Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-B-112
Beautifully simple and familiar; the Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-B-112 is a capable package. The full black chassis is reminiscent of older laptop models but looks professional and discreet just as its "Pro" tag suggest. This is a business class laptop with full sized island-style keyboard to ensure typing those long emails and reports a little bit easier. There are two OS variants users can choose from; Windows 7 Professional 64-bit or Windows 8.1 Pro 64-bit.
Hardware on the laptop consists of an Intel Core i5-4210U processor clocked at 1.70 GHz, 4 GB DDR3L 1600 MHz RAM and an Intel HD Graphics 4400 GPU. The storage space is a 750GB hard drive, which will definitely be enough to store any work related software and content. On board is also a DVD super multi drive capable of reads and burns. Other features on the Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-B-112 are 2 USB 3.0 ports, 1 USB 2.0 port, a HD webcam, HDMI out port and a multi-format card reader.
Communication capability is very good with Bluetooth 4.0, Intel Dual Band Wireless-AC adapter and LAN connector. Even though the Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-B-112 is aimed at business class usage, audio quality is not compromised with stereo speakers powered by DTS sound technology. Battery life is awesome with a 4-cell Lithium-Ion pack capable of powering the laptop on long commutes.

Under-dressed. There are plenty of low-priced office laptops. Toshiba now refreshes its bleak mass of Satellite Pro models with a new and thinner casing. Is taking a look worthwhile or is just old wine in new skins?

Archive.org versionThis no-nonsense business system doesn’t excel in any one area. The keyboard and trackpad are good, build quality is reasonable and its performance is average. This machine is capable of handling basic work tasks, and its sturdy design means it’ll be at home in the office or on the road. Dell’s system is lighter, with better ergonomics and battery life, and isn’t much more expens.

Archive.org versionOverall, we're happy with the Toshiba Satellite Pro R50B. It offers good performance and sturdy build in a robust, plain chassis that doesn't stand out from the crowd. It does the basics well and while it may not set the pulse racing, it's good enough for any basic business and home uses. If you want something a little more exciting, the Dell Inspiron 15 5000 comes with an Intel Core i7 processor and a dedicated graphics card, yet costs a little less.

Archive.org versionThe Toshiba's good ergonomics, reasonable build quality and Core i5 processor make it a solid business notebook, but the R50 does little to stand out. The display is poor, battery life is average, and that Core i5 chip won't handle applications in the same way as the Dell's Core i7. That Dell is a better option if you've got more cash to spend, and the HP Envy 15 x360 is better-looking. Only buy the R50 if you need a mid-range machine and you're content without it turning heads.

Archive.org versionThis laptop isn’t designed to turn heads, and it won't – for all of its good build quality and reasonable dimensions, there’s no denying that it’s a dull-looking system. Toshiba’s latest Satellite Pro is designed as a do-it-all business machine, but it’s mediocre in most departments, from its middling power and battery life to its dull design and poor screen. Middle management rather than executive level.

Office worker. With its Satellite Pro R50-C-16V, Toshiba presents a quiet, 15.6-inch office device that hardly heats up. A Core i3 processor from the Skylake generation provides the necessary computing power. The Windows 10 Pro operating system boosts the laptop's price to almost 500 Euros (~$534).

Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-C-1E8
Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam
The Gigaset GS100 is a new entry-level smartphone, which still offers a rich set of features and a panorama display. It has a simple plastic case. There are advantages and disadvantages to this cheap construction though. The plastic case can look cheap compared to a glass panel or metal construction but it is somewhat more resistant to cracks, breaking, scratches and fingerprint smudges. Also, a user can take the back off, which reveals a removable battery. The GS100 weighs 174 g despite its mainly plastic construction, making it heavier than many similar devices. With its MTK 6739 quad-core processor, 1 GB of RAM and Android 8.1 Oreo in the Go Edition, the GS100 delivers enough performance for almost any application from Instagram to WhatsApp. The GS100 runs on Android Go, which is great for entry-level smartphones. The Go edition requires less processing power and makes do with the built-in RAM, yet still delivers a smooth user experience. For games, the GS100 is powerful enough to handle light gaming, but users will need a faster smartphone if they want to play more demanding games. Plenty of memory and unlimited connectivity are ensured by a dual SIM and a separate MicroSD slot, which can expand the 8 GB of internal memory by up to 128 GB. Snapshots and selfies are captured with 8 and 5 megapixels, respectively, and can then be viewed on the 5.5-inch 18:9 HD+ IPS display at a resolution of 1,440 x 720 pixels, which is excellent in this class. The dirt-repellent and scratch-proof 2.5D glass ensures a clear view, and with its slightly rounded corners, it transitions smoothly into the phone's body in Lemon Green, Cobalt Blue or Graphite Grey. The GS100 goes a step further in terms of features and technology. With its NSP audio processor, it targets users who place great value on an especially well-controlled sound with lots of volumes and a wider frequency range. The HD Voice feature suppresses background noise and interference during phone calls. The 3,000 mAh lithium polymer battery offers a decent performance with 550 hours of standby time or 80 hours of music listening (screen off). Thanks to the rapid charging function, with 1.5 A instead of 1 A, the GS180 is recharged 50 percent faster than standard phones. Being replaceable, the battery offers flexibility and extended durability. With the USB-on-the-Go (OTG) function, the user can connect all kinds of USB devices to the phone such as USB mice or keyboards. It also works the other way around and the phone can be used as a power bank. As a conclusion, the Gigaset GS100 is aimed specifically at price-sensitive customers who nevertheless still want a full-featured smartphone; whether used as a kid's first smartphone, the second phone on vacation, or as a device for everyday use.Hands-on article by Jagadisa Rajarathnam
The Toshiba Satellite Pro R50-C-1E8 is a quiet 15.6-inch office notebook that barely heats up. It features a Core i3 processor from the Skylake generation, which provides the right computing power. Toshiba delivered a basic, 15.6-inch office laptop that is aimed primarily at professional users with its Satellite Pro R50-C. Toshiba uses black plastic exclusively for the casing of its Satellite Pro. The base unit's upper side and lid's back are textured to imitate brushed aluminium. The black plastic is barely decorated with subtle straight lines, the keyboard and trackpad are both black, and only the lid’s Toshiba logo is decorated in metallic, shining plastic. At 2.3 kg, the R50 isn't the lightest laptop around but it's portable. The 6th generation Intel Celeron 3855U processor and the 4 GB of RAM installed has the computing power necessary to run a smooth office or Internet applications. The laptop barely heats up and always works quietly. Besides that, the 128 GB SSD would let the system respond faster and booting times would be shorter. Intel's HD Graphics 510 graphics unit takes care of video output. This laptop can render a few games smoothly. This applies to games that do not have high hardware requirements. Thus, the user will have to be satisfied with low resolutions and low-quality settings even in these games. The matte 15.6-inch screen in Toshiba's laptop has a native resolution of 1,366 x 768 pixels. Both brightness (216.7 cd/m²) and contrast (390:1) are average. Toshiba installs a viewing angle dependent TN panel into its Satellite. Thus, the screen is not legible from every position. However, it has a matte finish to take the edge of brightly lit office environments. The R50’s keyboard has a sensible layout, with large keys and a number pad, and the Scrabble-tile typing surface proved pleasing to use. The keys were consistent, with a light, rapid action aided by the solid base. The trackpad was fine with Toshiba steering clear of any gimmicks. The smooth surface turns out to be accurate. Toshiba is quite generous with USB ports. The laptop offers four Type-A ports (2x USB 2.0, 2x USB 3.0 Gen.1). Furthermore, two video-outs are installed. The interface positioning could be improved. The left-sided USB port is on the same level as the wrist rest. The stereo speakers are situated above the keyboard behind a perforated cover. They produce a thin, mostly bass-free sound. Using headphones or external speakers is recommended for a better sound experience. As a conclusion, designed with both casual and professional users in mind, the Satellite Pro R50-C allows for quiet work. A high-definition display and a full-size keyboard improve performance. Thanks to its combination of performance and reliability, the Satellite Pro R50-C is the ideal notebook for the basic office environment.Specifications

69.14%: This rating is poor. More than three quarters of the models are rated better. That is rather not a purchase recommendation. Even if verbal ratings in this area do not sound that bad ("sufficient" or "satisfactory"), they are usually euphemisms that disguise a classification as a below-average laptop.
