Toshiba - Satellite Radius 2-in-1 15.6" 4K Ultra HD Touch-Screen Laptop - Intel Core i7 - 12GB Memory - 1TB Hard Drive - Carbon Gray

The obvious selling point of this notebook was the 4K ultra HD display. At best buy, this one stood out with the most beautiful display. And a price that I could handle, at around $1,100. This product looks and feels like quality. The keyboard is the best I've ever used for a laptop, and not flimsy at all. They keys are just the right size and "al-dente" feel. I was surprised at the quality of the Harmon Kardon speakers with the Dolby DTS sound. At the store I didn't notice it much, but when I took the laptop home... I was really impressed. It's not audiophile grade by a long shot, but for laptop speakers my expectations are exceeded. The sound is extremely clear, and listening to speech was a pleasure, as well as playing my favorite old PC games like Sim City 4k. I'm surprised at how much nuance and timbrality they could get out of the sound through such tiny speakers... you can hear different layers of sounds and textures, cymbals are bright and resonant, and the mids have a warm, musical presence that makes strings and synth pads sounds draw you in and even hypnotize you a bit. I was surprised at this from a laptop. Overall, the sound is of course on the tinny side, with not much bass... but it does have a character to it and seemed to bring the sound to life in my favorite vintage PC games. I'm not absolutely blown away by speed, but I am content with it. The processor is an intel core i7, along with 12 gb of ram and a 1 TB hard drive (not solid state). With multiple anti-virus apps running (McAffee and the Webroot which best buy gave for free with this purchase), the computer takes a little time to boot... maybe 20-30 seconds. Web browsing is very zippy, and videos all pop up in an instant. Battery life is marginal... so far I get 3-4 hours on a single charge. The 4K HD makes it so much easier to read and make out text that I don't think I'll ever go back to a regular screen. This blows everything away I've seen so far, even the retina displays on Apple products. I can't wait until more 4K ultra HD content comes out that I can watch. Overall, I am very happy with this laptop. I have had none of the display driver issues that other people are talking about, and so far have had no problems with wifi going in and out. This laptop has mostly exceeded my expectations. I originally was set on getting a Microsoft surface 4 or a Dell XPS 13 from review hype... but I saw the display of this notebook and was instantly sold. It feels like one solid piece with the brushed aluminum, and the touch screen is wonderful... no problems with it not being sensitive enough. I guess we'll see if this laptop holds up in times to come. I hope to get at least 5-7 years out of it.

This laptop is probably a little more than what the average college or high school student might need. I have to do a lot of data entry for work so the number key pad is a necessity for me. I also do a lot of split screen work so it really helps having the 15.6” display. If you run a lot of programs at once, I’d recommend this laptop considering it has a 12GB ram. Ultimately, this laptop is a good fit for someone who does a lot of multitasking, runs a lot of programs at once, and wants a computer with full functionality and a crystal clear display. I rate this product a four out of five stars. It has a sleek design, feels light weight yet strong, and has by far the best display I have yet to see on a laptop. The touch screen is a nice feature plus being able to flip the screen all the way around. I also like that the keyboard automatically lights up when you start typing or press a key. It times out after a little bit to help conserve battery life. For me, the 12GB Ram is a big plus since I have a lot of programs running at the same time. I can’t imagine I’ll ever run out of memory either considering it has a terabyte to work with. The battery on this laptop seems about the same as others I have used. It usually lasts 4 to 6 hours, just depends what you’re doing. I’d also recommend a warranty or accidental drop plan if available. The whole bottom is sealed up so no replacing batteries yourself on this one. When I first got the laptop a couple weeks ago I had problems with the display driver restarting quite a bit and the touch pad for the mouse would become unresponsive at times. The computer has downloaded numerous updates since I bought it and all the bugs seems to have worked out since then. If it wasn’t for the problems right away I’d give it five stars. It’s very frustrating paying a lot of money for what I consider an above-average quality laptop and having performance and operating issues from the get-go. Overall, the pros definitely out-weigh the cons and I would recommend this to a friend. Just be aware you might have to do some updates before you get to use your new laptop with its 4K high resolution touch-screen display.

If you are looking for a 4K in convertible form factor with a larger than 13 in display, then this is it. I have had this laptop for just a week, and I love it. The reason all the 4K offerings in smaller than 15.6 in format don't work for me is that such high resolution is too difficult for the eyes to tell from laptop distance, and the fonts and icons tend to be too smaller. 4K really needs to be used like a tablet, about 1 foot or so from the eyes to appreciate, or it needs a larger screen size, 15.6 or more. So this offering is a more rational setup for a laptop. As a 15.6 in laptop, it is very thin, and not heavy, easy to carry around. The display is bright enough for most in door use, and at night, even running the display brightness at 50% is sufficient. I know the Apple screens have brighter screens, but that's only needed in a bright showroom. When using at home, too bright is not actually comfortable for the eyes, as homes are not as brightly lit as Best Buy store. This laptop in 6th gen i7 is very fast, and since I had a Samsung 840 Evo SSD lying around, I replaced the stock 5400rpm drive with the SSD, and the responsiveness of the laptop is blazing fast, plus no drive spinning and seeking noise. The lone fan of the laptop is very quiet most of the time, and the bottom of the laptop is not hot on uncomfortable to place on the lap. The aluminum carbon grey top is gorgeous. I love this laptop.

Ok, first off, let me start by saying that i shopped around a lot for a laptop, and couldn't find one that i liked for myself. One day i came across the Toshiba 4k HD laptop. The screen resolution is amazing, which will definitely work for my photography. The 12gb is plenty for multitasking and if your a person to switch back and forth through programs and windows. Another thing that i noticed is that it is very sleek, a plus for me for storing it in my tech bag. Only down fall, is that it doesn't have an optical drive. Don't worry! I went out and purchased an external blue ray drive for it which was also thin and convenient for only $79. The blue ray movies look stunning on the HD screen. The keyboard is definitely easy to navigate and type on. Also, it is backlit, so for a person who is up late and doesn't want to have a room light on, it is very useful. The computer loads up very fast from being turned on. If you are looking for a very professional computer for business or even a computer for a student i would definitely recommend this one. Furthermore, the computer is a 2 n 1. You can use it as a computer or even a tablet. Tablet style makes it very useful if your on the go and in tight places, like the car. From reading all the comments below before purchasing, i took a chance and i love it. I haven't had a bad experience with this laptop yet. So far it has been very reliable. My keyboard hasn't been sticking, i haven't had any problems. Long story short: its a great laptop, feels sturdy and reliable, it can handle multitasking with 12 GB of RAM, ample storage with 1TB hard drive, 4K Ultra HD screen resolution at 3840x2160, touchscreen capable, and fast with Intel i7 processor

I purchased this laptop as a replacement to my old Toshiba Satellite work laptop. My old laptop was a workhorse for 5 years. Not a single issue or complaint. I purchased this one for work as well, no gaming, no heavy designer apps. I was looking for a decent laptop, with enough power and reliability. Unfortunately, it started freezing and crashing the very same day I bought it. When I looked up this laptop on Best Buy, I noticed 3.7 star review rating versus 4.3, at the store, where I purchased it. At the time of the purchase this product didn't have as much reviews as it has now, so I guess more and more problems were unveiled. Impressions after 3 weeks of ownership. Pros: The display has a great resolution. The touch screen is pretty responsive. The keyboard with backlight is pretty comfortable. It has a pretty slick design. Price Cons: Regular Issues with freezing and crashing. Although the display is very clear, it is not bright enough. For 12GB of RAM with cori I7 of 6th generation, this laptop is definitely slow. The touchpad requires some time to get used to, even though the size of it is good, sometimes I miss the buttons. It is edgy and not comfortable to use from certain angles. Now, I am trying to do a smart shopping, looking at reviews, before going to Best Buy to exchange it for another laptop.

I brought this in the January sales and was so excited as I'd been waiting to replace my 10yr old laptop. After extensive research on the net I'd originally settled on a Dell, BestBuys dont sell the model I had my sights set on and the price didn't come down in the sale so I was delighted when I found this laptop in Bestbuy for a fraction of the price but with near enough the same specification as the Dell. Thought I was onto a good thing and loved the 4k touch screen and when the BestBuy sales rep told me the battery life on the Toshiba was 10hrs I was sold and ready to start loving this new laptop. Sadly it's been nothing but disappointing. Ok, so whats gone wrong so far: 1. Blue screen with a load white symbols covering the whole screen, laptop then rebooted. I've seen this twice now and both instances were light use. 2. Runs out of memory, locks up and then has to be rebooted. I've seen this at least twice now too, no plausible explanation, there's 12GB in this machine! 3. Display Driver crashes, every single use. It locks up the screen and then resets. 4. Battery life, NOT the boasted 10hrs but more likely 2-3hrs. 5. WiFi - Struggles to connect and when it does the speed is so unbearably slow I have to type something in google search and then leave it to think about it. The worst time I've had to wait when booking an airplane ticket was 5minutes just to load the availability page, my tablet loaded the same page in seconds. I'm travelling outside of the U.S for a few months so unable to return to store atm. This product is so useless right now I've a good mind to simply chuck it in the bin!

We got this laptop while having a dedicated laptop and tablet, but noticed we typically like using the laptop more. So figured, why not get a convertible, so when we need to use tablet features we can on the same device. The hinges are sturdy (thus far), the touch screen seems to work great, and it comes with 12GB of memory which is great for photography and photo editing. The laptop does come with a new Intel 6th Gen i7, however, what seems to be choking it down is the mechanical hard drive that is included. Its a very poor performing hard drive, and really kills the moment having a decent mobile CPU installed. So right away, we ordered an SSD to hopefully have the ability of utilizing the full potential of this laptop. The 4K screen is really nice and again is a really nice machine for basic photograph and/or video editing and watching movies. The only other down-side to this machine is the touch-pad having gone pretty wonky only after a couple weeks of using it. Probably one of the lowest quality touch-pads I have used, but it does have it perks as well. Touch-pads typically come down to personal preference and what you utilize the machine for when using it portability.

I have had this computer for three weeks now and at first there were some small annoyances I could live with, such as a super sensitive touch pad that would randomly zoom and reduce the screen. As I prefer a mouse, this was livable. The keypad (for anyone used to older laptops) is another challenge, but not insurmountable. It is very easy to triple/quadruple letters effortlessly, if you are a little heavy handed with your typing, so learn to proof-read everything until you adjust your typing. There have been some freezing issues early on as well, but those have seemed to dissipate. Lately, there has been a significant issue with the wifi connection. My computer sits 20 feet from my 6 month old Netgear router with no obstacles between. First, I lose connectivity, even though the signal is full, and then my wif becomes disabled. Then the F12 button, which is supposed to be used to turn wifi on/off, works great at putting the computer into airplane mode, but not at turning wifi on. It won't do it. Go into network settings and click on enable wifi and nothing happens. Turn off the computer and the wifi comes back on, not a great work around, especially if you are in the middle of downloading software. At this point I went on-line looking for a solution, and all the people with problems with Toshiba wifi came rolling out. The most common solution, outside of getting a different computer, was to turn off the internal wifi and buy a usb wifi adapter. I wish I had seen these reviews while researching this product.
