Great and resistant laptop!October 7, 2008 This is a graet laptop,great big screan,realy good sound on harman/kardon speakers,integrated graphic card ati radeon 3100 but it's very good for games (PES 2008)...for integrated card. And the main thing why i am doing this review is becouse this laptop fall down from 2 meter high twice,one time closed,one time open and everything STILL WORKING PERFECT! Toshiba !!
TOSHIBA SATELLITE P305D-S8828 IS A GREAT DEALSeptember 26, 2008 This is my first NEW laptop and I am very pleased. In the past, I had purchased a used Toshiba and it is still working. This is everyhthing and more than I had expected. Nice screen and good sound. The fan is a little noisy, but it is 2 speed. Even works fine on dial-up, here in the woods. The processor works fine, but I am not a heavy user. Graphics are good, but I am not a gamer. The hard drive is not really 200 GB, but about 184 GB. The only down fall is Windows Vista, which has a mind of its own. I still have to remove some more of the junk software. I would buy this notebook again. The extended warranties are reasonable and can be added upto 6 months after the purchase.
Great priceAugust 13, 2008 4 out of 5 found this review helpful
The price is very good for these specs. The finish on the laptop makes it look classy and glossy. The laptop is a bit heavy but that's because of the 17" screen which shows very good. There's no DVI out, but a RGB output, which is good for this price range. The integrated video is capable but not for a serious gamer. It handles movies and xvid decoding quite well. The laptop is fast and comes with quite a lot of functional software (as well as trial software that I wish they didn't put on). The keyboard layout is nice. Overall this laptop is powerful and very professional looking. It looks and performs like a much more expensive machine !
Attractive and fast laptopJuly 25, 2008 7 out of 8 found this review helpful
I bought the Toshiba P305D-S8828 from Circuit City as a replacement for my two-year-old desktop. I'm amazed at how fast this laptop is. I have many gigabytes worth of photos and artwork, and they copied onto the Toshiba in just minutes.
The display is big, bright, and crisp. I love how the keyboard includes and full keypad. It's turned out to be very handy. I was a little skeptical at first about the set of touch controls above the keyboard. They turned out to be convenient and easy to use. The volume range is wide, which is nice to see in a Laptop.
The only Con I can think of is that it comes with Vista, but everything does nowadays. It's loaded with "Security Features" which really only make downloading and using programs more difficult.
Overall, I totally recommend this product to anyone looking for a reliable, medium performance laptop.
Great for video and audio conferencingJune 25, 2008 6 out of 9 found this review helpful
One best thing I liked about this Toshiba was that the warranty is available anywhere in the country. I sent this as a gift for my niece overseas. It performs well for what is intended: To chat online. It has a built-in microphone and webcam and we are able to swap still pictures while chatting on line. So far, we have not encountered any difficulties. It does perform smoothly. The sound system is not bad either. It has harman/kardon stereo speakers, Headphone jack (stereo), Microphone jack (mono). It has nice 17" screen, Vista Home Premium, 2.0 GHz processor speed, touch multimedia button. It has a dual-core processor(AMD Turion), 200G HD, 3072 memory, Atheros wireless-Lan. We also use it a lot to make invitation and other greeting cards. Its sufficient enough to handle lots of graphics.
It's a little fat and heavy, but its fusion finish made up for it. Indeed, it looks very stylish. My niece and I like it and use it a lot. No regret in buying it. Cold Eyes
