Overview

Toshiba Portégé M400 3G143

Editors rating
Rating: 7.0
Verdict

We're not convinced that the Portégé M400 is the ideal combination of size, weight and functionality for a convertible Tablet PC, and would have liked to see the same features in a rather lighter notebook.

Typical price

£ 1149
