Toshiba Debuts the Satellite Radius Multimode Laptop
Toshiba's Digital Products Division (DPD), a division of Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., today introduced Satellite Radius, a multimode laptop with a 360-degree "flip-and-fold" design that enables five different viewing and usage modes. Featuring a 15.6-inch diagonal Full HD touchscreen display, built for powerful performance and shipping with Windows 8.1, the Satellite Radius is ideal for consumers and mobile professionals looking for a big screen to multitask, create, consume and play.
"Toshiba has a longstanding heritage in designing convertibles and has made extensive R&D investments into hybrid designs with the goal of pushing the limits of what a standard laptop can ultimately do," said Philip Osako, senior director of product marketing, Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Digital Products Division. "As people increasingly understand the benefits of next-gen hybrid PCs, we're ready to meet their needs with innovative products that are both adaptable and affordable."
A Mode for Every Occasion
The Satellite Radius features a two-axis hinge design and a smart-locking keyboard that enables five key usage modes:
Designed with premium-grade materials, the Satellite Radius features a brushed aluminum enclosure and frameless LED backlit keyboard. Configurable with a powerful 4th generation Intel Core i5 or i7 processor, 8 GB of memory and up to 1 terabyte hard drive storage, the Satellite Radius doubles as a strong work machine and entertainment device with a long battery life rating.
The Satellite Radius features premium speakers from Harman Kardon, a leader in premium audio, complemented by audio processing by DTS Sound delivering rich and natural 'studio-quality' audio. The laptop also includes ultrafast 802.11ac Wi-Fi ideal for streaming movies and music, plus Intel WiDi5 wireless display support technologies. Additionally, the included HDMI port supports 4K output to compatible HDTVs, enabling consumers to enjoy the highest quality video currently possible. The laptop also includes an HD webcam and dual-array microphones with beam-forming technology that provide clear, crisp audio for video chatting. Dragon Assistant voice control technology is also included, empowering users to speak commands to search the web, post updates to social networks, check email and more.
A variety of ports extend the convertible's functionality, including three USB 3.0 ports, one with Toshiba's USB Sleep & Charge technology that enables the charging of USB-powered electronics even when the device is powered off. The Satellite Radius also features a range of built-in tablet sensors, including an accelerometer, gyroscope, compass and ambient light sensor for a more robust tablet experience.
Pricing and Availability
The Satellite Radius will be available for purchase beginning early July, exclusively at Best Buy and on toshiba.com/us, starting at $925.99 MSRP.
