Toshiba announces new Ivy Bridge all-in-one desktops and gaming laptop
If you are looking for a Toshiba laptop, here is one, the Toshiba Portege Z20t-B2112. The Toshiba Portege Z20t-B2112 laptop ships with Microsoft Windows 7 Professional. It runs on Intel Core M-5Y71 1.2 GHz processor with 8 GB RAM, Intel HD Graphics 5300 GPU, and 256 GB SSD storage. It has Bluetooth 4.0, microUSB, micro HDMI, microSD, WiDi, Wi-Fi 802.11ac, Ethernet port, and two USB 3.0 ports.
It has an IPS LCD display with 1920 x 1080 pixels screen resolution measuring 0.83 x 12.2 x 8.5 inches and weighs 3.3 pounds. It has a front-facing camera with 2 megapixels and a rear-facing camera with 5 megapixels with autofocus and digital zoom support. Standard battery rundown time is around 14 hours 8 minutes. It is offered with 3-year standard limited warranty.
For the pros, it has a flexible tablet feature with docking keyboard, thin and light design, and active digitizer and pen with stowable stylus. The second battery in the keyboard extends the battery life. For the cons, it runs on a slower Intel Core M processor which can’t beat the performance of Intel Core i5 CPUs. The preinstalled Windows 7 is kind of outdated for touch and tablet use.
In general, the Toshiba Portege Z20t-B2112 laptop is a great detachable-hybrid tablet and ultrabook. But with its Intel Core M processor and an older Windows 7 operating system, it doesn’t offer that much productivity. Suggested retail price is around $1,699.99.
