Toshiba, however, is going Big Love for its new 11.6-inch T115 and 13.3-inch T135 ultraportables, which can both run AMD Neo, AMD Turion or Intel Pentium SU4100 processors. Nothing absolutely blazing, but at the $450 starting point (for AMD) you&#8217;re hardly past a netbook cost for something considerably peppier. The laptops, which measure less than an inch thick and weigh 3.5 and 3.9 pounds, respectively, offer up 9 hours of battery on Intel and 6 hours on AMD, with the ATI Radeon HD 3200 graphics in the latter providing some decent low-power video decoding (including Blu-ray, if you have an external drive). Prices scale up to $700, with a 320GB hard drive and 4GB of RAM at the high end.<\/p>\n<p>We played around with both models, and while there&#8217;s nothing specific to gripe about, we can&#8217;t say we&#8217;re super impressed by Toshiba&#8217;s heavy handed, ultra-gloss approach. It feels a little last gen and cheap, particularly in comparison to the refined <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/04\/toshiba-mini-nb305-adds-atom-n450-to-a-successful-formula\/\">mini NB305<\/a> &#8212; whose chiclet keyboard is almost preferable to the slightly mushy keys on display here. The price point and feature set makes these certainly worth a further look, but we wish Toshiba would get over its plastic fetish and make something a bit more desirable.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p><strong>Gallery: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/\">Toshiba T115 and T135 hands-on<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/2585123\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.engadget.com\/media\/2010\/01\/t100-hands-01_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/2585121\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.engadget.com\/media\/2010\/01\/t100-hands-02_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/2585120\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.engadget.com\/media\/2010\/01\/t100-hands-03_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/2585119\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.engadget.com\/media\/2010\/01\/t100-hands-04_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/photos\/toshiba-t115-and-t135-hands-on\/2585118\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.blogcdn.com\/www.engadget.com\/media\/2010\/01\/t100-hands-05_thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/06\/toshibas-t115-and-t135-thin-and-lights-start-at-450-offer-int\/\">Toshiba&#8217;s T115 and T135 thin-and-lights start at $450, offer Intel and AMD flavors<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\">Engadget<\/a> on Wed, 06 Jan 2010 09:30:00 EST.
