Toshiba Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-EZ2201

Those with only basic needs might find the $699 (as of 2/7/08) Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-EZ2201 acceptable. It's the lowest-priced laptop in our recently tested sub-$1000 group, but it has very modest performance. Rather slow and with short battery...

Excellent speakers ; Supports two side-by-side hard drives

Sub par speed and battery life ; Cheap-feeling keyboard and dim screen

Bargain priced laptop has sweet built-in speakers, but it's too slow for demanding users.

Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-EZ2203X review: Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-EZ2203X

Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-EZ2203X

Inexpensive; sleek but businesslike design; broad, bright display; comfortable keyboard.

Poor multitasking performance; unimpressive battery life; glossy screen finish produces reflections; lacks media controls and quick-launch buttons; weak speakers.

The inexpensive Toshiba Satellite Pro A210 laptop offers enough features and performance oomph for basic business tasks, but its AMD processor may disappoint hard-core multitaskers.

Toshiba Satellite Pro A210 Review

Toshiba just released the Satellite Pro series notebook line, which is a toned down business version of their popular Satellite models. Some of the key changes include the loss of the glossy cover, black instead of silver keyboard, and the loss of some...

Nice bright screen with good color reproduction ; Quiet CPU fan ; Nice sleek design ; Case temperatures are barely above room temperature

Second HD bay with no connectors ; Weak graphics performance

The cooling system on the A210 is very refined, and near silent during use. Case temperatures were kept to a minimum, and the palmrests were basically room temperature even have hours of running. The only hotspots on the notebook were the center of the...

Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-1AZ review

Those with only basic needs might find the £399 Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-1AZ acceptable. It's a low-priced laptop with modest performance.

Considering that much better notebooks cost only a little more, it's hard to recommend the Toshiba Satellite Pro A210-1AZ with much enthusiasm. On the other hand, we've never heard a better-sounding notebook at this price. Music lovers, at least, could...

Toshiba - Satellite A210-12U

Toshiba's Satellite range of notebooks has undergone a refresh recently, with several new series of models added to the range. One of these is the A210 series, a stylish range of laptops aimed at the home ...

Toshiba's A210-12U would make an ideal laptop for people not interested in playing games on their notebook but wanting a system that does all the basics well. It offers a great blend of build quality and price.
