Toshiba Satellite L655D-S5066 Review
There is no one standout feature on the Toshiba Satellite L655D-S5066, a low-end 15.6-inch notebook will be sold at Staples, except for the fact that it is based on new vision for AMD platform . Performance from the AMD Turion II CPU is fair at best; laptops with Intel Core i3 and Core i5 CPUs only cost a little more and offer a significantly better performance. The battery life is not to impress. While it is not set fire to the labs, the Satellite L655D-S5066Notebook attractive, anthracite whose exterior looks great both for home or office. And the laptop’s audio output is low compared with previous models we tested have improved satellite. While the Toshiba Satellite L655D-S5066 is doing nothing to offend the outside, your money will go elsewhere to continue.

Design
The Satellite L655D-S5066 comes in a glossy, dark gray chassis that is a subtle design of small, curved shapes draped cube features. It presents an attractive appearance, and despite the glossy surfaces, it is surprisingly immune to picking up stains and fingerprints. The laptop weighs 6.4 pounds, which is average for its size.
Glossy black, consists of flat keys on the keyboard, the roomy feel despite the presence of a separate numeric keypad on the right. The buttons seem a bit clacky, but they offer a comfortable typing. The touchpad is small and has a matte surface. I do not mind its small size because it reduces accidental contact to a minimum. Overall, it a responsive feel, and also supports multi-touch gestures for scrolling, rotating, and zooming. The two large mouse buttons below the touchpad are very comfortable to use. Above the touchpad is a small button that disables the touchpad for times when a mouse is called to duty.

Features
The 15.6-inch display offers a native resolution of 1,366 standard x 768 The screen is bright with good viewing angle. The widescreen display (16:9 aspect ratio) is convenient when working with documents side by side in Windows 7 Home Premium, and it is also good movie playback. A low-grade, 0.3-megapixel Webcam sits above the display, and Toshiba has included facial recognition software on the laptop to log on in boats. But I found it was easier and faster than my Windows password positioning type my cup identify only directly in front of the webcam for her.
The Toshiba Satellite models I have reviewed over the years, rarely if ever offered passable audio. This trend has agreed with the L655D-S5066, the sound, changed the on a par with Dell and HP systems tenders. The laptop stereo speakers sit above the keyboard, behind two attractive, oval grilles. Their sound reaches a much higher volume than in the past, satellites, and it remains clear at maximum volume. I could hear dialogue in the film, although I do not sit in front of the laptop. But for music playback, you will be better with headphones or external speakers and share.

The Satellite L655D-S5066 offers a collection of thoroughly average of ports and connections. One of the 3 USB 2.0 ports, eSATA port also serves as convenient for those who speed data transmission to an external disk. VGA is the only way to output video signals, HDMI is missing here but can on laptop computers, which cost only a bit more to be found, such as the Acer Aspire AS5745-3428 and HP Pavilion DV6-3040us. Ethernet and modem ports enable the wired networking options, while 802.11n Wi-Fi wireless connectivity is concerned.
In line with its average configuration has the L655D-S5066 a 320 GB hard drive and a DVD burner, both standard products at this price. The Acer Aspire AS5741-6073 surprised us with a 500 GB hard drive, as you will need up to $ 830 or more to spend in order to get a Blu-ray drive. The Samsung R530 is one of the cheapest laptops to have Blu-ray support.

Performance
Based on AMD’s new vision platform, faster DDR3 memory, HyperTransport 3 and Direct X 11 support, the Satellite L655D-S5066 dual-core 2.3GHz Turion II P520 CPU, 4 GB DDR3 memory and ATI Radeon HD 4225 integrated graphics. Any modern dual-core CPU offers snappy performance for basic tasks in Windows 7 which is the case here. Applications load quickly, and I did not have any delays when multitasking. However, if you look on the Intel-based competition, you see that may have a better performance only for a little more money. The PCMark Vantage score of 5094 was 28 percent better than the Satellite L655D-S5066’s score of 3965. I saw similar spreads between the two systems in Cinebench R10 and our real-world media encoding tests.

The Satellite L655D-S5066 could not complete our MobileMark 2007 battery test, due to a software conflict I was unable to locate. Instead, I cited two anecdotal tests and the 6-cell (48WHr) battery lasted about three hours. The first test included more video playback, and the system was only 2 hours 30 minutes. On the second examination, which contain less video playback and more Web surfing and office applications, it ran closer to the at 3:30.
In the end, it is difficult to build a recommendation more on the search for the Toshiba Satellite L655D-S5066. While we are on the keyboard, spacious and comfortable, found to respond to multi-touch touchpad, and the sound improved noticeably from the past Satellites to prevent so-so performance and battery life a higher rating.
