Toshiba Satellite T115 Specification & Review

Toshiba Satellite T115 nice appearance at first sight, but the glossy plastic casing is a fingerprint magnet is horrible, so you'll want to keep the cloth handy if you're distracted by the stain. The 11.3 x 8.3 x 1.4-inch notebook is only a hair larger and heavier than the Acer Aspire 1410. Despite the plastic body, T115 does not feel or look cheap. He struck us as very solid, but slim. Plaid design extends across the touchpad. Under the seat bar length mouse design that flows into a row of status lights. Housing for 6-cell battery to increase the unit about half an inch, resulting in sloping gently. Although thin design, this notebook has a hot exhaust system is quite good.

Toshiba Satellite T115 Review

As expected on the 11.6-inch system, Notebook keyboard is close to full size with a button in middle relief. Shortened the right Shift key is placed-though really cram in a dedicated Page Up and Page Down buttons. The Enter key also smaller than usual, and the Alt and Ctrl on the right are very small that can hardly be used. On the left side Alt, Fn key and the Windows are all very thin, so this is not useful for those already familiar with keyboard shortcuts.

The large but unified the mouse buttons on this notebook is a drawback. Bar nice and long, but to get a good response. we must use the outer edge, this is a bit stiff and noisy.

Toshiba Satellite T115 Screen

You'll also find a USB port that can charge gadgets like cell phones even when the notebook is in sleep mode.
