PCPro take their first look at the lightweight Toshiba Portégé R600 laptop
Never ones to have too much of a good thing, we’ve taken yesterdays popular topic of Toshiba-related conversation, the Portégé R600 – and are expanding on it. This time by focussing on a really rather cracking review of the lightweight notebook by pcpro.co.uk – who ensure us that with this stylish notebook “the devil is in the detail”.
Focussing on those all-important little extras like the better protected, and more flexible, screen “certainly we gave it a good old flex and it stayed in shape”, and embedded 3G mobile broadband which “with an extended battery - and an astonishing weight of 779g, makes this a highly attractive laptop for mobile professionals”.
There are some more basic elements of the device that have been turning pcpro heads too, not least the keyboard, which “is a pleasure to use too. All the keys are large and easy to hit, with a responsive feel” – nice, and what of using this feather-light (almost) laptop outside? “There’s a transflective LED display, and by pressing a single button you can make it feasible to use outside on a sunny day.”
To read the whole account of this laptop, pop over to the source on pcpro – or just feast your eyes on this pretty image below.
