Toshiba Portege R30-A in-depth review

Every now and then a perfectly good device gets lost in time and doesn't receive the much-deserved attention and that's the case with the Toshiba Portege R30-A - a reliable little guy that emphasizes on its business-oriented capabilities. It has its drawbacks, just like ever another device on the market, but there are some features that cannot be overlooked and make this device as it is. In short, this device serves as a great business companion if you can only find one in your area, of course. The model is actually more than a year and half old, so don't get surprised by the outdated hardware[...]

Pros

Exceptionally solid construction
Relatively light chassis (1.411 kg)
Bright screen
Good performance for the asking price
Full range of ports and connections
Good keyboard and touchpad
Excellent battery runtimes

Cons

A little bit too thick
Low screen contrast ratio
It gets a bit too hot on the left side and below the main exhaust vent (may obstruct normal usage on the lap)
Noisy fan even when the notebook isn't uner heavy load
The screen uses PWM from 0 to 99% brightness
