My Laptop – Toshiba Satellite E105-S1402
I have always had the idea of buying a laptop which is cost effective , reliable and having latest configuration with lot of features. After doing some research in internet I decided to go for a Toshiba (poineer of notebook manufacturing) notebook and decided to go for one of their latest additions to the market, Toshiba Satellite E105-S1402.
Basic configuration:
- 14.1 diagonal widescreen TruBrite display
- Intel Core 2 Duo Processor P8400 (3MB cache)
- 4GB 800MHz SDRAM
- 320GB HDD
- DVD SuperMulti Drive with LabelFlash
I have been using this for about 3 months now and I must say that this machine haven’t disappoint me that much. Still I would say this one of coolest machines available packed with numerous features. Also it is powerful companion which can used for even very high processing requirements.
Few of the cool features available are:
- Back lit keyboard
- Bluetooth
- Fingerprint reader
- media panel with touch sensitive buttons
- 5 in 1 card reader
One of the significant differences between this model and the previous Tochiba Satellite models were the external appearance. It is so different from earlier models. For me it is pretty decent looking having a quite unique appearance.
However there seem to be few designs flaws in this models as well. One is the location of ports. There is power port and a USB port right next to the DVD ROM and it sometimes really annoying for the user to open the CD tray with all the power cable and USB cables running close by. Furthermore it could have been much more better and attractive if the media buttons were placed in front of the keyboard rather than on the right side.
It is really disppointing to see the poor sound quality of the small speakers this has. It is rather unbelievable to see that they have removed the Hramon Kardon speaker system which came in their previous models. The keyboard also has too much flexibility but it functions smoothly.
So if you are concerned about the quality of the laptop you better think twice before purchasing this. However the amount of features this offers are likely to surpass the these few quality issues.
