Customer Reviews

Good laptop on a budget, however...
This laptop has been designed for someone seeking a well priced laptop and is ideal in replacing a desktop PC due to its large screen. Although previously, i have never thought much of a Celeron processor, this 1.8Ghz Celeron T3000 processor begs to be different. My primary laptop contains a Core 2 Duo processor but i must admit, there is hardly a difference the standard user would see between the two. This processor is highly capable of allowing you to work at your optimum level without the laptop heating up too much and without lag. You can work on loads of stuff simultaneously without observing any intrusion or noise during processing as Toshiba L350-21Q is very smooth and quite during operation.

The laptop comes with Bluetooth and WiFi features built in so you can get connected effortlessly to the internet and transfer data from your mobile phones and other bluetooth devices directly on to the laptop. Bluetooth is not a feature usually seen on the lower end laptops and also makes this laptop a very good purchase even for office use as bluetooth maybe used to sync files to a PDA.

However, this laptop also has its disadvantages. The 3.2kg weight of this laptop is generally slightly higher than other 17" laptops and therefore isnt the most portable of laptops. The graphics card is also a basic Intel GMA 4500M, which also limits what this laptop may be capable of.

Overall, i would say this laptop is ideal for the standard everyday home user. However, do consider the poor graphics card as you would see this when using the laptop for multimedia i.e playing games and DVD's.

Very good laptop for the price from a reliable manufacturer.
I bought this laptop to replace my desktop computer, but never got a chance to use it.
My daughter homed in on it straight away, and has decided that she will use it to replace her desktop instead.
It is quite a bulky laptop, which didn't surprise me, as my last laptop was also a Toshiba Satellite and that was quite a bit bigger than others around at the time.
It is very smart, though, and the finish is impeccable. One reason I bought it was to use it to present to potential clients, and the quality of the finish and styling was a big factor in my choice.
It starts up very quickly, running Windows Vista, and so far I have had no problems with crashing or other disruptions.
It will happily run my larger applications (Photoshop and Illustrator) and is quite capable of running 4OD and BBC iPlayer without the stopping and starting I have seen on slower machines.
It is average for sound reproduction - it is a laptop after all - and has a nice bright screen.
On balance I think it is a well thought out computer with a well set up system and with 2Gb of RAM and a 160Gb hard drive it will be fine for most users. If you are a heavy graphics, film or game user then you might need to look elsewhere for the best quality, but otherwise I would recommend it.
All I have to do now is buy another one for me - as I don't see my daughter handing this one back anytime soon!

Disapointed
I purchased my Toshiba new and it has been nothing but a nightmare. In the 7 months I have had it it has been in for repairs 4 times, me being without my computer for a total of 7 weeks. I have writen letters to Toshiba Europe in a attempt to solve, but all has been a great disapointment.I can only say that this is the first and last time I buy Toshiba, as thier customer care is extremly poor.
