Toshiba Kira-101 review: High-res touchscreen, premium price

 

The thin, lightweight and stylish Kira-101's standout feature is its high-resolution 13.3-inch touchscreen. It delivers solid performance and good battery life, but the price is high.

High-resolution touchscreen ; Core i7 CPU, 8GB of RAM ; Good battery life ; Good sound output

Expensive ; Lacks legacy ports

The Toshiba Kira 101 is a thin, lightweight and stylish ultrabook that would not look out of place in a business meeting. The high-resolution 13.3-inch touchscreen is a highlight, alongside 8GB of RAM, a dual-core Core i7 processor and a 256GB SSD....

Toshiba's latest ultrabook has a killer screen but comes at a price

High-quality, high-resolution screen ; Fast Core i7 processor ; Smart-looking design ; Good touchpad ; Fantastic battery life

Lack of attention to detail ; Middling integrated graphics ; Average keyboard ; Inconsistent screen scaling ; High price

The Kira boasts of Harmon/Kardon speakers, and they’re certainly loud; despite the Toshiba’s small size, it pumped out enough volume to fill a small room. Quality is mixed, with thumping bass drums accompanied by tinny, loud high-hats – they’re...

Toshiba Kira-101 review

 

A dead-ringer for a MacBook but can it match the performance?

High-resolution screen; Superb battery life

Screen scaling issues; Average keyboard; Performance not great; Expensive

Despite the great battery life and design, the Kira can't quite capture the performance of the MacBook range.

Toshiba Kira 101

 

Size and weight are excellent given the performance. Battery life is commendable. It's just like a MacBook only fast and with a good operating system and some ports!

Quite expensive, but buying refurbished was a great experience.
