Toshiba Mini NB305-N440BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook (8 Hour Battery Life) Review

Toshiba Mini NB305-N440BL 10.1-Inch Royal Blue Netbook (8 Hour Battery Life)
This is the first time I bought a cheap computer in my life. This is my 7th Computer and I could say that this has a good performance for a cheap laptop.
I use this in school and work as a Paramedic and it works fine. It is handy in my job. Also, it is scratch resistant which the first thing that I got attracted it does not have the shiny skin which I hate because I do not like scratches. The speaker is too small for this laptop which I did not like. I also put games in it such as Fate. I haven’t try to put more games in it because this is not a gaming PC. Battery life is good enough to stay longer in school and work.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N310/BN 10.1-Inch Sable Brown Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N310/BN 10.1-Inch Sable Brown Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life
This is an awesome machine with lots of power and style. I can find no downside: even with only 1gb main memory (expandable to two) I can do anything I want with it. Yes, HD video can have playback issues (waiting for the large files to load) but most everything else is spot on.

The keboard is excellent even for larger laptops. If I were to look for caveat it would be the ability to view in indirect sunlight–you can’t do it well. But seeing I’m usually home or Starbucks, that has not been an issue for me. I am a web designer so at times I deal with large files, the netbook handles them well.

If you are looking for a stylish blue Netbook, look no further than the Royal Blue Toshiba Mini Netbook. Currently, there is only one of the best-looking blue netbooks on the market. The outer shell of the netbook has a matte surface with fine diagonal lines. This will be highlighted by a bright blue metallic hinge. The touchpad and keyboard area is silver / gray in color. It is key on the keyboard right to the edge to give the user more room to enter. Overall, the design of theToshiba blue Mini is just sublime!

Toshiba Mini NB205-N325WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I have loved this netbook. The battery life is great, the appearance of the netbook is great. I love the textured cover. I got it in chocolate brown. It’s a great color. I think it’s very easy to type on, and the portability is great. It fits into my purse with no problem. I am not that knowledgable as far as the specifics of any computer, but I have found no problems working this computer. It runs quickly, even after I installed the whole Microsoft Office system. I would definitely recommend this netbook to anyone. It is easy to use, great in appearance, and very portable.

Toshiba Mini NB305-N410WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 11 Hours of Battery Life Review

Toshiba Mini NB305-N410WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 11 Hours of Battery Life
I have had this netbook for 2 weeks and after moderate use the only complaint is the keyboard. I find that at least 1 or 2 keys tend to stick down after being pressed, and they click back up after a second. It’s very unusual and I was not able to find a solution on the Toshiba technical support website.

Otherwise, the display is good, the size is great, and the battery life is as described. It’s a great way to browse the web and check email on the road or at play.

Toshiba Mini 300 Series NB305-N310 10.1-Inch Netbook - Black Onyx Review

Toshiba Mini 300 Series NB305-N310 10.1-Inch Netbook - Black Onyx
I too have carefully researched my decision to add a netbook as a in-between addition to my iPhone and Macbook Pro. I completely agree with the below reviews that this netbook really shines and is worth the extra money. I almost went with Asus but trying one out in-store, I did not like the trackpad and how cheap it felt in your hand. This netbook exudes quality in the hand and performs so well, you forget it is a netbook. I am only writing to add a warning to those where the following issues may be an issue. While the keyboard is full size and quite comfortable and the trackpad does have multi-touch, there a couple of issues that might be a problem for some. First the keyboard keys have a different responsiveness on the lower row of keys right next to the trackpad, especially the space bar. These keys take more pressure than the other keys which can throw you off at first. You have to make a mental note to press a little harder or you will be missing space keys, periods, commas, etc. If you use more than one computer, this takes a few moments of adjustments each time you are entering a lot of text but it is a flaw that can be overcome. Second, the trackpad and the multi-touch is a little sensitive. I haven’t found multi-touch specific adjustments for the pad, just an ability to turn it off and on and your normal control panel mouse options. The trackpad can sometimes hang-up or scroll very quickly.
These issues plus the Windows 7 starter don’t make me regret my decision to buy this netbook, they just make me appreciate my Macbook even more. I would suggest trying one out in store first and try scrolling through websites you use often. Also, try typing a paragraph on it to determine if it is the right choice for you.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N210 (NB200 series) 10.1-Inch Black Netbook - 9 Hour Battery Life
Mines actually shipped with Windows XP installed instead of Windows 7 Starter, which is what I preferred anyways. Did not need to upgrade the RAM to 2GB because I use XP and ran mostly firefox, microsoft office, itunes, videos, etc. If you’re going to game, use photoshop, install windows 7 ultimate or other heavy apps then upgrade to 2GB RAM.

Toshiba Mini NB205-N330WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter) Review

Toshiba Mini NB205-N330WH 10.1-Inch Frost White Netbook - 9 Hours of Battery Life (Windows 7 Starter)
I’ve had my Toshiba NB205 N330 Netbook for a week. I have really enjoyed it very much! I love the design, the keyboard and the large touch pad. I gave the netbook a 4 because as someone else here mentioned, the speakers truly are non-existant but you can increase them a little by going into the equalizer settings and choosing “Powerful or Live” and it does make them a little louder.

Also as others have mentioned there are times when the touchpad doesn’t respond for a few seconds.
