From the lime-green rubberised lid to the integrated Harmon/Kardon speakers, the Toshiba NB520-10U is a netbook that demands attention. Not content to be a standard black business appliance, the Toshiba NB520-10U wants to be the life and soul of the...

The Toshiba NB520 is a standard netbook on the inside, except for a superb pair of speakers. On the outside a lovely keyboard makes for good user ergonomics and the colour scheme simply looks attractive. In a sea full of similar products, Toshiba has...

It's a little depressing sometimes to think how little progress has been made at the low end of the netbook market. Atom has gone dual-core and can now just about handle 720P video, but the value of this is limited as you still get a sub-HD...

Starting at 329 Euros, the Toshiba NB520-108 brings a nearly all-round netbook package to the market. The performance is slightly improved over the single-core netbooks (N450/N455). Work now runs more smoothly at hand, although the adjective...

The Toshiba NB520 is priced at Rs. 21,490 which is just about right for its performance and features. The speakers sound great and the performance is a lot better thanks to the extra RAM and let’s not forget the sleep utility feature that helps...

Este miniportátil de Toshiba es un perfecto exponente de lo que debería ser un netbook para trabajar: contenido en precio, con una configuración suficiente para tareas ofimáticas, robusto y bien terminado, con mucha autonomía,...

Le Toshiba Mini NB520-10H est un petit netbook Intel sympathique. Son évolution, le NB520-10R (avec Atom N570), est déjà annoncée sur le site du constructeur et ne devrait pas tarder à arriver dans les rayons. Le prix ne devrait...

International Review By Betabuzz on 62

Ganz ehrlich: Das Toshiba NB520-108 ist ein Netbook wie jedes andere – eine etwas bessere Verarbeitung reicht in diesen Tagen nicht mehr aus, um sich aus der Masse wirklich abzuheben. So bleibt ein grundsolides Gerät für Reisende ohne...
