Reviews for the Toshiba Satellite S875-S7356

60% Toshiba Satellite S875 Review
Source: Notebookreview.com Archive.org version
The Toshiba Satellite S875 is a classic 17-inch notebook which is sure to make a decent family PC. Unfortunately, a "traditional" laptop may struggle to make the most of the new Windows 8 operating system. We won't go quite as far as to declare that every Windows 8 PC needs to have a touchscreen -- there is more than one way to skin an OS -- but we will say that this notebook fails to deliver the best Windows 8 experience.

With this weight, a laptop is rather heavier than average. Devices in this range shine more with screen size and performance than with mobility.
