Today we thought we'd check out the Satellite U940, a 14-inch ultrabook by Toshiba that's selling for £500 to £650, depending on the model. Toshiba decided to stick to the...

The Toshiba Satellite U940 has low heat, it's quiet and has a good processor... but the screen and battery life (kind of a key thing in a laptop) are complete flops. Two stars...

The slim Toshiba Satellite U940-11N Ultrabook is lightweight, inoffensive to look at and easy to fit into even a fairly small bag, as it measures just 21x340x239mm. Helping to keep the size and weight down is the absence of a disc drive, which has beco...

What is the Toshiba Satellite U940? With all of the uncertainty and upheaval that Windows 8 has brought to the PC industry, it's good to see capable traditionally styled Ultrabooks, like the Toshiba Satellite U940, hitting the market with an enticing mix...

The Toshiba Satellite U940 is a middle of the road laptop, but more importantly it's a decent entry-level Ultrabook. It's reasonably mobile, but offers decent performance thanks to a capable i5 (or an i3, if you want to cut costs further) processor and an...

When I first had hands-on with the Toshiba U940 I was a little worried that it might be built too cheaply. The casing and styling weren't exactly top-of-the-range but it turns out that Toshiba have put together quite an honest package here. Don't judge an...

I thought we'd be getting a Toshiba U920T Slider Touchscreen Windows 8 Ultrabook through the post this week but I was wrong. It wasn't until the video unboxing that I found out it was actually the ‘budget' Toshiba Satellite U940 (U945 in the USA.) I've le...

Not everyone can afford the technological marvels of the thinnest and lightest Ultrabooks, and your company finance director may not consider one of the flagship models a worthy expenditure. Fortunately, the concept has filtered down to the more budget-or...

The Toshiba Satellite U940-10M doesn't have the “bling” appeal of a premium Ultrabook, and it's also a little heavier and more portly. But otherwise it doesn't skimp on performance or features for a machine in its class. It's not quite a budget bargain...

Toshiba has been making some pretty slick ultrabooks since the format was introduced a year and a half back. They also like to dabble in some unorthodox designs, their recent ultra-widescreen Satellite U840W ultrabook being a good example. Today, though...
