The Toshiba Satellite A665D-S6051 ($799.98 list), available at Staples, is a member of the company's new A660 line of 16-inch multimedia laptops. This retail model is based on AMD's new Vision platform and features a quad-core AMD Phenom II P920 processor. As our benchmark tests indicate, most users will be better served with a dual-core chip with a faster clock speed. Still, its application performance is still respectable, though gaming isn't much of an option because the A665D-S6051's uses integrated graphics. Too bad, too, because games would sound great on the laptop's small but mighty Harman Kardon speakers, which offer some of the best sound we've ever heard from an integrated set of laptop speakers. If movies and music are your thing and PC gaming is not, the Satellite A665D-S6051 makes for a great entertainment laptop.

The Toshiba Satellite A665D-S5175 is a competent entry-level media center laptop that has a smart list of specs and a few clever features, but it doesn't hold up when measured against other laptops in the category. For better performance and a slightly better feature set—offering features like WiMax and WiDi—the Editors' Choice Sony VAIO VPC-EB33FM/BJ is a smarter choice, for less money.

Comment

Toshiba: Toshiba Corporation is a Japanese conglomerate or technology group. The company was established in 1939 and in 1978 Toshiba became the official company name. The company's products and services include power, industrial and social infrastructure systems, elevators and escalators, electronic components, semiconductors, hard drives, printers, batteries, lighting, logistics and information technology. Toshiba was one of the largest manufacturers of personal computers, consumer electronics, home appliances and medical equipment.


Only some 3D games with very low demands are playable with these cards.

ATI Radeon HD 4225: Onboard graphics card (in the RS880M chipset) that is able to decode HD videos (thanks to the UVD2). Technically a slower clocked HD 4250.

ATI Radeon HD 4200: Onboard graphics adapter (RS880M chipset) with UVD2 (PIP support) and DX 10.1 support (compared to the older HD 3200). Beware, possibly no 2D acelleration in Windows XP (as the HD3200).

AMD Phenom II X4:

P920: Slow clocked quad core CPU for mid size laptops (due to the 25 W TDP). Single threaded applications and games suffer from the low core speed.

P960: Slow clocked quad core CPU for mid size laptops (due to the 25 W TDP). Single threaded applications and games suffer from the low core speed.

16.00:

This range for display formats was and is a rarity. It is larger than the general standard of 15 inches, but not yet in the range of large workstations. One usually has higher screen resolutions available, but portability suffers from that.

» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.


2.6 kg:

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.

2.9 kg:


60%: Such a poor rating is rare. There are only a few notebooks that were rated even worse. The rating websites do not give a purchase recommendation here.
