Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite C55-A5246NR

60% Toshiba Satellite C55-A5246NR 15.6-inch Laptop Review
Source: Comp Reviews English Archive.org version
While many of the companies are moving their budget systems to less powerful but more energy efficient platforms, Toshiba has elected to keep with traditional laptop features in the Satellite C55-A5246. This means the system is larger but it offers higher performance and an optical drive that many are removing.

15.60":

15-inch display variants are the standard and are used for more than half of all laptops.

The reason for the popularity of mid-sized displays is that this size is reasonably easy on the eyes, often allows high resolutions and thus offers rich details on the screen, yet does not consume too much power and the devices can still be reasonably compact - simply the standard compromise.
