Reviews for the Toshiba CB30-A3120

70% Toshiba Chromebook
Source: Comp Reviews Archive.org version
Toshiba's first Chromebook goes for a larger size for those that want a bigger screen and larger keyboard. This helps the system with a better battery for longer running times and the screen actually has some nice color and viewing angles for a Chromebook but it still is a bit dim which could cause issues. The problem is that it doesn't have enough unique features to set it apart from others and ends up being just slightly better than average.

71% Toshiba CB30-A3120 Chromebook Review

Overall the Toshiba CB30-A3120 is a good machine for its price point. While its screen doesn’t have the pixel density or richness of a smaller notebook with the same resolution, it isn’t necessarily bad unless you’re comparing it to much higher definition screens, and you won’t find any of those at $300 or less. Finding another 13-inch laptop with an ease of use comparable to this one’s would be difficult, and if you’re looking for a budget ChromeOS experience (possibly for a student) that features a larger screen than the Acer C720, we would recommend giving the A3120 a look.

80% Toshiba enters the Chromebook race strong

The 13-inch MacBook Air Toshiba's Chromebook is most certainly not. This laptop isn't super stylish, nor is it the portable powerhouse you're looking for. But what Toshiba managed to accomplish in style and build for under $300 is undoubtedly impressive. If you're a media nut or one who often beats up their browser, this Chromebook (or probably any, for that matter) is not for you. In either case, I'd suggest going for a budget machine packing an Intel Core i5 chip (Haswell).

75% A 13-inch Chromebook for full-time use

With excellent battery life and a very useful 13-inch screen size, the Toshiba Chromebook offers a few things the Chrome OS competition does not. But beyond that, there's not much that stands out from other Chromebooks or is more likely to make you a believer in the platform.
