"this is a fair laptop for its price and age. Needs more ram when you get it or it is kinda slow, it says my wifi connection is terrible though it is in the other room. Heavy. Speakers rock though I don't mix beats or all that. DO NOT PLLAY MINECRAFT ON THIS
I play mindcraft for a little bit than all the blocks change. Toshiba, make the same version of this laptop but more ram and make it a part gamer part tech wiz laptop so the price isn't sky high from the gaming part of the laptop."

Touchscreen problems April 11, 2013

"After about a month into purchasing this laptop I had issues with the screen. It was like someone was touching the screen constantly (the spot would sometimes be e same and other times it would jump around). At first I could fix the problem by forcing a restart or taking out the battery, but then I had to restart more and more times. I finally figured out how to turn off the touch screen (device manager, human interface, and disabling each
of the options until I got to the touch screen).
Overall I haven't found a lot of perks of windows 8 over Windows 7 especially since you cannot actually use this PC as a tablet. Otherwise the computer suits my needs for school and is relatively lightweight although a tad bulkier than I'd hoped for the price."

"Bought this laptop for occasional access to email and internet while travelling. Wireless speed is good and and overall performance is better than expected for the price. However, like many, I absolutely hate Windows 8. Not only makes a computer look and act like a cell phone, but eats battery life a lot."

"This laptop does everything I wanted it to do. I bought it primarily for communication on skype. The sound is excellent for a lap top. And the built in microphone works very well. It works very well for my purpose. It took me a while to get used to the touch screen and windows 8. I am very pleased with the product."

"Before I bought this Toshiba laptop. I did a lot of research on which brand would be right for me......including speaking with several computer gurus, geek, technicians...all of whom suggested Toshiba first...Samsung second. So, realizing they were much more knowledgeable about computers than I, I bought Toshiba laptop and a Samsung tablet. I am very happy with both.....they are easy to operate and can diagnose problems.....practically fixing them on the spot."

"Took first one back because case was separated in shipping. This one is very hard to open due to flimsy case design. Generally works okay but WAY TO MANY added junk from Toshiba that had Microsoft buffaloed trying to load Office 2013. It took Microsoft over two hours to clean up the new machine enough to let it load.
No backlit keyboard. No number pad. I made a mistake but luckily have a much better laptop and will use this as a backup machine."

"This is my 3rd Toshiba laptop, only because my 8 yr old one's screen finally died. Going from window xp to windows 8 is taking some learning & getting use to. But- love the touch screen. Did not realize how slow my old laptop was. This one is fast. Hoping for another 8 yrs or more out of this one."

"I was unable to use two programs after downloading them. I like the touch screen and the Windws 8 but the overall quality of the laptop stinks. I use my computer primarily for school, I attend online classes. After two days I could no longer even sign into my school site through the desktop and when accessing it through the Internet Explorer live tile I could sign in and view but could not respond in any way. I cannot use the laptop for the primary purpose I purchased it so I am very disappointed in it."

"The machine meets the expectations, but understabdably sluggish (afterall, it is just core i3). Touch is good. the mouse clicks is spotty (it missed the left click a few times). Driver updates are cumbersome (partly Windows update mechanism I'd think)."

"The touch-screen is literally falling out of its case. The case is so light that if you touch the touch-screen, it tips the computer. Windows 8 is the biggest disappointment with this system. Never respond to an "impulse buy" when it comes to computers."

I am able to use the keyboard and the touchscreen, both with ease. The touchscreen makes some of the Windows 8 features easier to use. . I now have a smart phone, a tablet, and a smart laptop"

"This is the first TOSHIBA I have owned. It was recommend to me by a friend. I wanted a small laptop for traveling, to stay up on my emails and maps for the travels. So far it has been easy to use, with a good picture on screen. Very light and easy to carry. The touch screen is very enjoyable and liked the price."

"First the good - The touch screen works perfectly well. For an entry level window 8 product that was one of my concerns. It did not need to be. Very happy with that aspect of the device. It is very light weight, and does have kind of a cheap feel, but not a deal breaker by any means. My biggest problems encountered in the first month of use is that the computer lags behind on occasion. Like it is taking a few seconds or more to 'catch up'. I also have it drop WiFi connection on occasion which is bothersome. Other then that I am very happy so far. There is definitely a learning curve with Windows 8, but that has nothing to do with the computer. I am also a bit disappointed that their is no built in Bluetooth."

"Nice compact size. I like the touch screen and the touch pad works well. Bought it on sale at a good value, because I didn't want to spend alot. Haven't got to try the Push to TV yet, because I am told that the WiDi reciever doesn't work with windows 8, yet. I don't use this for anything more than email and surfing the web from the living room. Overall we like it."

Definitely a plus that I can connect to my Xbox info with the Game app and check everything out. The touch screen feature is wonderful as well! This is an all around great laptop! 2 thumbs up Toshiba!!! :)"

The only thing is that my husband has a mouse operated computer and I'm always trying to touch the screen and it just doesn't work with his computer."

"Been using Toshiba laptops for years. This is our fourth. This is an aestheticly pleasing machine. The touch screen and thousands of available apps makes this an exciting addition to my tech resources. Getting around it takes a little getting used to, but with my wife's help I'll get over that. I love this machine!"

"I bought this laptop a week ago, I just love it so much, starting from the outside all the way to the inside. The case design is great made of aluminum it wont scratch like the older models. The intel core 13 is super fast, the best part is that you can upgrade the memory up to 16GB. The touch screen is another great feature that I love."
