Keep in mind, a very popular used netbooks a few years ago? The boom has long passed, the demand significantly subsided, and for a long time, these devices have disappeared from sight. However, not for nothing that there is a saying that a new – long-forgotten old! From time to time, one or the other manufacturer produces tablets with the docking keyboard is Toshiba Satellite Click mini review, and the number of users interested in them is growing every day.
For example, Toshiba Satellite Click mini review – 8.9-inch Tablet PC, the package that includes such an important attribute as a docking keyboard. Of course, it extends the range of possibilities of the device, and in fact, we get a sort of a mini-laptop.
DESIGN
This model Toshiba Satellite Click mini review has the white coloring, which is not very practical. Fortunately, the surface of the tablet is not a strong brand, so dust and fingerprints are not too visible. The device is entirely made of plastic, with a matte smooth surface, with the exception of the bottom – it is a little rough. On the cover you can watch your company logo in the bottom left the corner, and diagonally across from it – the rear camera lens.
The Toshiba Satellite Click mini review plaintext looks like any other similar device. The screen is surrounded by a thick frame, even, perhaps, too, for the modern model. At the docking keyboard large keys, besides it does not have the lateral boundaries. The junction of the top to the bottom is quite simple: you have to insert three mounting docking keyboard in the available slots in the screen part. Wait until it clicks into place, after which the device is ready for operation. To disconnect the tablet from the keyboard dock, just press the button and pull the cover up.
Frankly, the assembled transformer looks pretty bulky. Dimensions Toshiba Satellite Click mini review following: 235h171h20 mm, weight is 978 g Weight of the top – 472 grams, so even if you open the lid at 125 degrees (the maximum possible angle), overweight will not. Build quality, in this case, is quite acceptable, but not without nuance, yet plastic – not the strongest material. So, if the pressure on the body, you can hear the squeaks, also with intensive typing docking keyboard begins to rattle.
DISPLAY, AUDIO, AND WEBCAM
Toshiba Satellite Click mini review has 8.9 screen with a resolution of 1920×1200 pixels. Due to its high density – 254 ppi of individual pixels you can not see, even at very close inspection. Maximum brightness is only 215 cd / m2, and due to the high black level (0.14 cd / m2) Contrast ratio is very impressive – 1479: 1. Value sRGB color space reaches only 64%, and even less AdobeRGB – 41%. This means that this device is not well manifest itself in the hands of designers, photographers, etc., that is, the professional objectives he is not on the shoulder.
The low brightness and glossy display surface does not contribute to the operation outside or near a window. The only option – to find a place in the shade, but in this case, the text and the picture will be readable. The screen is based on the matrix IPS, therefore, wide viewing angles and color reproduction does not depend on the level of screen tilt. The capacitive screen supports 10-finger multi-touch.
On the side faces of the tablet PC has one speaker. At the peak, sound is not distorted, and that’s a plus. Explicit minus – lack of bass. The situation is little rescue headphones, also can “play” with the equalizer settings and presets.
Toshiba Satellite Click mini has two cameras, a front webcam resolution – 2 megapixels, and it is perfect for video calling. rear camera resolution higher, namely a 5 megapixel, which allows you to make relatively good shots, but without great detail.
KEYBOARD AND TOUCHPAD
The flat-screen keyboard is made on island basis. It has large buttons around which a lot of free space, so get there at the right key will not be difficult. The average course of the buttons are pressed without effort, but the payoff is too soft. Numpad, of course not, in general, and it is unnatural to this form factor. Since the docking keyboard has turned out quite compact, it is not surprising that the manufacturer had to make some sacrifices for the placement of its buttons. In fact, we have a two-storey [Enter], a small [Delete] on her, and the average size of [Shift] below. On the opposite side cut all important buttons, namely [Shift], [Caps Lock], [Ctrl], [Tab]. Arrows, though placed very compact, handed down a bit further from the main unit, so the hit is clear. Function keys [F1] – [F12] are pressed only in tandem with [Fn], which causes inconvenience, therefore, dissatisfaction on the part of users. In summary, we note the docking keyboard Toshiba Satellite Click mini – is not the best option for prolonged typing, it is more suitable for web surfing, etc. simple tasks.
At the bottom of the work, area is a small touchpad. It has a smooth surface on which a finger is pleasant to drive. Their multitouch support, such as two-finger scrolling, pinch. No physical keys and built-finding can be identified by a vertical divider.
If you use the tablet as a standalone device, the user’s service – a virtual keyboard. I get along with her very simple because the keyboard has large keys with a good response. It is possible to change styles, language, and layout.
PERFORMANCE
Tablet Toshiba Satellite Click mini review runs on Windows 8.1 32-bit operating system. The processor is Intel Atom Z3735F quad, which operates in the frequency range of 1.33-1.83 GHz and a cache level 2 – 2 MB. In addition, the chip is made according to the standards 22 nm process technology, its maximum power consumption is 4 watts.
The integrated Intel HD Graphics graphics (Bay Trail) is able to accelerate to 792 MHz, in addition, the accelerator supports DirectX 11.0 and Shader 5.0. With this GPU can play, but only those games that come out until 2014. For example, the simulator Sims 4 (2014) with a screen resolution of 1366×768 pixels at medium settings will be unplayable fps to 7, but on low settings (1024×768) – will show 56 frames per second. Dota 2 (2013) on the medium-settings and a resolution of 1366×768 pixels are playable with 20 fps, and Diablo III (2012) with the same characteristics and does not start.
The amount of RAM is less than 2 GB of DDR3-1333 MHz standard. The internal memory provided for storing information, a little – a total of 32 GB. However, with the help of a memory card, you can further increase the capacity up to 128 GB.
PORTS AND COMMUNICATIONS
On the left side of the tablet has the following interfaces: port Micro-USB 2.0, video output Micro-HDMI, microSD card reader, combo audio jack and a Windows button. The corresponding face of the docking keyboard empty.
The right side has a Tablet PC Toshiba Satellite Click mini review volume rocker and the power key. On docking keyboard is another full-size USB 2.0 port and card reader SD.
Several built-in sensors – an accelerometer, gyroscope, light sensor, and compass. As for the wireless communications, they are implemented in the form of Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n and Bluetooth 4.0 + LE.
BATTERY
At Toshiba Satellite Click mini review battery in one of the flatbeds and the docking keyboard. Total capacity – 39 Wh, equally between the two batteries. By itself, the tablet does not live for more than five hours of video playback and agree that the number is very small. But it is necessary to use the keyboard dock, and the results are not long in coming: about 17 hours in idle mode, 10 hours for web surfing and about 4 hours while running games (or other demanding tasks). Thus, the folded device is able to last for a whole day, and if you combine the modes even more.
CONCLUSION
Subjectively, the Toshiba Satellite Click mini review – it is not the device that will be in demand in today’s crazy users. Certainly, the idea of the ability to extend the functionality of the tablet typing, very successful. In fact is a bit “chubby” compact notebook, by the way, is quite nice. The display device pleased contrast but upset dark and thick frames on the perimeter.
As for the filling: the level of performance of hardware components – below average. You can sit comfortably on the Internet, working with documents, watch a movie, etc. But when it comes to games, will run only the old, and those often on low settings. Well, and, of course, 32GB is not very tuned in a positive way. Fortunately, this problem is solved by a memory card, the benefit, the device has two card reader.
In general, Toshiba Satellite Click mini review has such drawbacks that offset the advantages, but there are those with which every user wants to put up. Fortunately, the low cost of the device – $ 280 definitely has to experiment.
