Customer Ratings & Reviews

The laptop has a sleek design with a medium size 15" HD display for viewing photos, multimedia or movies. Ample usb ports for connecting external devices. Lightweight with a small ac power adapter. Boots quickly when powered on. Great price overall!

This would be an awesome laptop if the motherboard supported dual-channel memory. The laptop comes with one 4GB RAM module, but has two RAM slots on the motherboard. Though Toshiba claims the RAM is "not user-replaceable," it looked pretty darn replaceable to me when I added a second 4GB module to the second slot. The upgrade involved removing 12 screws and pulling the back off the laptop. The process was very easy and took all of 8 minutes. Unfortunately, though the RAM was recognized, it was still operating in single-channel mode. This article (http://www.extremetech.com/computing/222662-poor-oem-designs-single-channel-ram-sabotage-amds-carrizo) explains the situation, though does fully explain how drastically single-channel memory reduced graphics, especially 3D graphics, performance. Here is a YouTube video that shows the difference between an AMD A10 with single-channel 1600 MHz memory and the same APU with dual-channel 2133 MHz memory (https://youtu.be/p-k44EV5fM4). Even if the dual-channel memory was running at the same 1600 MHz as the Toshiba is configured with, it's obvious that dual-channel memory DOUBLES the graphics processing unit (GPU) performance. So, this laptop is half as fast as it could be for no real reason, except that Toshiba, for some unfathomable reason, chose to restrict memory speed to single-channel on this laptop. If I sound bitter, it's because the Carrizo AMD A10-8700p is an excellent chip that supports features like hardware HVEC H.265 4K video decoding and DirectX 12, but it is crippled by a seemingly arbitrary manufacturer decision. Aside from the tragic memory controller, The Toshiba seems like a nice laptop, especially for the $300 sale price that it was sold for as a Best Buy "Daily Deal." The memory is easy to upgrade to 8GB without risk of damaging the fragile ribbon cables on the motherboard (unlike an ASUS that I recently purchased that had the RAM slots on the BOTTOM of the motherboard, requiring near-complete disassembly to add memory). The screen and sound are fine, considering the price. Though it is plastic made to look like anodized brushed aluminum, this laptop is fairly good looking (but scratches very easily). As I mentioned, the RAM is super easy and cheap ($22) to upgrade to 8GB. It feel pretty sturdy. There isn't too much bloatware (except for McAfee, DigiMe, and Wild Tangent). The 1000GB hard drive is fine. It is just a shame that for practically no increase in manufacturing cost, plus the minimal price of a 4GB RAM upgrade, this laptop could have been a fine casual gaming computer. I love AMD, but the OEMs are crippling the machines that use their APUs. If you're looking for a good cheap laptop for anything other than running recent games, this is a fine purchase. Otherwise find an AMD A-10 8700P laptop that supports dual channel RAM.

Researched various brands and settled on this model for my high school aged son. Decent keyboard, display, and battery life. Only complaint so far is track pad seems a bit tricky to navigate.

Toshiba laptop is fast, easy to use and meets my needs perfectly. The first one I purchased had something wrong with it, and Geek Squad was wonderful in exchanging it for a new one. Files were transferred well. I would really like Windows 7 or 8 on this computer rather than 10, but I was discouraged in doing so.

This computer was on sale for $300 and I purchased it. Two day delivery was free. The keyboard has a good feel to it, the screen is clear and bright and it is very fast on the internet. No need to spend more. I have a Dell computer and I was able to transfer my McAfee anti-virus software to this machine at no charge.

I recommended this Laptop to my girlfriend because I have a Toshiba Satellite L775 upgraded to Windows 10 and I love it, it has lasted me 5 years now, so keeping that in mind she bought this Laptop and she really likes it, I like the fact that it has a 1 TB hard drive in it and it is Windows 10. It is very user friendly and does exactly what she needs it to do. It is light weight and easy to carry. I am considering upgrading my Laptop to this one.

Lots of memory, very fast, great price, perfect for home use or school

I really like this lap top and it was inexpensive. Fast too.

For some unknown reason, Toshiba designed this laptop to operate in single channel mode rather than dual resulting in slower operation. It could be a far better product if they had. For the overall cost it is OK.

My latest purchase of the new Toshiba computer has been a good experience. It's light and easy to use. It has frozen up on me a few times so I'll have to keep monitoring to make sure it doesn't keep happening.

Very nice, light-weight, small travel laptop with full keyboard and 10-key. Not a high performance machine by any stretch, but ideal for the midpoint between a desktop computer and a smart phone. Keyboard was the most attractive feature for me, as it is actually large enough to touch type.

I got this laptop because the one I originally wanted was out of stock. I'm happy with my purchase though. It works well for an everyday laptop and didn't break the bank.

Needed a new laptop as my 2007 Toshiba needed a new battery just decided to get a new laptop and this one has been great for me, fast and great battery life

I purchased this for my mother to do email and facebook. It's a little slower then I thought but all in all great value

Easy to use. Perfect for what we needed it for. Great price point for this computer.

Works fine screen has pretty good resolution and didn't break the bank.

Easy to set up, easy to run; fast enough for normal computing work.

Price was good but I would have liked a few added capabilities.

I am not a gamer so this laptop is perfect for me.

I have to say in the end I am very pleased about my purchase. at first I wasn't sure if I was going to like the laptop it seemed confusing. but now It seems it is very easy to use and to figure out even if you are not sure what you are doing
