Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161X

 

The Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161X budget laptop houses the latest parts from Intel, but is held back by a mediocre user experience.

Fast Core i3 processor. Great battery life. Affordable. Good-looking design. Full size numeric keypad.

Loud mouse buttons. Keyboard design is not one of my favorites.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161 review: Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161

 

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161

The 15-inch ; is a good entry point for midsize laptops with Intel's second-gen Core i-series processors, and we've always liked the company's sleep-and-charge USB ports.

The design is strictly no-frills, and there are no high-speed data ports, such as USB 3.0 or eSATA. Plus, we hate the shortened spacebar on the keyboard.

Though not particularly inspiring, the basic 15-inch Toshiba Satellite L655 has a current-gen CPU and can be found for around $600, making it a worthwhile budget choice.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161RDX

 

Its red chassis and performance scores are sure to be a crowd pleaser, but the Toshiba Satellite L655-S5161RDX is missing something in terms of user experience.

Fast Core i3 processor. Great battery life. Affordable. Attention-grabbing design. Full size numeric keypad

Loud mouse buttons. Keyboard design is not one of my favorites.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5155

 

The Toshiba Satellite L655-S5155 makes up in user experience what it lacks in overall performance.

500GB hard drive. Spill-resistant keyboard. Little bloatware. Nice design.

Poorly placed touchpad. Below average speakers. Slow performance.

Toshiba Satellite L655D-S6051

 

There's no one standout feature on the Toshiba Satellite L655D-S6051 ($599.98 list), a low-end 15.6-inch laptop sold at Staples, other than the fact that it's based on AMD's new Vision platform. Performance from the AMD Turion II CPU is fair at best;...

Attractive design. Improved audio quality. Roomy keyboard and dedicated number pad. Responsive touchpad features multitouch gestures

Lackluster performance. Poor battery life. Clacky keyboard. No HDMI port

The polished design of the Toshiba Satellite L655D-S6051 makes it appear to be more than just a cheap laptop, but its performance and battery life prove it's nothing more than a low-cost option.

Toshiba Satellite L655-S5096

 

If cost is your primary concern when shopping for a laptop, the Toshiba Satellite L655-S5096, available at Best Buy, makes a compelling case for itself. Priced at $499.99 (list), it looks like a serious model that could legitimately command an even...

Large display. Keyboard includes 10-key pad. Attractive design

Mediocre performance. Not for 3D gaming

Priced just under $500, the Toshiba Satellite L655-S5096 is more physically attractive than it is an outstanding performer, but if you don't need to do anything too taxing there's nothing wrong with this sleek-looking laptop.

Toshiba Satellite L655D 12K

 

A home laptop with the looks – but does it have the brawn? There’s no denying that the Toshiba Satellite L655D 12K, exclusive to Dixons and PC World, stands out from the crowd. The bold, ...

Consumer review (cnet.com)

It just simply works.

 

Nice choice for a little word processing, a little spread sheet, a little internet, a little photo/music management, and a little price tag.

Had this for about a year and haven't experience any problems...just a nice, basic laptop. Doesn't weigh a ton. Adequate screen size. Not a performance screamer with a lot of features, but it only cost about $500 and it just works!

Non to date...

Update - Had Memory Problems - Fixed

 

A couple of days ago my laptop started exhibiting some weird problems. The laptop wouldn't successfully boot, but the lights would come on and the fan would spin up. Only way to stop was to hold down the power button to force a shutdown. Every other...

This laptop has good processing power and is easy to work on. The hard drive and RAM are easily accessible and do not require disassembly (beyond removing a cover). The graphics are good enough for modest needs. The CPU is adequate for most tasks. Web...

This PC has limitations in its processing power, but that's to be expected from a bargain laptop. The Toshiba-installed crapware takes some time to uninstall, and it's hard to know which programs are safe to remove without watching them for a while....
