I read reviews and looked at laptops for several manufacturers. I chose this laptop for the price and value. I purchased it and went to a second Best Buy store the same day to see what they had on sale and found out that my laptop was $25 less there. Customer service made a price adjustment and gave me the difference. For $675, you can't beat what the laptop comes with.
Although I've had it for 3 days, I'm very pleased with the purchase.
What's great about it: pros: lightweight, battery lasts a long time
What's not so great: cons: stil getting to know it
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this laptop about a month ago, when it was still $749.99. Even at that price, it was still a tremendous bargain for the features! The inclusion of a fingerprint reader and backlit keyboard are great additions that are normally only found in much more expensive models. The case itself is very eye-catching, and the unit feels nice and sturdy overall - the keyboard has good feedback and doesn't feel flimsy, which is a common fault of mid-to-low-range models. Overall, this feels like much more laptop than the price suggests.
Now, the bad parts. Everything you've heard about the speaker quality is true. Not only are they tinny and underpowered, but their location on the edge of the case means that sound is directed at your belly instead of your ears. I tried watching a movie while waiting for my flight, and the general din of the gate traffic was enough to drown out the sound completely. Also, the case is scratch-prone. There are skins available to help this, and I wish I'd bought one prior to traveling with this. Even in a pouch by itself, it managed to emerge on the other end of the trip with scratches. And lastly, the keyboard can be hard to read when not backlit. The color of the keyboard is nice, but it doesn't contrast strongly enough against the white type on the keys to be seen in most lighting conditions. This is really a minor concern thanks to the backlight feature, though.
Battery life has thus far been exactly as advertised. I get about 5 hours per charge out of it when working offline, 4 hours with wi-fi, or about 2.5 hours on movie playback. No complaints. Also, this model doesn't run hot like so many others have been known to do.
The bottom line: this has a lot of great features and its hardware can tackle most anything you throw at it. This won't handle gaming or video editing, but multitasking, Photoshop, and general internet and business uses are no problem. I highly recommend picking this up for anything but the most strenuous computing!
What's great about it: Battery life, build quality, multi-tasking
What's not so great: Keyboard type contrast when not backlit, scratch-prone case, poor speakers
I would recommend this to a friend!

I agree with the other reviewer who was a bit surprised at a lot of the negativity surrounding this laptop. I also researched the poo out of it and it's an absolute steal. Nothing else comes close spec-wise in its price-range. I strongly advise getting one before they're gone **This was a clearance item at the Best Buy store, meaning you need to hurry if you want one.
I just took this out of the box and have been getting to know it for the past three hours, so keep that in mind. I previously used a Gateway M275 and an M285 before that, just so you know what laptop experiences I have to compare the E105 to.
My high rating is based on price-for-performance, so keep my above scores in mind as the bottom line as you read my negative comments below:
Firstly, the laptop speakers are supposed to suck, and they do suck just fine, so thank you, Toshiba. Compared to my Gateway, the volume seems at least as loud and maybe not quite as clear, but who cares.
Onto more negative... It's not designed that well, but that's just my opinion. There's nowhere to rest your hand while using the touchpad, and so far I'm not enjoying having the edge of the laptop pressed against my wrist over long periods of touchpadding. The mouse buttons have a strange give/play to them, are thinly noisy, and feel cheap (as does the entire case), but I'm making them sound worse than they are. They do their job fine, and it's a fairly minor issue, for me at least. The right-click button on mine is also sunken in a bit at the top-left corner, which makes me sad, but as long as it works... As I said, the whole case has a cheap plastic kind of feel. I don't personally like the glossy finish either. It gets fingerprints, and I don't see any point to it besides looking flashy and shiny, which I personally don't care about. The keyboard feels a bit iffy at first, but I'm already used to it. Typing on the keys feels like a dead-fish handshake, but luckily, our fingers are adaptable, and I'm already man-handling the keys assertively the way they require without conscious effort. In other words, the keys feel unresponsive and unfirm. The backlighting under the keyboard is very nice.
The FM antenna, awkward in the first place, works just fine for picking up FM radio, but plugging it into the machine is a very tight fit, and it made me feel like maybe I wasn't supposed to press it in all the way.
The webcam is nice, and Toshiba did include the optional heart frame special effect to put around your face while camming, among others, in case that's a make-or-break issue for any of you.
The media controls on the right, for me, are still annoyingly placed. I've accidentally muted the computer a good five times so far. Maybe I'll get used to it, though.
If you can overcome those problems, you're in for a huge treat. This machine is filled with all the goodies, because it's consumer-designed, and they want all the special features, which I won't bother to list.
But the 4GB of RAM and steal of a CPU (2.26 GHz) make it feel like it's impossible to slow the computer down much, even when I opened about 15 windows and tons of IE tabs and YouTubes and Googlevideos. It made me melty, and that's why this computer is great, because if you wanted performance like that from another computer, you'd have to spend over $1,000 at least. And performance is the bottom line, as long as the machine works, even if it feels a little cheap. And to be honest, it doesn't feel *that* cheap. I'm just picking on it because I care about you.
The E105 is portable and light and delicious to carry around. Another fun surprise is that the power adaptor is a two-prong, instead of three, meaning you can plug in anywhere. Hooray.
If this laptop had any similarly-priced competitors based on sheer performance, I'd probably not recommend this machine, but because it's priced so low, this is the best steal for budget-hunters I could find anywhere. And I looked around plenty.
One final note, since this has integrated Intel graphics, that means you probably should look elsewhere if you want to use it to play games or do any 3D stuff or video-editing.
I would recommend this laptop to a friend. I would recommend it to the Lord. Buy one before it's too late.
What's great about it: Speedy, portable, delicious
What's not so great: The design
I would recommend this to a friend!

The laptop is really worth for the price. Its a super-fast machine. I have got an HP dv5 100US laptop which freezes at times and its screen flickers too. But this machine does not have any problem and works efficiently. Moreover the laptop is easy to handle though it does'nt have rounded edge. But the speaker quality is of very poor quality. I am surprised why Toshiba didnt take care of this. But overall the machine is excellent.
What's great about it: Apt laptop for business use, fast, great looks
What's not so great: The sound doesnt seem to be much appealing

I was shopping for a more compact solution then my HP DV6000 15.4" laptop. The DV6000 I have is a special edition so it's got the oversize heavy battery on it, in total the HP is about 7lbs which was just really annoying. All though not very old the DV6000 made a great gift for the wife who now gets her own laptop.
I was really looking for a pre built system to keep me from having to wait weeks for a custom build. The issue I had is that most pre built systems just lack all the features, the fingerprint reader, blue tooth, wireless n, and so on. My choice was between this and the HP 13.3" DV3 blue label and this Toshiba. I thought for sure the HP was a no brainer since I've already owned one but after some research and deep thought about it, I decided to give the Toshiba a try. The price tag was much less for a faster laptop with a larger screen. This Toshiba is only about .3 lbs heavier then the 13" HP. It's also got all the same extra features the HP has aside from the LED backlit screen.
The Good about this Toshiba
- Battery Life is awesome, probably better then the DV6000 with the massive 12 cell battery
- Light and manageable. Its so much easier to deal with being that its only 4.99lbs compared to bigger laptops.
- 14" screen is a perfect compromise for size and portability
- Backlit keyboard is sweet, you don't know what your missing till you have one
- I notice none of the "weak" key feeling I've seen in some reviews. It feels solid and easy to type on for me.
- It's got enough power to keep you satisfied, if your looking to game then this won't make you happy but for everything else it's perfect. Save the powerhouse desktops for gaming.
- Barely any bloatware which makes for an easy set up, less time having to remove garbage.

- Barely any bloatware which makes for an easy set up, less time having to remove garbage.
The few cons I did notice
- Seems like you have to take the entire back panel off to change a hard drive, no easy access panel like many others. Haven't really looked into it so maybe changing the HDD isn't really that bad but a removable panel would have been nice.
- The speakers, They are just BAD. I read other reviews that said they were bad but I thought how bad could they possibly be. They are TERRIBLE. It's almost amazing they would even make it to a production computer. Its unbelieveable that some body some where said it was ok to leave these speakers in it. For me it's not a huge deal since most of the times I use headphones, but even turning them on to share a youtube video with the guy next to you is almost embarrassing.

All in all though, dispite the horrendous speakers, it's really a great deal. It's got the better core duo P series CPU that runs cooler and takes less power. That alone is $150 upgrade when doing a build on the OEM's website. Its jam packed with all the features you'll need and then some and for a price that really can't be beat. The total package is just an A+
Don't think twice about this one over the HP. This is the laptop to get in this class.
What's great about it: Backlit Keyboard, all the bells and wistles, price, weight, cool and quiet, battery life
What's not so great: speakers are really really bad

I bought this instead of the blue label HP because I liked the touchpad more and it was cheaper for the same specs and a longer battery life.
I've only had it a couple days but it has been working great and didn't come with too much excess software. The only problem I have had with it is how hot it gets. I don't know if it's a flaw in all of them or only mine, but its much hotter than the 4 year old IBM thinkpad it is replacing.
Overall though, great speed and size and Vista isn't as bad as everyone says, so far I haven't noticed many differences in performance to XP and I'm glad I saved money and didn't buy a Mac to avoid it.
What's great about it: Fast, nice keyboard, lightweight
What's not so great: gets too hot

I went into Best Buy looking for a laptop with both Bluetooth and a Fingerprint Reader and the associates pointed me to this Blue Label laptop. I bought it when it was $800 and I thought it was an incredible value. (With the free financing Best Buy was offering, I had to buy it.) I actually started wondering what was wrong with it because it seemed too good to be true. I've had it now for over a month, and honestly there isn't really anything wrong with it - it's a great machine.
The screen is very bright - next to my Gateway laptop it simply doesn't compare. My only concern with the screen is that it seems too thin and flexible and I worry it's not as durable as other screens I've seen.
The touchpad isn't the best, but I rarely use it. I specifically wanted Bluetooth because I'm using a Bluetooth notebook mouse. Spend the extra money and get a Bluetooth mouse - your wrists and fingers will thank you.
The Fingerprint Reader was challenging at first to set up. Run Windows Update if you have problems with it because mine, at first, would never read my fingerprint correctly. After Windows installed an update to the fingerprint software and restarted - everything has been running smoothly.
The battery life for me has been around 4 hours when listening to music, surfing the webpage, and running Office. I also run a USB-powered chill mat underneath it. (It does get significantly warm after only 30 minutes of use, but, to me, that's nothing abnormal.)
The guts of the machine - processor and RAM - are a perfect combination. I can run memory-intense programs like PhotoShop with absolutely no slow down. The machine boots very quickly and multitasks without skipping a beat. I was also impressed that there weren't a bunch of bells and whistles pre-installed. The initial startup was so quick because there wasn't any junk running. The Norton subscription that comes with this is such a great deal. The Geek Squad 24-hour support is also very nice - they assisted me intially when I couldn't get the Fingerprint Reader working. Very knowledgeable and friendly staff.
I've only tried the CD/DVD writer a few times and both times it seemed a bit slow as compared to other machines I've had in the past.
This is a 64-bit version of Vista so be aware that there may be some issues running certain software. The only thing I have encountered so far is an issue with one particular feature of OneNote but I was able to find a workaround.
The last thing I want to mention is that there is no access to the RAM module underneath the machine. It appears that you'd have to take the entire case apart. It wasn't a deal breaker for me as there is already 4GB of RAM.
Overall, a wonderful machine at a great price. I've been very happy with my purchase - definitely one of the best machines I've owned.

I had been researching a new laptop for several days when I came across this item at best buy. Through all the searching I kept coming back to this machine because of it's nice specs and good price. It is turning out to be a great machine. The backlit keyboard works great and the touchpad has many features that you don't even really need the buttons. I only wish it had the gesture ability like the aluminum macbooks. The speakers are so-so and most reviewers have pointed that out. At first I thought the finger print reader was a nice gimmick but since I set it up it works perfectly and allows me to password protect the machine without having to type it in all the time. At first I wasn't sure of the boxy look but it kind of grows on you and the fusion finnish looks nice. I like how the touchpad feels but I wish it and the keyboard were centered instead of to the left. The machine is really fast and the display is nice and bright. I have only had it a few days but I have had a Toshibe lcd tv for one and a half years with no problems so hope to have the same luck with this laptop.
What's great about it: Fast, lighted keyboard, light weight and long battery life
What's not so great: Keyboard and touchpad off set to the left

Really great price especially with the discount that was available in the store that day. The fingerprint reader is between the clickers which is perfect b/c it doesnt get in the way. I didnt even realize that there was a camera card reader which works perfectly for my olympus--no wires. I bought the insignia speakers which sit on the top of the screen-this is necessary if you plan on watching movies or listening to music and dont want a raspy noise. The backlit keyboard has come in handy so many times, I am not quite sure how I used to type without it. The startup is quick and easy. Some of the plugs are in wierd places (towards the user on the left side) and the battery only really last three or so hours when performing multiple tasks. The keyboard is quite secure and the keys feel good while typing. The computer makes very little fan noise. If you are looking for a computer for school with good speed, good memory, and a web camera--this comp beats out the competition in both features and price.
What's great about it: Camera card slot, great price (under 800 with discount), fingerprint reader
What's not so great: speakers, area around keyboard smudges

I compared alot of laptops and this one had much more to offer, although it did not have the 17" monitor I am pleased with this greatly. I also recieved a tv turner with it which works great. If your looking for a laptop DO NOT leave this one out of your comparisons. Also, the Best Buy people are great, they helped me out alot too.
What's great about it: Everything, it still amazes me everytime I use it.
What's not so great: nothing
I would recommend this to a friend!

This is my second Toshiba and once again, I am pleased. I love the way Toshiba packs so many features into this computer and still manages to keep the price low. I was debating between this and an HP and when I compared the features, I realized that I was getting more for less money. The fingerprint and facial recognition; long battery life; the memory capacity and drive speed; the small screen; the HDMI port AND it has a great look! I have owned HP, Compaq, Toshiba and Sony computers. Toshiba is definitely the best value!
What's great about it: great display, amazing battery life, sleek look, great features for the price
What's not so great: nothing so far
I would recommend this to a friend!

I'm a Sony man but I needed a CPU that had everything but didn't cost a lot of money. The backlit keyboard is awesome and I wonder how I ever did without. I also like that it comes with a 2 year warranty and 15 months of Norton. It's very lighwieght and the battery life is as good as everyone says. I have an external hard drive with eSata port and I'm amazed at how fast the transfer speed is through the eSata port. Speakers suck but I never really use those for anything important so it doesn't bother me. I also like that is came with recovery DVD's so that I didn't have to do it myself. The fingerprints aren't noticeable because of the light color. I hate all of the glossy laptops these days, tons of fingerprints and smears that drive me nuts. I'd recommend this laptop to anyone.
What's great about it: battery life, backlit keyboard, design, esata port, long warranty, lightweight
What's not so great: speakers suck, touchpad is too big
I would recommend this to a friend!
