Toshiba Portege R400 tablet PC

 

If you've ever spent some time with a Tablet PC then you'll find features you'll like but more often than not, you'll come away thinking that it's just a little too heavy and the battery life doesn't warrant the extra expense over a standard notebook....

Great design, amazing screen, powerful

Not cheap, integrated graphics

The Toshiba Portege R400 has restored our faith in the Tablet PC format.

Toshiba Portege R400-106 review

 

It's also very tactile, as the Toshiba Portege R400-106 is extremely small and light, at just 304x239x29.5mm and 1.7kg.

The Toshiba Portege R400-106 is certainly sophisticated, both in terms of looks and functionality. If you want a tablet PC this is probably one of the most attractive you'll find, it's light, well built and highly secure, but when it comes to the...

Toshiba Portege R400-S4931

 

Despite recent rave reviews for its ultraportable convertible tablet, the Portege M200, Toshiba seems to have taken a step backward with its new Toshiba Portege R400-S4931. Here's our first review of the Toshiba Portege R400-S4931, which is not yet...

The R400-S4931 is stylish, and its side LED and wireless-focused design may be trailblazing. But too many design inconveniences, along with difficult tablet input, make this model one of Toshiba's rare unsuccessful efforts.

Toshiba Portégé R400

 

A pricey but stylish and practical ultraportable that turns into a practical tablet PC as well, the Toshiba Portégé R400 has plenty of unusual and useful utilities but also a few rough edges.

Toshiba Portege R400 (PPR40A-01000L)

 

It looks almost identical to its predecessor, but the latest Portege R400 hides one small feature that makes all the difference, a wireless 3G adapter...

HSDPA 3G, OLED notification screen, lightweight and easy to use on both notebook and tablet PC modes

No optical drive, does not support the full 7.2Mbps speeds of Telstra's Next G network, lacks ports

The Portege R400 was already a sleek and stylish design with some useful features, but the increased speed of HSDPA 3G makes it all the more appealing.

The Toshiba Portege R400 Tablet PC may carry a premium price tag, but it comes with some innovative new features and the promise of more still in later models. It's sturdy and lightweight, and looks stylish. Although it might be better to wait until...
