• No longer a Toshiba's Fan

  Jagpreet Singh on Flipkart.com | 01-10-2013

  I used to be a Toshiba fan but not after getting this laptop (this is my 3rd Toshiba laptop). I need to put my brand loyalty somewhere else. Good parts: 1. Config is good. This is pretty decent powerful machine. Core i5, 1GB Grpahics, 4GB RAM 2. Display is good 3. Keyboard has a numpad. Very useful since I am a software developer. Disappointments: 1. The body even though looks good from a distance is actually a very flimsy and poor quality plastic. I just hope that hardware under the hood is not as bad as this plastic. 2. For some reason HDD LED light is missing. If my harddisk is getting used un-necassarily in background (some new stupid s/w or malware or OS gets stuck etc.) I have no way of knowing this. 3. Speakers are below average. 4. Arrows keys on laptop are way too small. 5. Touch pad is rough and has lot of friction to it. I got my 1st Toshiba laptop from US around 3 years back (core i3, for 25k). Apart from specs my old laptop beats the shit out of this new one. Toshiba..If you are reading this..you just lost a loyal customer!

  I bought this laptop 5 days back. Flipkart was amazing with the delivery of this product which within 4 days. Now about the toshiba X5214. Pros. 1. Amazing looks, silver crocodile texture & glossy finish 2. 3210 processor & HM 76 express Intel chipset. 3. Speakers are good. Sound is clear. 4. Screen/display is very much clear & bright. Glossy. 5. 1GB graphic card does make a difference. 6. USB 3.0 slot. Cons. 1. Battery back up is around 2 to 2.5 hours when in full use. 2. Flipkart didn't provide any bag packs with this nor they provide any software/driver CD. 3. Its a heavy laptop 4. Here on flipkart it says, B75 chipset, But i got HM 76 express chipset which is an older chipset and not that good in performance when its compared with B75. B75 is ideally suited for 3210 processors. 5. Web cam is average 6. Laptop heats up in 45 to 90 mins. I am disappointed that due to flipkart wrong information i got HM 76 express chipset and not B75. No accessories with this purchase. No bag pack, no software/driver CD. Overall a good 3rd gen laptop not the best nor the perfect one. It could have been better with price tag of Rs.42000/-
