimmer and Handy 14.1 inch Notebook with comparatively improved battery life, more warranty and backlit keyboard. So Toshiba gave birth to E-105 Notebook that has all the above.

Design
The design of Toshiba’s E105 is visually pleasing to eyes; with squarish build rounded edges and high gloss Fusion Finish. This is right from the line of intersects to make geometric patterns, which extend from lid to inside the laptop. It’s built ended with 13.4 x 9.7 x 1.2 inches that comes about 5 pounds and moves smoothly into a bag. You will find slight pattern outside and brighter lines inside. If you prefer simple one then it might be distractive for your sight.

Performance
Satellite E-105 Notebook performance with Processor 5.2, Memory 5.9, Graphics 4.1, 320GB Hard Disk, a DVD±RW drive incorporated with LabelFlash label-etching technology. Other feature includes 802.11a/g/n wireless and Bluetooth built-ib that can easily sync up with smartphone and bluetooth mouse. An HDMI port and an external SATA (eSATA) connector serves great. This one also handles Gaming with 3.8 Graphics card and a 1.3-megapixel Webcam, a fingerprint reader, a 5-in-1-memory card reader brings comfort for users. The FM radio port here is an interesting touch, many may not use it – although, with the wide rang of available radio stations now appearing online – this seems like a novelty.

Overall
As mentioned earlier backlit keyboard and new simplicity are the highlight of E-105. Overall for the features offered I feel it Toshiba should have used more of its brains, as for this price there are other models that carry similar or better specification. Do a little research and then decide upon.
