Toshiba Portege R835-P56x 13.3-Inch Extended Laptop
The other reviewers middling much striking the spots that needed hit.
The keyboard is a short loud, sure, only apart from that it is simply most perfect. I’ve forever liked the old IBM clicky keyboards. Typing on this reminds me of those, which I believe is awesome.
The touchpad was *kinda* weird, only I got utilised to it apace (have had the machine for virtually 2 weeks now). Another reviewer commented on the scrolling, and has a answer posted equally well. Subsequently a mates hours of use, I receive no problem utilising the touchpad (have even played Portal 2 a act with it).
The performance is amazing, the exclusively thing slowing it down is the difficult drive. I get SSDs in my other machines, so the difference is reasonably apparent to me. I’ll selection up an SSD and make this the perfect short laptop.
Battery liveliness is equally advertised. I brought it in to mold one daylight and downloaded all of Portal 2, OpenSUSE 11.4 ISO, and Office, whole while doing normal browsing with max brightness. I proceeded to burn and install OpenSUSE, and the battery Toshiba Portege R835-P56x yet lasted roughly 6.5 hours. I was impressed.
The screen is definitely bright. I used it in a automobile with sunshine coming through the window with no issues. As most, I’d prefer a matte screen, merely any glare on this is barely noticeable, I didn’t evening think virtually it while using it in the sun. I only4 advert it because I only6 read a ThinkPad review that received me thinking almost it.
I remarked above that I played Portal 2 on it, yup! Works meliorate than I expected, the sandy bridge i5 is a beast!
