Toshiba Tecra X40-D-10H review

 

This light but powerful Ultrabook rivals the likes of Dell and HP offerings

Light yet powerful ; 14-inch display ; Great USB Type-C support

No PCIe SSD ; Missing LAN port

Avoiding the temptation of showboating like Apple, Toshiba has designed a very functional Ultrabook that has utilized the best technology where it’s most needed.

Toshiba Tecra X40-D-10H review: A powerful, but ultimately underwhelming, laptop

 

A speedy ultraportable, but the screen and fan noise mean it will struggle to woo fans

Overall performance ; Excellent keyboard

Subdued screen ; Fans get very loud

You know you’re in trouble, though, when the thing you most like about a laptop is its docking station. As I mentioned at the start of this review, competition is tough. While an identically specified ThinkPad X1 Carbon (with a 512GB SSD) would cost...

Toshiba Tecra X40-D

 

The Toshiba Tecra X40-D convertible-hybrid laptop delivers the design, sturdy build, component choices, and overall performance to support its premium price, but a few quirks hold it back.

Light chassis. Comfortable keyboard. Solid selection of ports. Multiple security options. Three-year warranty.

Pricey. Shorter battery life than rivals. Small auxiliary keys.

Bottom Line: The Toshiba Tecra X40-D convertible-hybrid laptop delivers the design, sturdy build, component choices, and overall performance to support its premium price, but a few quirks hold it back.

Toshiba Tecra X40-D (i7-7600U, FHD) Laptop Review

 

Carbon Copy. Toshiba's new Tecra X40-D is the Japanese manufacturer's latest entry in the thin-and-light business market and carries over several features from its smaller brother, the Portégé X30. Is the X40 able to differentiate itself enough, or is...

gorgeous chassis ; study build ; very thin and lightweight ; two Thunderbolt 3 ports ; excellent system performance ; speedy SSD

lid is thin and flexes easily ; fingerprints readily show ; keyboard is noisy and subpar ; speakers are thin ; display is mediocre compared to rivals

The Toshiba Tecra X40 is essentially the Portègè X30 with a 14-inch display. As such, it shares many of the same strengths and weaknesses of its smaller brother. The beautiful chassis is well engineered and very sturdy while remaining fairly light for...

Toshiba Tecra X40-D review: A solid 14-inch business laptop with a great keyboard

 

Toshiba's Tecra range offers good computing power in a relatively lightweight, travel-friendly format. This mix doesn't come cheap, but with a starting price of £999 (ex. VAT) for laptops in the 14-inch Tecra X40 range, Toshiba is competing with...

Lightweight and well made ; Matte-finish touchscreen ; Excellent keyboard ; MicroSD card slot ; Multiple authentication and security features

Battery life could be longer ; Display lacks vibrancy
