Customer Reviews for Satellite® S870

Not as good as my last Toshiba

POSTED BY: , Kentucky
For Model: Satellite S875D-S7350
Overall rating: 3.0 out of 5

"I have constant issues logging in to the internet, I am always having to reboot the laptop for whatever reason. My last Toshiba laptop was amazing for 6 years. Very disappointed with this one."

"Pretty slow start up. Otherwise, it's a good machine. Large fonts on the keyboard are well thought of. Overpriced, as all Toshibas are, but hopefully will last for years, as all Toshibas do. My first Toshiba laptop was bought over 10 years ago, and it still works!"

works for me

"I think this laptop is great. Having previously purchased a windows 8 computer that was plagued with problems, I began looking for a windows 7 machine. I eventually purchased this laptop because of the windows 7 option, the dedicated G.P.U. and the relative affordability. The computer has proven to be very fast , and performs flawlessly. I have had no problems what so ever. I am using a nearly 5 year old Toshiba laptop that has been very reliable and problem free and I expect this one to be the same. In my opinion, windows 8 is absolutely the worst operating system that Microsoft has ever produced, far worse than Vista. On the other hand Windows 7 may be the best. Also Windows 7 professional is a pretty clean install with no added bloat ware. A recovery disk for windows 8 is included so you can go that route if you feel like adding a lot of frustration to your life or Microsoft ever gets it's act together and fixes a truely buggy nightmare. Customise it, get windows 7 and I think that you will be very happy, as I am."

"This is the worst laptop that I have ever owned. The CPU limps along, the hard drive is slow, and the keyboard is a mess. I have to pound on the keys to get them to respond, and sometimes I get double character entries. This laptop is a real disappointment."

Great Laptop with a few issues

"So I got this laptop to do some office work on as well as some light gaming and ended up using it as my main computer. The laptop is fairly light and seems to run fairly cool unlike some other laptops which I have used that have burned my leg just sitting on my lap for an extended time. On the work side everything works as you would expect but on the gaming side I have been really impressed. It has run games I wouldn't think it would have like a champ, and even though I might not be able to run some on Ultra settings being able to game on the go with settings on medium and 30-42 fps is pretty nice. The only issues I have run into so far is the track pad and the wireless card. Every now the track pad will go unresponsive for no apparent reason. This isn't too big a deal for me as I use a wireless mouse and don't run into the problem with it, but it is still an issue and I might just need to update drivers but I'm pretty sure they are all current. The other issue is the wireless card. It seems to not see my network every now and then. Seems like I have to uninstall the device form the manage hardware and reboot and it will pick it back up. Now this might be my router through FiOS or it might be the card. At any rate both of those issues have been the reason for the 4 star rating and not a 5. If you are looking for a great laptop this Toshiba seems to be a good solid laptop. I haven't had a game it hasn't been able to handle yet and I have been more the happy with the performance and battery life. Now Windows 8...that is another story but I am getting used to it."

Pretty Quick

"I was mad that I could no longer buy a windows 7 that came standard on a new laptop. I was wanting to upgrade from my 2008 desktop with windows Vista, so I sucked it up and bought this laptop with windows 8. I am actually surprised at how easy it was to learn and adapt to all the new features. The few things I dislike about this laptop is every time I try and scroll down on any page the side bar search power thing pops up and gets in my way. I also do not like that the laptop itself is metal and not plastic but that is my own weirdness because my metal watch hits up against it and makes an awful noise! I am having a difficult time adjusting to the keys. When I type I miss keys constintally. But I am sure I will get use to that. As far as the quality of the speed, amazing. If it weren't for my wifi this computer would be lightning fast!!"
