Reviews for the Toshiba Portege Z20t-B-107

Toshiba Portégé Z20T-B-107
Source: It Pro English Archive.org version
The Toshiba Portege Z20T-B-107 comes close to getting right as a hybrid that’s both a good tablet and a good laptop. But as tablet it’s let down by its relatively heavy weight, heat issues and its inevitable reliance on Windows which has both benefits and disadvantages, such as extensive peripheral compatibility but a continuing paucity of touchscreen apps.

12.50":

This range of display format is largely the upper limit for tablets and the lower limit for subnotebooks.

The advantage of subnotebooks is that the entire laptop can be small in size and therefore easily portable. The tiny display has the added advantage of requiring little power, which further improves battery life and thus mobility. The disadvantage is that reading texts is exhausting for the eyes. High resolutions, which one is used to from a standard laptop, are almost not usable.

The same applies to tablets in this size range.
