The Toshiba Satellite U845t, now with touch! Video Transcript

Hi. I'm Scott Stein at CES 2013 and Touch is the theme. I'm here with the Toshiba Satellite U845t. Now, back in the fall, we look at this Ultrabook and it's an affordable 14-inch Ultrabook and it has been updated with, yes, 10-point multitouch. And the price is pretty reasonable, $799. You basically have the specs and the features that you have in the last model, but you add touch and they're really not anything that much to the equation price. Well, it's about $50. It's coming out later this year and it is a sleek design and it has a standard 500 GB hard drive with an SSD cache and backlit keyboard. We liked it before and you know, touch is pretty essential and a lot of these Ultrabooks of Windows 8. It's nice and if you can't pay that-- you have to pay that much for it. It's nice not to be able to do that. So, the good news is that come later this year probably. A lot of laptops you like will have touch in them, so there's no real decision to be made and they're not gonna cost that much more money. I'm Scott Stein and that's a look of the Toshiba Satellite U845t touch.

Toshiba Satellite U845t Review

The good: The Toshiba Satellite U845T is thin, with a decent brushed-aluminum body, a 128GB SSD, and better performance and battery life than the competition.

The bad: The keyboard has squeezed-down keys, a small spacebar, and some flex under heavy typing. The low screen resolution feels dated in a midsize laptop.

The bottom line: While it's not going to dazzle anyone, the Toshiba Satellite U845T is a great example of exactly how much laptop $799 should buy in 2013.
