Very forgiving laptop for klutz!
||Posted .I bought this laptop for myself after getting through college on hand-me-downs and I couldn't be happier. I actually bought one for my mother after seeing how good of a value it was. The battery life is great: average I'd say is 6-7 hrs but often could get 9 or more out of it. I accidentally left it in my car one winter's night and I was so worried that I killed the battery, but after a few charges it was back to normal! I've also dropped it a few times, either from my couch or off a table in my backpack, and there has been absolutely no issues or visible damage. The one complaint I have is sometimes the keys stick or otherwise do not type when I press them, especially if writing quickly... also, the HDMI cable port does not seem to fit in my particular laptop so I can't connect it to the TV.

Great all around, faster, laptop
||Posted .For the price this a great all around workhorse of a laptop. 750gb hard drive is more than enough hard drive space for your average, above average daily user. The satin, "grippy" finish feels great and secure in your hands and resist smudges. I've had good experience with Toshiba products in the past. The only thing I'll probably do, just because it's not too hard to do and is not very expensive is; add more ram and maybe upgrade hard drive to a solid state or a hybrid drive. Just to get a big jump in speed for not a lot of money. Laptop alone exceeds all of my expectations!

Overall great
||Posted .I actually bought two of these. My wife and I had recently had some major computer issues and we were looking to replace our old computers. I had used windows 8 before and hated it but was told windows 8.1 was more stable and ran well on these computers. Well it does. I am still not entirely impressed with windows 8.1 either. I am impressed with how solid these laptops have been. No issues with them at all. It did take a while to get them fully updated since windows releases a new update every other day it seemed like but I can't fault Toshiba for that. My wife has even been able to do some heavier gaming on them and not have any issues. Overall for the price I don think you can beat this laptop.

Awesome Lap Top for Home/work Use!!! :-)
||Posted .I bought this laptop to replace a 6 year old Core 2 laptop that I used for work as well as home use. This laptop blows my mind for a bunch of reasons. 1. Processing speed - AMD A6 - Quad Core 2. Display is Beautiful and the perfect size at over 15" 3. 750Gb HD 4. 4 Gb Memory, which for windows 8.1 is pushing the limits but Memory these days is cheap. 5. Runs all my Apps without any noticeable lag (Office, iTunes,, Chrome, and YES, it even runs my boy's MineCraft with no lag!!) 6. Performs all this wirelessly!! 7. HDMI Port is an added and wonderful bonus 8. 3 USB Ports - 2 - 2.0 and 1 - 3.0 9. Built-In DVD Drive a plus!! 10. Start-up and Shut-Down is quick and seemless 11. It's Not a workhorse, but for what I use it for (my work functions are all ran in the Cloud and my home functions are not processor intensive), It is worth more than what I paid!! I have no complaints regarding either my purchase or use f this product and will be purchasing another in the near future!!

Product great, Windows 8 not-so
||Posted .Bought this on the strength of the Toshiba brand. So far have been satisfied, but not so satisfied that I would recommend it over any other brand. I do like the size of the laptop and it serves me well for what I need. I have found it to jump out of the document I am working on - I believe it is due to sensitivity if I touch a wrong button. Perhaps that is just me. After years of using Windows XP, I find it hard to get used to Windows 8, which is already on the laptop. That will probably get better, but in the meantime it is frustrating to get back into documents being worked with.

Good laptop for everyday use.
||Posted .I had an older Toshiba laptop that finally crashed and needed a new one for everyday searching the web, reading emails and downloading pictures. This one is smaller than my old one but so far I really like it. The price was good and set up was not too hard. Windows 8 was all new for me and was somewhat confusing at first but I'm getting used to it. The sound quality of the speakers are not so good. I couldn't figure out how to adjust the tone so music didn't sound so good. My other Toshiba computer had a much better sound.The customer reviews really helped me make my decision!

Excellent no-frills budget laptop
||Posted .Purchased this laptop to replace an HP laptop used for business purposes. Requirements were ability to multitask (Excel, Word, Web Browser, Adobe) as multiple programs are open almost exclusively. This laptop handles typical business functionality without a problem. Definitely not for gaming, but if you need a business or personal use laptop at a low price then this is an excellent choice.

good computer for the price
||Posted .I can't complain about the computer itself. It boots up lightning fast, the battery lasts a long time, the display is great and the overall feel is very good. The only thing wrong with it is Windows 8.1. Everything about 8 is bad. Windows 95 was functionality perfection with limited ability, 98 was an improved 95 with a tendancy to crash, 2000 and Vista pretty much might as well not exist, XP was fantastic, 7 was XP with a different name, but 8......... is the epitome of what is wrong with my generation (millenials) It's user-friendliness is actually dumb-downedness, and the screen will randomly change away from what you are doing, for no reason.
