Toshiba Satellite X200-191

I bought this laptop today as I was looking for a top-range laptop. . So far he pleases me Note: This review is gradually built up. Featureset If you specified viewing , you can see that the specifications are great. , there is a downside, the hard drives are pretty slow (4200rpm), but that is not on. to performance there is a huge 17 "wide screen, there may be nothing to say, Aleen regrettable that the resolution just is not Full HD. But I will discuss later. This fact has an HD-DVD player and this is all the software installed in advance. offers 802.11b/g/n what a perspective on the future. It also has a card reader, but it is only for a few types of cards, which is unfortunate, there is still a lot of empty unused location. At 6 USB ports, this laptop is not that enough. An advantage is that there is an HDMI output, and a FireWire input (video version (a big one)). A value to this laptop The multifunctional touchpad and of course the wonderful harman / kardon speakers (6 pieces!). What is also very good is that it has a fingerprint reader, which by the way works very well after a bit of getting used to. Achievements Did this laptop even Neit can test it in games, but must have good performance deeze topic I will discuss in the coming days. Vista scores: Processor Intel (R) Core (TM) 2 Duo CPU T7700@2.40GHz 5.3 Memory (RAM) 2.00 GB 4.8 Graphics NVIDIA GeForce 8700M GT 5.9 Gaming graphics 1279 MB Total available graphics memory 5 5 Primary hard disk 76GB Free (93GB Total) 4.7 After running 3dMark I was a little disappointed. But 4392 3DMarks . This was all standard, after updating drivers had gone much better (do not find the link sorry, would later do the test, do not have much time). But after the update, I had 5762 3DMarks. I find then certainly an achievement for a laptop. Improvement: I have only just seen that I have that super high 3DMarks score obtained with an external HD thereon was installed, and I have therefore launched eSATA, that was a super fast HD thus making it logical to have such fine tuning score makes something out, but if you just do it as many applications plotting toshiba and performance set to maximum, you'll easily be against the 5000, but 700 will only be achieved with a fast external eSATA (with PCMCIA adapter HD Now I play FEAR lately I've noticed that it runs freely on highest settings, sometimes it can have a mini-lag if there really is a lot of smoke and such things. Picture quality No problems, the screen has a galnzend but not TOO shiny like HP, it is yet to see if there is black, very little reflection, While pursuing to see all the benefits of glossy screens pretty well be. Since it is a 17 "screen, it is also an energy consumer thought at first, but that's not such a big difference in the end. What actually is not bad, but it is regrettable that the screen is not Full HD. With a resolution of 1680x1050, it's still better than its competitors. Brightness and contrast than not spoken! Such quality screens I've honestly never seen gezegt, it is simply amazing! During the 3DMark test, I was surprised by the quality of the colors, I've never even seen. Build quality and robustness It's a pretty nice solid laptop, there may be nothing at the moment to note ... On the side of the screen is a nice red marble drawing arranged that in real life so much better than a picture! The finish of this laptop is really up to the dots worked. Now I have this laptop 24 hours, I've found one flaw: there is a stikkertje error . Lol, really nothing to complain about, only on what I fear is that the adapter with 4 pins stuck, I saw that he thus firmly fixed, so he can not fall out accidentally, but I do not know if you do so with mekklijk should deal with it, what is certain is that the adapters (jusit that piece, yeah) that are sold separately and fairly cheap, probably they will still come in handy. But the pins are called in the laptop, but they say it can be solved by a new AC Adaptor. Fact Truly goes I do not care because I do have a comprehensive insurance policy taken UPDATES (and not by Toshiba!) what me extra offers advantages. A few parts of this laptop are actually quite binger stain sensitive, but it is intresting ante, that stains but remain some minutes and then they disappear mysteriously only the rear side has sometimes suffer from, if you're really dirty fingers, too The screen may suffer from finger smudges. The solution is microfiber cloth, just as rubbing and it's gone! Ergonomics Well, ergonomics, it does have a fairly ergonomic keyboard and since the laptop at a slight angle, ie saying is, I find him quite ergonomic, the moreover has a num-pad, so it is also convenient to type numbers. The keys are quite large, which is an advantage. It takes some getting used to since your arrows are still under the shift, which by the way are smaller, which makes no sense for a gaming notebook. Eventually, I can still only find nothing, so very good! Heat and noise Wow, heat is well drained and he is very quiet, I can barely hear him as I type louder than the fan, and the computer is 50m further state, silent case fan is louder, while already very quiet. So here I am very satisfied. When testing 3DMark I've heard it's a little louder goes on, but is still very quiet. I've barely heard, so you have to really pay attention then. After the BIOS update anyway, then run the fans at maxiumum until you restart the laptop, you can hear them, but I found it quite easy, it's certainly Neit louder than a regular PC with one case fan. What with also noticed that the DVD drive in normal mode is pretty loud, but when you turn on acoustic silent mode, you almost do not hear it. 'm Already one hour on my lap and it's working again not hot, I would like to have a little free heating, but apparently it did not let me. It's actually even a little cold because you feel the fans. then also something positive about noise (music). The speakers that are built, are exceptionally good,'ve never seen anywhere else, I think it even for ordinary speakers is quite an achievement to have such a quality not talked about laptop speakers then. The sound is very clear, the bass is beautiful. What struck me that changing the two speakers underneath himself to environment, if you have some moves with laptop fits always with sound (different speakers) for optimal quality. mobility and battery life First time using the battery. He went for 2 hrs, there was a TV tuner to it and it worked pretty well. After 1 hour and 52 minutes, he started beeping (every 30 seconds and it is quite loud). I find this quite easy, since those TV tuner is quite an energy consumer. I let him charge, immediately after 2hrs 40min after it was finished charging 2%, which is faster than what they said because they say that if the laptop is turned on it will take 12 hours to charge, I do not know how it is, but they probably made ​​a mistake in the specifications. This is particularly good, it takes as long to charge as it works as it takes to clean out the battery. It may also be because I have a non-standart AC adapter (90W instead of 120W) got there, according to the manufacturer it was an extra service at this. Okay, here is a little update about. It is normal that as fast charging, there is an error in the specifications of the shops and stuff. It is quite normal that recharges so quickly. Meanwhile the battery, I also tested. Since Battery-eater was not working properly I just FEAR gaming and more on maximum settings. It kept 1u12min full, I find that very good. However, there are still a few minor details about mobility: This laptop is about 3.5-4 kg which makes him still reasonably portable, he's big and thick, but that is be expected. gaming laptop This laptop also has a nice AC adapter in a format like a small brick finish, is actually quite funny, because those are exactly the same size. Only the weight varies, AC adapter is about 500-700 gr result so go better think about it if you want to take him somewhere that you need for an additional box should have and still have extra weight goes entrainment. price I got it purchased at 1950 euro, but this laptop I want to give it, it is definitely worth it. If you think about it, what you get, you certainly can not compare, it's a lot, but if you do not care, you can sit and simply ignoring the way if you buy it before the end of January at an authorized dealer of Toshiba , you get 5 free HD-DVDs, which are actually still a nice little extra's.
