Toshiba Satellite P845T-S4310

With its decent performance and admirable feature set, the Toshiba Satellite P845T-S4310 is a good option for anyone on the market for a touch-enabled Windows 8 laptop.

Ten-point touch screen. WiDi. Built-in optical drive. Decent performer.

Shallow travel on keyboard. Keyboard not backlit. Bloatware.

Toshiba Satellite P845T-S4310 review: a little too bulky for the price

This laptop has nice speakers, a usable touchscreen, and some expensive-looking design elements. But it's just too bulky and underwhelming (performance-wise) to justify the almost-$1000 price tag.

Decent video and audio encoding performance ; Touchscreen is smooth and accurate

Overall performance isn't so hot ; Display looks a little washed out

Toshiba adds touch to the Satellite P845t

With the looks of a Portege and a touch screen, this Windows 8 laptop is part of a big wave of touch-enabled PCs.

Review Toshiba Satellite P845T-S4310 Notebook

Affordable Touchscreen. Throwing in a touch-enabled display on an

Attractive aluminium case; Good CPU performance; Sensitive touchscreen; Large touchpad; Decent speakers; HDD and RAM easily accessible

Lid sensitive to pressure; Keyboard with soft touch and short travel; Rather slow system performance; Graphics performance reduced while running on battery; Some ports not ideally placed for right-handers; Glossy screen should be brighter for outdoor...

At $700, the P845T is one of the least expensive touch-enabled Windows 8 notebooks currently available.

Toshiba Satellite P845T

An affordable 14-inch Windows 8 laptop with premium touches, an optical drive and touch screen.

Affordable ; Premium touches like backlit keyboard ; Excellent sound

Heavy and bulky ; Average screen ; Mediocre build quality ; So-so typing experience ; Poorly configured touchpad

An SDXC card reader resides at the front, while the left houses 3.5mm microphone and headphone jacks, a third USB 3.0 port, and video outputs for HDMI and VGA. Wireless connections are catered for by Wi-Fi N and Bluetooth 4.0.

Toshiba Satellite P845t-101 review - 14in laptop is a multimedia powerhouse

It's a little disappointing that the Toshiba Satellite P845t-101's screen provides only 1366x768 resolution, rather than full HD, but it's very bright and clear – in fact, you can turn the brightness down to 50 percent and it's perfectly usable.

Mobility clearly isn't a strong point with the Toshiba Satellite P845t-101, and the touchscreen is likely to get only occasional use. However, the Satellite performs well enough for undemanding users and is a good choice for anyone that wants a...

Toshiba Satellite P845T

While we've seen plenty of ultra portable Ultrabooks recently, the Toshiba Satellite P845T is a Windows 8 machine designed for everyday use as your one and only computer. It packs a 14-inch screen and top notch specs including an Intel Core processor...

We have little complaint about the Toshiba Satellite P845T itself: once it’s in front of you, it gets the job done without ever getting the way of what’s on the screen, and it’s hard to do more than that. That said, rivals have managed that for much...

Toshiba Satellite P845t-102 review

The top dog in Toshiba's P845 series offers a 14-inchtouchscreen, DVD drive, silvery good looks and the latest Windows 8operating system -- but is that enough?

Sleek textured look, large hard drive, loud speakers

On the slow side, kinda chunky

The Toshiba Satellite P845 is a solid enough workhorseand a decent introduction to Windows 8 but it's on the chunky sideand doesn't really do enough to distinguish itself at thisprice.

REVIEW: Toshiba Satellite P845t-101 Windows 8 touchscreen laptop

The Windows 8 revolution is in full swing, with every laptop manufacturer worth their salt putting out touchscreen-packing laptops. Toshiba's Satellite P845t-101 is one of the first to hit the market, offering a 10-point touchscreen display alongside a...

It's a solid start to touchscreen Windows 8 laptops for Toshiba then. The Satellite P845t-101 handles touch input with ease, and you'll find yourself perhaps surprised at how often you'll be swiping away at the screen. The build of the laptop itself...

Toshiba Satellite P845T-S4310 review

The Toshiba Satellite P845t-S4310 is a pretty nice computer, with nice speakers, a useable touchscreen, and some expensive-looking design elements. But I cant help but think that a computer this bulky and under-performing needs a lower price-point. For...
