Reviews of the Toshiba Satellite E105-S1602
-
CNET Review
The Good: Sturdy construction and pleasing overall design; comfortable keyboard and touch pad; backlit keys; lengthy battery life without bulky battery; a twice-as-nice two-year warranty.
The Bad: Uses integrated graphics while other laptops at this price feature dedicated graphics; poor speakers, even for integrated standards.
The Bottom Line: Toshiba improves on last year's excellent Best Buy Blue Label laptop by slashing the price while serving up a nearly identical machine. Long battery life, a lengthy warranty, and a backlit keyboard highlight Toshiba's winning Satellite E105-S1602.
