    Great Buy for an Entry Level Laptop

    If you are looking for a good entry level laptop for basic computing tasks the Toshiba Satellite will fill the bill. Not intended for high end use with graphic intense demands. Good speed for everyday computer tasks. Large capacity HD. Decent build quality for a unit under $400.00. This is not a $1500.00 machine, so don't compare it to one. It has a Super Multi DVD burner, for those looking to play or burn CD or DVD media, that is not found on most laptops these days. If your budget is small and you need a basic laptop the C55t-C5300 will meet your needs.

    I tried to purchace a laptop online and thank god my credit card would not go threw so I decided to go into the store and was greeted by a gentleman who was extremely helpful and a sweetheart I explained I need a good computer for school. I showed him the one l wanted to purchase and he told me if im trying to attend school thats not the correct laptop for me. He then showed me some laptop that would be better for me although it was more money It was definitely well worth the money the only problem I am having is that its a pretty slow but that could be because of my internet so therefore I will not point fingers untill I visit best buy and see whats going on with my laptop.Overall great experience! Was very satisfied!! And really appreciated the honesty and the help I received I will defentley he back to purchase more items I need!

    I bought this laptop because I had problems with my old one after upgrading to windows 10, and I must say I've been pleasantly surprised. The battery life is great, the processor is plenty fast, and the price was very affordable. You can buy faster machines but why pay the extra?

    I wanted a touchscreen computer with good speed and ample memory at an affordable price, and I found it! I don't like the sharp edge of the front of the computer since after typing awhile the edge hurts my wrists, but that would be my only complaint. Good buy!!

    Nice Laptop for the Money!

    Depending on your needs - this laptop could be the answer. It's a solid choice for the money. The 6GB of memory is good and the 1TB storage is enough to keep plenty of files, but the Core I3 processor might be a little under-performing if you're a gamer or typically open many files at a time. But if you're just looking to do some bookkeeping, document processing, email & web surfing, then this machine will serve your needs without emptying your change drawer.

    Great Laptop

    Overall really nice unit. Lightweight, thin, fast, has a DVD drive, chicklet keyboard, touch screen, good sound for a laptop...I like it a lot. When I first got it I was a bit disappointed in the screen because it is not as bright/vivid as my previous laptop, but now that I've had it for about I week I actually prefer it; while it is not as vivid as the previous unit it is less fatiguing on the eyes and has more detail. One thing I will say (I've seen a couple other people have this same problem) is that the wi-fi was cutting out periodically. When I was connected to the internet I was losing the signal like once or twice per hour. I went into device manager and updated the driver for the lan card and that fixed the problem, so that is something you may want to do as well. Overall very nice unit I recommend it for a fairly inexpensive laptop. Here the directions for updating the driver: In the Windows search at the bottom left corner type: "Device Manager" Click on "Device Manager Control Panel" Go down to "Network Adapters" and click on the > to the left RIGHT click "Broadcom 802.11" and select "update driver" Once the update has been installed completely shutdown the computer and restart it.

    I bought this laptop on sale. For around $400 (tax included and a $5 donation to ST. Jude). I am very pleased with what I got. Screen is very nice, love the feel of the keyboard. Has plenty of storage. Perhaps my only complaint is that there is no backlit keyboard. But that isn't really a complaint... It's a $400 laptop! I would recommend it. You won't get much better for the price.

    I bought this laptop to become my work/school computer. My old cpu became the kids computer for schoolwork and for play. This laptop is amazing. Love the fact that it is touchscreen. It is fast, lightweight, and easy to use. My wife has a HP laptop that was sooooo slow out of the box. This Toshiba is lightning fast. It's taking some time to get used to Windows 10, but it seems very intuitive.

    Laptop has plenty of space, operates at a decent speed and connect to your internet and holds the connection. Windows 10 with the touch screen is an added advantage. The laptop works equally well as a touch screen with the mouse and with the touch pad. I would recommend this to anyone needing the computer.

    it's a fast computer operating in MS10 that uses good old programs while implementing apps to get a good mix of both, and the touch screen comes in handy for programs that involve lots of mouse work. my only thing is that the built in track pad is a little hard to click, and the battery life is not great, but this laptop is a little too big for me to want to travel with it. other than that it's a really good laptop.

    Probably the best laptop for the money and the touch screen can be switched to Tablet mode making it function in the same manner as your smart phone. The HD is large enough for just about anything you want to store and it connects to your phone, or other peripherals, via Bluetooth making transfer of files, photos and such a snap. The only thing I can think of that would enhance the user experience would be a lighted keyboard.

    Pros: As a professional student who's in class for 7+ hours a day, the 8-9 hour battery life is amazing! I run multiple programs simultaneously (Acrobat DC, Word, and plenty of Internet tabs) with no problem, and never have to lug around the charger. I also never expected to use the touch screen, but I actually love it. It's very accurate and it helps to avoid loud mouse sounds (see below), while also giving it the feel of a much nicer computer. The 1TB storage is great and far exceeds my needs. Cons: It's a little slow for its processing specs but not so much that it's really noticeable unless you're head-to-head downloading with someone else. The two main problems I experience are that the mouse is very loud when clicked and the Internet drops a lot more frequently than with my old hp. It reconnects in a minute or so, it's just an inconvenience. Overall, for the price, you really get your money's worth and then some. My hp crapped out mid-semester and this Toshiba has been a wonderful replacement that's held its own despite being 1/4th the price. I would definitely recommend this computer for students or anyone looking for a basic needs office computer.

    I'm a little late to the party for reviewing this thing, but I wanted to mention a few things. I've owned this for over 2 years now, and it's the most reliable PC I've ever used. Only 1 BSOD at startup the entire time I've owned this thing. ONE! I'm used to constant restarts and all sorts of problems with computers, but this laptop has been more than worth the money spent. Plenty of storage space, fast enough for my needs, DVD drive, EXTREMELY QUIET, and it's as reliable as can be. I always buy Toshiba products in the future.

    Bought it for my wife, she is primary user, but I use it also. As usual, with all computers, it is loaded with 'freeware' , so step 1 is to stop all of it from loading. I did not delete anything in case there is a need in the future. Also, for the near term, due to the huge HDD, space is not an issue. Touch screen is fun. All in all a good Win10 machine

    I'm not very informed when it comes to technology so I read all the reviews before purchasing this laptop. The reviews were good and the price was excellent so I ordered it. I love it! The touch screen is a great feature, it moves quickly and I have the option to direct connect to my router if need be. I would recommend this laptop to anyone in college or for basic use.

    I use this computer for preparing lessons for my class. I like that it still has a DVD drive so I can use the materials that came with my textbooks. Love the touch screen! The matte finish case does scratch easily as I have seen others say. For my purposes this is a fantastic computer. Great price too.

    This laptop is everything I was looking for at a great price - 1 TB of storage and it is able to perform all of my everyday tasks. The touchscreen is a nice added bonus. I have not run into any problems thus far and would recommend this laptop for anyone looking to not spend too much without sacrificing on options.
