Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 P50W-C-102
Flexible piece of gold. The new Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 is one of the few convertibles with a large 15.6-inch display. Thanks to the special hinges, you can use different operating modes, but do they make any sense for such a big device?

I'm impressed by the Toshiba Satellite Radius 15. Although it's a fair amount more expensive than its convertible rivals, it justifies the price with its impressive screen, great battery life and stylish chassis. You do pay more for the laptop's convertible nature and touchscreen, and if you just need a laptop you're much better off buying a general-purpose model, which at this price will have significantly more power. If you'd like to take advantage of Windows 10's touchscreen capabilities and like to watch films on your laptop or use it in the kitchen, though, it's a good choice.

In short, the Toshiba Satellite Radius isn’t a bad machine at all. The only weak spot is the touchpad, but that can be fixed with judicious use of the touchscreen, disabling gesture controls or plugging in an external mouse. In performance, it matches up with similarly priced alternatives, and it certainly looks the part. It feels a touch too big to be truly useful as a hybrid, though: I can’t see people using a 15in laptop in tablet mode very often.

Model: The Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 is a convertible notebook, which can be used in various operating modes. As the model name indicates, it has a 15.6 inch touchscreen, which features a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixels and supports 10-point multi touch input. An Intel Core i5-5200U with 8 GB of RAM is used to power this device. A conventional hard drive provides a storage capacity of 1 TB. Along the sides of this notebook, there are two USB 3.0 ports and a USB 2.0 port for connecting peripherals. There is no dedicated graphics card on this model as it is not meant for gaming. Hence, this device utilizes the Intel HD Graphics 5500 integrated in the processor for graphics processing.
The total weight of this convertible device is 2.24 kg. With a thickness of 20.1 mm it is fairly sleek. The notebook's satin gold aluminum surface gives it a premium look and a sturdy build. The full sized keyboard is backlit and the touchpad supports multi touch input. This Toshiba convertible notebook runs on Windows 8.1 64-bit, which suits touchscreen input. Finally, this Toshiba Satellite Radius 15 is a well-built device with all the rudimentary characteristic that a notebook and a tablet should have.

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.

72.33%: 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.
