The newly updated 16″ Notebook A350 series from Toshiba is a sound artist, to all that we loved about the first generation of notebook and improvement in some areas. Power technically improved, but since Toshiba went with a smaller capacity battery, battery actually declined. The shiny surface fusion is still a scratch-resistant, as it always was, but still very vulnerable as smear. The system performance is great when compared against the non-gaming notebooks, and the dual hard drives ton of potential to open for a lot of space. One thing Toshiba should have dealt with this new model is the starting price. This means, consumers, shopping on the basis of price and specifications, we will “better” gaming machines, if they so in the vicinity of the costs.
