Review of REFURBISHED-Toshiba Satellite PSAT6U-005002 A505-S6005 Notebook PC

Customer Ratings:

I got this computer after my 3rd Gateway died. My Dad recommended it to me after he bought one. I researched it and asked a couple of Toshiba owners that I know and took the plunge.

I love how fast it is. Multitasking is a breeze because of the i3 Dual Core processor and I love the look (although the fingerprints show up if you look at it too hard lol). I love the large hard drive and the speakers are the best laptop speakers that I've ever heard. It is also one of the quietest computers I've ever had.

I wish that the keyboard was a little quieter (it sort of clacks when you type) and I wish that the finish on the keyboard was different. I do love the offset numbers keypad, makes life a little easier.

This computer also has HDMI with CEC and I have yet figured out how to use it but it makes me feel better knowing that it's there lol. I would like to try Netflix or something on it in the future.

The webcam and mic are a little shabby but I don't plan on using it much so no big deal. The multitouch pad is boarderless which is great and has the finger zoom feature. I like being able to instantly zoom when I need to.

Overall, I love this computer. It has great specs for the price and is even a great starter computer. Having Windows 7 makes it a little more user friendly (I was powered up and surfing the net within ten minutes). I have recommended it to anyone who will listen!

I really like this computer even though I am new to Windows 7. I love the sound system so much better than my Sony Vaio. I like the screen size but its a little heavy due to the battery. Overall I think I will be very satisfied with this model. Consumer reports gave it a good rating for this screen size and overall Toshiba has the lowest repair rate also according to consumer reports. The missing star in my rating is just because its heavier than I am used to.

I had one difficulty and that was my old wireless router wasn't allowing this computer onto the network. It was found, but it couldn't connect. I recommend you call the manufacturer of the router because I had to download a newer driver so it could work. It cost me $98 but Toshiba couldn't have solved this problem for me.

This seller was a good seller and I recommend them. I received the computer faster than I had expected. And it was in its original factory sealed box, well packed in another box.

Have had this laptop for going on 9 months now. Bought it for $600 on a Best Buy holiday deal. Awesome product for the money even at $789.

This is my 6th laptop since 2001 and it's my favorite so far. I'm not a big fan of long posts so here it is:

PROS

Very long battery life

Excellent HD screen quality

The Harmon Kardon speakers are loud and crisp. Best sound I've heard from a mid-range laptop

Number pad on a laptop keyboard & overall good use of space for the keyboard.

Cool looking backlit LEDs that are flush some might find weird but I love it.

Didn't come with a bunch of crappy manufacturer software.

CONS

Big battery life = big battery. The battery actually puts the laptop on a slant, which again I like, but some may not. The only time I've found it annoying is when I use a slanted lap desk with it (double slant).

The touchpad/mousepad is to the left of the laptop. It's centered over the keyboard because of the number pad to the right. It took some time to get used to and I used to always touch it accidentally when typing causing some typos. After awhile I bought a wireless mouse anyway and turned the touchpad off.

My husband and I traded our terrible Asus i3 320gb laptop for this one. It's an all around great computer. We go to youtube, facebook, hotmail, our universities website to do schoolwork, we've installed the Microsoft Office Suite, and Adobe and it's still faster then our Dell and Asus. Highly recommend this laptop.

The S6005 has many good featureslong battery run time, hdmi port, sata port, legible keys. Good performance. The bad side is the display: 1366 x 768. You run out of vertical space really fast at that resolution. Think I'm a wimp? You try it, tough guy. Also, it's impossible to position the display such that the screen has consistent brightness top to bottom, unless you're 5 to 6 feet away. Meaning when you use it, it will be dark on he top and light on the bottom. That display has an extreme vertical angular brightness dependency. I checked this with Powerpoint with a constant color background in slide show mode, which covers the entire screen. For white, yellow and red, the screen is perfectno vertical brightness difference. With dark blue, it's a joke. Midnight blue on top, with washed-out hazy sky blue on the bottom. Sucks if you're trying to show something to someone that involves blue and the hue matters. Like a movie maybe. Or a chart. Or a picture. With lighter blue, green, orange, and purple, the defect is there, although not as pronounced as with dark blue. My friend's 2005-era 15.6" Toshiba laptop doesn't show this defect, the resolution seems better, and the screen just looks a whole lot better. Why did Toshiba cheap-out the display? Not to save money or anything, I'm sure. Too bad.

As made apparent by the multiple other reviews, this laptop model has inherent issues with the wi-fi card. Toshiba is aware of the problem and continues to ship these laptops without fixing the card. The wi-fi connection will drop continuously. Like another reviewer stated, I also was promised a callback from elevated support. A call I never received. The fact that they are shipping these laptops with foreknowledge of the issue indicates questionable ethical practices by Toshiba. I am sending mine back; I'll find a more reliable and trusted manufacturer to buy a laptop from.

UPDATE: This is a known issue with the Intel Centrino N-2230 Wireless Adapter Toshiba uses and Windows 8. My hunch is they initially built this notebook to run on Windows 7. There are numerous brands and models all experiencing the identical issue. There appears to be a fix. I have been running flawlessly since instituting the fix. It involves rolling back the driver to a previous version. You can find instructions on Intel's forum here:

https://communities.intel.com/thread/32899?start=15&tstart=0

Look for a post posted by the guy with the username "bjbakker"

I am updating my rating to 4 stars. The computer is elegant and super fast. I would give it 5 stars, but I'm not happy with Toshiba's handling of the situation. I should not have to do all this detective work to get to the bottom of the problem, but I'm happy now.

Updated 2 August

ONe of my favorite poets had a clubbed foot, George Gordon, Lord Byron; yet he was able to express his revolutionary ideas, become one of the essential cultural figures of his time, all time. As such this computer needs an alternative solution to WiFi networking. If you Google the installed Intel card, you can read in copious detail the unsolved issues with the card, especially in a complex environment of a home with WiFi phones, printers,PCs, I-Pods, game boxes, Smart TVs. My quick fix of a USB attached WiFi dongle gave me back all the fine qualities of this machine. Now, when I actually find an alternative network + Blu tooth card, I will swap out the one I have disabled. Perhaps Intel will actually respond to the complexity of multiple devices all using the same frequencies the N resides. Live in an apartment complex with a half dozen WiFi networks easily found with a modern pc and manufactures will simply need to do better. Until then, I leave the Intel card to do blu tooth (I haven't gotten my own head phones, mice, keyboards found and paired as yet).

The machine OTHERWISE meets / exceeds all my expectations. Byron and Toshiba Qosmio X75-A7298, flawed, but fabulous.

Original review and additions:

After going through 3 ASUS G750JXs at a local large electronics store all for the same defect of spontaneous shutdown (Critical errors in the Event Log) I decided to shop on-line finding more problem than it was worth to go locally for such a powerful pc.

The Toshiba X75-A7298 arrived yesterday morning and from the beginning it had its problems or as younger people say "issues." Because the WiFi connection would intermittently kick down to "no internet connection limited," I unplugged the cable modem and wifi router, reengaged and rebooted the Qosimo X75-7298 hereafter X75. As the 51 Microsoft Windows 8 updates contained a third install failures; and the Norton 360 Premier had the same partial success in live updates, I decided the easiest course would be a system restore back to the beginning. I learned well this trick from my ASUS experiences.

I also PLUGGED an Ethernet cable in before I ran the updates and software installs. Amazing! No failures or errors (I write this a short distance from my Ethernet / WiFi router. I'm certainly not taking unnecessary risks). Yet whether I would be downloading files, while watching MLB.TV or Amazon Prime I ran into the same problem.

After contacting Toshiba Saturday and not receiving the call back from the second level tech they promised me in Manila, a second call with a reference # confirmed hardware failure.

I like the responsiveness of this computer. It leaves barely a trace of finger prints unlike the ASUS 'gamer' and is lighter and has a Blu Ray disk, SSD and SATA hard drives, and great sound. I just want one that comes out of the box without, with out problems. I will update when I receive my replacement which Amazon informs me is on the way.

One final oddity (my subjectivity showing)is the A/C connector is the old RCA 4 prong male / female variety I know from my old vacuum-tube radio days. It seems very easy to fall out when using this laptop on my lap. Buyer beware!

July 31 Update:

As it turned out the second delivery after all of the Toshiba and Intel updates still has the same issues with error codes 1001 and 1014,defective Intel WiFi card /driver (And of course the Device Manager informed me the card was working and I had the best driver already installed). Would the 3rd try be any different?

No

Not only did this laptop experience the same problems as in the 2 previous (and within the first 5 minutes of video streaming), the 3rd was identical except this copy had error codes 1001 and 1014 in the Event Log not the date I received the new laptop (31 July), but 16 June 2013, a date I believe was prior to retail availability.

Also of note: the plastic coating atop the touch pad was missing. So whether this laptop had been opened by Amazon or Toshiba, it was not "new" on the one hand and had experienced the same network errors a month and a half prior to landing in my lap.

Thus from my initial order of July 19, I've been at this for a dozen days. Add the ASUS G750JX experiences of earlier and the month has been filled with 6 disappointments with Intel's 4th generation of laptop I7s. Should I wait 3 to 6 months and try Wintel again, Apple up, or find a nice large screen Android tablet?

Honest reviews on Toshiba Qosmio X75-A7298 17.3-Inch Laptop (Black Widow Styling in

I quite like this computer, and able to compare it to the last years version of this, the Qosmio x875-Q7390. This computer is lighter, seems more power efficient with the Haswell processor. I continue to like the 17" Qosmio for the following big great display, blu-ray, good sound. At this size I use both laptops by setting them on the bed or on my lap. They do not leave the house that much, which would be troublesome with a laptop this size.

I like bigger because in my mind it is a better experience, rather than to be squinting into a 13" screen. I would rather hassle with carrying a bigger unit around to get the better experience when using it. I love the bright screen, the numerous ports, big speakers. Each person needs to decide portabilty versus experience. I am the type of person who would love to trade my Samsung S3 for the Galazy Note 3, so I like a bigger screen. Both laptops need to be plugged into the wall as battery life is not that great. However I must say that the A7298 has much better battery life. It really appears that the Haswell chip is better. Both computers are fast to start and also shut down quickly. The 7298 is cooler and vents the heat to the side.

Both have Windows 8, which I barely notice because I use the desktop app, which to me looks exactly like Windows 7. This may be a Toshiba app which is included. To me the specs on both are excellent for the price. I looked at other manufacturers for screen size/resolution, blu-ray, graphics card, processor, memory. I continue to be impressed by Toshiba in terms of the clarity of their website and all the features packed into the unit. It appeared very good compared to Dell, HP, ASUS, etc. When I buy a computer I intend to use it for at least 4 years, so do not mind paying a little more. I do not think both computers will be obsolete anytime soon. This computer and its predecessor are great for web surfing, music, movies. I connect both to my TV via HDMI output so I watch YouTube on my TV which is great.

The only issue is I would be careful with Toshiba quality. I have had to return a Q7290 (the predecessor to the Q7390) and my first Q7390 for being completely defective. The Q7290 would not start, and the first Q7390 had a defective graphics card diagnosed by Toshiba support. I also had another Qosmio custom machine, with similar construction specs, have to be returned about 4 months ago for a defective wifi card. The Wifi would keep losing connection with the router. Toshiba support could not fix this. It appears as if a number of others have also had the same problem. I am not a tech person so I do not know where this problem arises, but it appears that resetting the network adapter fixes this temporarily.

My current Q7390 also has this issue sporadically this is fixed by resetting the network adapter, something that takes about 10s. But it is still a hassle, and Toshiba support did not really help me. So basically half the computers I have bought from Toshiba have had some serious problems.

The good news is that at least the A7298 has not had this issue. The bottom line is that this computer has a nice 1080p screen, blu-ray, fast processor and other specs, nice sound, and is light. It is really a wonderful machine that has improved from the 2012 computer line from Toshiba. Incidentally one thing which I really enjoy about both my computers is the fact that the track pad also is a button. This allows me to web surf many times with just one hand. This little thing really makes a difference I especially notice this when I am using a laptop that does not have this. For example if you move to a hyperlink you have to then move your hand to another button; but with this Qosmio pad you can just push it down once the arrow is over the link. This was extremely important to me.

I recommend buying this machine directly from Amazon, and to use it thoroughly in the first month to make sure that there are no problems. I would pay more from AMZN to have the peace of mind that I can return the unit without a hassle if there are problems. I have had only good experience in returning costly electronic items to AMZN, the most customer-friendly retailer I have ever worked with.

Especially make sure that the Wifi works properly. Overall I am happy to own this machine and the Q7390.

I'm replacing my Toshiba Qosmio X775-3DV80, I'm giving it to my son for college. I received the computer today and came home early to set it up.We had a large thunderstorm today, so when I was having connection problems blamed it on Comcast having issues due to the storm. After some time my youngest son was watching Dr. Who on Netflix with no problem, The TV feeds off the same router. Now begins the troubleshooting, called Toshiba and we reset, re installed both router and computer. They determined it must be a defective wi-fi card. So, I'm going to return it to Amazon. I will say the computer itself is extremely fast and I may have them send one more out. Yes I read the other review about this same issue, but on the last model wi-fi worked great so I gave it a try.

Best MSI GT683DXR-423US 15.6-Inch Gaming Laptop - Black Deals

Customer Ratings:

I received this laptop early today. It came packed to the point that it was a chore to take everything out, which was great since my product had no chance to mess up while in transit. Although I have only received this laptop today, I can already see that I love it.

Pros:

-The sound is truly wonderful. I played youtube songs on my laptop, and no matter how high, or how low I put it, it sounded crisp and clear. The DYNAUDIO works excellent. It makes you feel like you are really in a game, or if watching a movie, just sounds amazing.

-Keyboard. The keyboard is excellent. The keys are nicely spaced apart, making it simple to type. It also comes with a keypad, which is excellent since there are many laptops of this size that don't have one.

-The turbo fan works wonders. I played a game for around an hour, and unlike my old laptop that would get really hot after 20 minutes of playing, this laptop stayed cool throughout the entire hour. Although some people say the fan is loud, I could barely hear it while playing my game, and with headphones on, you won't even know it's on.

-The Cinema Pro is amazing. It makes the colors sharper, more crisp. It really makes the movies, games, pages that you are looking at pop out. It is just absolutely beautiful.

-The software on this game is great, as is the video card. I played L4D2, with all my settings maxed out. The game play was smooth, with not one hitch nor lag nor frame freeze. I loaded almost instantly into each new level, when it would take me a few minutes with my old laptop. The images are much nicer, the resolution amazing.

-The keys are marked with arrows. You can tell it's a gaming laptop by how the red arrows point forward, backward, left, and right. It makes it much easier to find and use the buttons for moving about in the game.

I haven't been able to thoroughly go and look through the entire laptop, so I will update this review once I do.

Cons:

-No instruction manual. Although many of you think no big deal, you will be surprised how difficult it is to navigate this laptop. Although the laptop does come with some papers explaining what the buttons are, they don't really go into detail on everything. So you have to figure it out as you go. And even if you have time to just press every button and see what it does, the same thing can't be said for everyone else. I prefer to start up windows, do the new software updates, and go.

-The mouse pad is iffy. Mine is very touchy. If I touch it lightly, it will sometimes jump around the screen. Other times if I don't press hard enough it won't move. I solved this problem by using my wireless mouse. You can get a $15 wireless mouse and your problem will be solved. It doesn't bother me in the least.

-I am personally having trouble with the text on my laptop. It is very small, and I've looked everywhere and I can't figure out how to change it. The laptop is hard if you are a beginner just for the fact that it has so many things going on in such a small packaged. So if you are really interested in this laptop, I would read up on laptops, and on MSi's just so you have a chance.

Other then these small issues, I absolutely love this laptop. I happily forked over 1500 bucks for this baby. It does everything I was looking for, plus more. The features on this laptop exceeded my every expectation, as it will yours. If you are looking for a laptop with many features that really work, and amazing graphics at a decent price, this is the one for you.

I needed a laptop on which to do video editing. My old machine could not handle the work at all. This machine has all the power needed, and a large enough screen to see what I'm doing. There is so much RAM that my machine generally runs with 6 GB used at all times, but with only 20% of CPU usage. Awesome.

Other reviews said the keyboard was not good. Wrong. The keyboard is very nice, solid and quite.

There are two things that I don't like:

1) The keyboard is not backlit. I would greatly prefer a backlit keyboard.

2) There is no light indicating if the caps light is on.

3) There is no light indicating when the power cord is plugged in.

In summary, it could be better in some small features, but it's got it where it counts.

I needed something more portable as I work 3rd shift security, so thought it would be good to have a laptop with me. This is actually the best laptop I have ever owned. It plays every game that I throw at it with no problems. Plenty of ram, graphics ect ect. When I go home, I hook it up in my room to my 37" Flat tv and watch netflix or crackle movies via HDMI connector. The only thing that got me was it was a little expensive (for me) I know that's not the fault of the seller. I just wish Game laptops were a bit cheaper. I was willing to pay the extra cash so that I could have a decent video card though :) No complaints, Meets and Exceeds Expectations. Thanks MSI.. Will be using you again for all of my laptop needs.

Honest reviews on MSI GT683DXR-423US 15.6-Inch Gaming Laptop - Black

This laptop absolutely sucks. Within 2 weeks of buying it / using it, it gave up and threw in the towel.

I fire it up and play for about 5 minutes and get some fuzzy lines and then the display cuts out. Backlight is still on, just a black screen. So I rebootno screen at post. Then I think that maybe I didnt seat the mxm cards correctly/or needed to clean the contacts. Did that and fired it up while it was apart, got post. Turned it off, put it back together, no post. Took it apart again, searched google. I then noticed the the caps light was on, and the num and scroll were flashing. Followed a random response on google and reseated my ram. Post again, and again. Anyway, I'll be playing skyrim and my fans will kick up and fuzzy lines will come up lightly at first then really intense then stop completely. Sometimes when the fans are barely spinning.

I just received my laptop. I looks just as it does in the picture. It is as beautifully petite and light weight as described. I am running windows 8 on this pc right now and though it takes a little getting used to, I love it. I just had a full charge and I'm waiting to see how long it lasts -I wonder if it will reach that 6 hour average.

A couple of things that I had to remind myself about...

1. windows 8 and google chrome are not really good together in my opinion. Windows promotes all the Microsoft products first of course. Internet explorer actually functions better with this interface.

2. this device doesn't have the optical drive therefore my old Microsoft office 7 cd cannot be installed yet, I'm looking for other solutions

3. the camera is not that great in dim lighting, I will explore how well it works outside tomorrow

4. the keyboard is great its is small enough for my small hands and allows me to type perfectly on here.

SO far soo good! I am enjoying this new product! It is a great buy for someone like me who was on a tight budget and needed an extra portable laptop to take to class daily. ( I Just sold my Toshiba satellite Ls500, it weighed 6 pounds).

Overall, I like the size of the computer, and when it actually works I like it.

Now for the bad parts. I really dislike Windows 8. I feel as though it is made for a touch screen computer only and is very clunky and non intuitive. I also have had a few other numerous problems with this computer. One being the wireless capability. My phone, my wife's phone, and my old computer all connect to the wireless network with no problem. This computer goes in and out all the time, and when you are working "via the cloud" on things for work losing a connection every few minutes can be maddening. Also, perhaps most frustrating is that when the computer goes to sleep, or hibernates, or you close the lid, it will not restart to where I left off. I am simply left with a blank screen. I have called tech support on this issue numerous times and am given a ticket number. Every time I call, they adjust the power settings and tell me to call back if it recurs. I have called back again and again and have literally had this issue since I got the computer.

I was eventually referred to their "premium software support" team and was told that it might be a problem with their preinstalled software, and they could fix it but I would be charged. My argument was that if I was shipped a product that did not work, they should be responsible for fixing it. They did not see it that way.

I ended up contacting Amazon to complain about Lenovo's terrible customer support and my experience and they immediately offered to refund my money and take the computer as a return with no questions asked.

The battery life is not what I expected, It requieres to be charged every 3 hours. It doesn't worth what I have paid. Elena

Honest reviews on Lenovo U310 13.3-Inch Ultrabook

I was looking for an economical well featured lightweight laptop and onstensibly, this unit fills the bill.

It's quirky sometimes and locks up or reflects send/receive errors on Outlook but frankly, it's tough to know whether to ascribe those frustating deficiencies to the machine itself or the demons that befall a non-touchscreen version of the much maligned Windows 8.

I've added "Start8" to make it feel more like Windows7, but clearly, this is a WIN8 machine with a minor disguise.

Otherwise, it's fine -battery life is acceptable, weight is a bit heavy compared to other ultrabooks, but at the low end of the pricepoint, it's tolerable for travel.

I suppose reasonable minds would ascribe my challenges to the user(me)or Windows 8 . . not the machine itselfbut at this point, it's not what I would prefer . . but have to accept.

It came with Windows 8, which was a big negative. I bought a RetroUI program which restores most of the start button, so with that add-on, Windows 8 is much better.

The machine itself seems to be flawless. It's powerful, with 8GB of memory, 64 bit 4-core AMD processor(s). The keyboard is full-size, which is good, but I don't care much for the arrangement of the keys. The arrow keys are way too small, and the delete key, along with the top row of F keys are much too small for my taste. I use them often, and I don't like having to hunt for them, because it slows me down.

There is a huge amount of room on the bottom of the laptop, so it's puzzling to me why they couldn't have made ALL of the keys a normal size.

I've also noticed that there is no light to indicate whether the caps lock is on or off. That was another completely unnecessary omission, which is a little annoying, but not major.

If I weren't a power user, probably I wouldn't even notice these issues, but I use it for publishing work, so a normal-size keyboard and keys with all associated functions that you would normally find on a PC is important to me.

All in all, a good machine; not "perfect" (which is subjective), but good.

Review of HP EliteBook 8740w XT909UT Core i7 i7-640M 2.8GHz 17" Display 4GB

Customer Ratings:

Great laptop for programming. WUXGA resolution (1920x1200) is perfect for writing and viewing full screen apps. Expresscard slot is great as I've put in a serial card (USB to serial converters don't always work correctly).

Nice color, fast, sturdy, would recommend.

The add says that this is a Gigabyte P27K with a 15.6-inch display. But there is no 15.6-Inch version of the Gigabyte P27K, only a 17.3-inch display.

Also in the description of the product it says that the display size is 17.3-inch.

Hope you can correct the title or name of the product as it is misleading or incorrect, and will result in confusion.
