Consumer review (newegg.com)

Was Great ... Now [censored]

 

At around 13 months old the screen and digitizer began to separate. This causes poor visibility and renders touch-screen and 2-in-1 features COMPLETELY USELESS. Because the warranty had expired, Toshiba refused to cover any portion of repair costs,...

WARNING!!! Toshiba damaged my laptop and refuses to take responsibility

 

Hi Sir, Good day! I already received a reply from our depot facility and they said, they are not taking responsibility for the vent damage because the only repair that we performed was to reseat KB cable only and that area is not near the vent, it is...

NONE

I use to think Toshiba was a good company that sold quality products and cared about their customers. WAS I WRONG! Toshiba sells poor quality laptops and has TERIBLE CUSTOMER NON-Service! I ordered a Toshiba back in June of 2015 by January 2016 the...

Should have listen to the reviews DO NOT BUY THIS!!

 

I've noticed more keys are giving me trouble as time goes by. How do you screw up a keyboard???

Nice screen, fast boot and fast processor.

They make it difficult to upgrade the hard drive if you want. And like most reviews the certain keys are starting to work intermittently. Mostly on the left side of the keyboard, plus the n and enter keys (both of them). Personally I will not be buying...

I WAS a loyal Toshiba Customer

 

I've purchased 10 Toshiba laptops in the past eight years. That's why when the first two arrived defective, I gave Toshiba a third chance. I'm sorry I did. Two days ago after only six months of use, some of my keys randomly won't work. Toshiba will fix...

Nice Speakers, SSD,

Poor Quality workmanship and Quality Control

I WAS a big fan of Toshiba. Now, not so much

 

Toshiba will repair it but I will pay for shipping and it could take two weeks! I may end up purchasing another computer because I can't go without for two weeks. The new computer won't be a Toshiba. It's a shame that their quality has suffered so...

Very good specs, SSD, and touchscreen.

I've been a loyal Toshiba customer for the past 10 years (8 or 9 computers puchased). Always happy with them. I purchased the Satellite P55 and it took three tries before I was shipped a working computer. It worked fine for 6 months until keys randomly...

Avoid, and I Mean It!

 

I have owned this PC for several months now, and more and more problems continue to crop up with it. The first unit I purchased had to be returned because of a defective keyboard. The replacement has considerable issues with the touchpad, including...

Nice audio

Toshiba Satellite Radius P55W Non operable out of the box

 

Geek Squad informed me , after checking with wireless and Ethernet, that it would not connect to the internet because the Windows 10 had a problem. This one is DOA and due for exchange. This was a boat anchor albeit a lightweight one; maybe the second...

Looks good, turned on, .... Went into vicious circles of demanding my Windows Account Number or informing me that there was no internet available.

I bought the Laptop and whatever other fold back positions 8/20/15. I unboxed it after arriving home. I started with step 1 by plugging it in to the power source. Step 2 was to connect to the internet. IMPOSSIBLE, NEVER HAPPENED!!!!!

Great specs but......

 

I would rather have spent another $200 or $300 on another brand and not had to deal with the terribly inferior keyboard problems. I advise you to take advantage of the opportunity to do so.

Superior specs for the price. Fast speed/boot time/video processing. Tablet to laptop mode is nice, works fine most of the time. Lightweight and thin.

Have had 2 keyboards fail in 3 months. Results in return to Toshiba service center, hours on phone waiting to be connected, and loss of my computer for a week at a time. The first tech I talked to asked me which keys weren't working and I said it would...

Phenomenal Deal!

 

Buy it!

Unbelievable deal! Best laptop for this money. Similar laptops cost hundreds of dollars more. Super fast, great battery. Haven't experienced any keyboard issues....

Wifi can be a little weak sometime. If it starts bothering me I will just buy a usb wifi card and it will be 100% again.
