Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite S50T-B-10H

60% Toshiba SATELLITE S50T-B-10H review
Source: Expert Reviews Archive.org version
The Toshiba Satellite S50T-B-10H is a well-specified and attractive laptop. Its processor and graphics performance mean it should be a bargain at this price, but build quality issues and a poor screen ultimately make this is a so-so laptop. The Acer Aspire V3-772G is a better alternative, as it combines an impressively powerful Nvidia GeForce GTX 750M graphics processor with a more powerful Intel Core i7-4702MQ processor. It’s more expensive than the Toshiba Satellite S50T-B-10H, but it’s one of our favourite general-purpose laptops.

60% Toshiba Satellite P50t-B 15.6in
Source: Good Gear Guide Archive.org version
Don't let the good looks fool you. This Toshiba Satellite P50t-B has a poor screen and just isn't great value considering the $1500 price point at which it's offered. For the asking price, it could use a Full HD panel, as well as better storage. It's got a good keyboard, though, and we like that it's a slim and relatively lightweight unit, despite its 15.6in form factor. But we can't get over the screen.

AMD Radeon R7 M260: Mid-range graphics card based on the GCN architecture.

Modern games should be playable with these graphics cards at low settings and resolutions. Casual gamers may be happy with these cards.

Intel Core i7: The Intel Core i7 for laptops is based on the LG1156 Core i5/i7 CPU for desktops. The base clock speed of the CPUs is relatively low, but because of a huge Turbo mode, the cores can dynamically overclock to up to 3.2 GHz (920XM). Therefore, the CPU can be as fast as high clocked dual-core CPUs (using single threaded applications) but still offer the advantage of 4 cores. Because of the large TDP of 45 W / 55 W, the CPU is only intended for large laptops.  

4500U:

Haswell-based ULV dual-core processor clocked at 1.8 GHz with Turbo Boost support up to 3.0 GHz. Offers an integrated HD Graphics 4400 and a dual-channel DDR3 memory controller.

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.

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.

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.
