new laptop

dawndew

I am thinking of buying a new laptop, the one I like is a Toshiba satellite, but when I have looked at the reviews they say it's very slow? Any advice would be great ta, x

What is the main use of the machine?
What budget?
Which particular toshiba you are talking about?

With any computer you are buying the processors, memory, HD, SSD, graphics card etc to meet your needs. These components are held inside a plastic case.

The name printed on the case is largely irrelevant.

Not really.
Some company with design which are easier to de-assemble for repair.
Some do better on keeping laptop cold.
Some use better screen.
Some have less bloatware.

Hi dawndew

I am new to this forum and I saw your message and I hope this helps you.

I have a Toshiba Satellite C660 Laptop and it is very good. It Isn't slow to me and I have had it for nearly 3 years. I have recently updated it to Windows 10.

I looked but the Toshiba Satellite C660 Laptop I had has been discontinued now.

I have seen some Toshiba Satellite and other Laptops on the Currys PC World website.

I hope this is useful to you
Best wishes

David.

Hi Dawndew

Thanks very much for your reply.

I have just seen another Toshiba Satellite Laptop on the Argos website in their 5 Day Event. It is a Toshiba Satellite C50 Laptop not an L50, but I thought you might want to have a look at it to see it's what you may want.

It is reduced by £30 to £249.99 from £279.99

Best Wishes
