This Toshiba Qosmio X775 has got enthusiast-level specifications, so it is a high performance gaming notebook computer. Though it has 500GB hard drive, it still seems smaller than mainstreamed 40GB, 750GB, and 1TB drives. Qosmio X775 has non-traditional appearance. This powerful notebook has a low-res screen, outlandish design and mediocre build quality. If you are looking for a high-end multimedia use laptop, Toshiba Qosmio X775 is your best option.
Of course, some people may love it, however, and a great majority of people may not appreciate it. The X775′s shape is not as extreme as the previous-generation Qosmio X305, but what it lacks in curves it makes up for in bizarre colors. The palm rest and lid surface have a wood grain-like texture with metal silver paint which is almost blinding in direct light; needless to say, I am not a fan. The colors fade between black and red, which adds to the extreme look (for better or worse).
The build quality is disappointing. The X775′s plastic construction does little to differentiate it from most budget notebooks; more upscale materials are required on a notebook this expensive. The chassis has significant flex when twisted by the corners, meaning this notebook needs a stronger internal frame. The lid is flimsy and can be twisted with almost no effort; ripples appear on the screen when pressed from behind, indicating the display panel itself has little protection.
Overall the gaudy design is tough to like and the build quality is substandard compared to other multimedia and gaming laptops in the same price range.
Toshiba Qosmio X775 Ports and Features
