The fantastic design of Toshiba Qosmio PX30t

The computers all in one pose a very interesting solution to the annoying clutter of cables and the dust that accumulates when we use traditional desktops. The portable format allows its use in almost any desk, and the inclusion of wireless accessories allows even just have to use the power cord to work. Within this segment, one of the most interesting betting Toshiba is the model Qosmio PX30t, all in one team with a 23-inch touchscreen, the latest generation processors from Intel Core and a speaker system resulting in a sound high quality. In addition, it also includes a Freeview tuner to watch TV from our bedroom and advanced features such as gesture recognition to handle Windows 8. However, to us with this complete team will have to shell out the not inconsiderable amount of 1,500 euros.

If something you have to start to talk in this kind of equipment is by design. The first impression created by the Toshiba Qosmio PX30t is that this is a premium model. Its design has elegant lines that combine black frame with silver in a lower stripe and rear panel. This same material extends to the base, which has a rectangular form with rounded corners. The design of this stand is quite compact, so easy to install the Qosmio on any desk without losing stability. In particular, the dimensions of the equipment are placed in 55.2 x 39.1 x 17 inches and weighs 8.8 kilos.

In the field of the screen, a built LED panel with a size of 23 inch full HD resolution of 1,920 x 1,080 pixels. Though it might seem at first for its 200 nits of brightness, the fact is that this Screen casts fairly bright images and generally achieves a good performance with its response time 8 milliseconds. Toshiba also wanted to squeeze system capabilities Windows 8 including touch capability (up to ten pressure points). As always, a matter of taste and habit, but should not finish seeing the utility of both a touch screen size, since they end up using almost exclusively the mouse. Yes that seems more useful this functionality in compact size equipment (such as an ultrabook) or even some hybrid bets as the Sony Vaio Tab 20 (an all in one that turns into a tablet of 20 inches).

Another thing different is the tool gesture recognition that comes with the Qosmio PX30t. Through the webcam, the computer is able to perform different actions within the interface of Windows 8 through hand movements. To accomplish this, you must be at a minimum distance of between thirty inches and a maximum of two feet, usually the posture in which we will be when we use the computer on the desk. The level of refinement of this system is not very high, so that “click” on a certain part of the screen can be a bit heavy.

But this operation will bring other advantages that you would like a lot. For example, a simple arm gesture you will move between different open applications. This movement is fast and very comfortable. Do the same gesture to move the arm across open settings window and search for the right front panel. The last of the functions that you will find it very useful and easy to use is to drag an area on the screen. Definitely a very interesting added to carry out some of the most typical of Windows 8 without touching the screen or keyboard. With four speakers designed by Harman Kardon (each with an output of 5W), you get an experience of high quality surround sound with which you enjoy the most of films and games. No doubt, this is one of the highlights of this computer Toshiba.

The Toshiba QosmioPX30t uses a processor Intel Core i7 quad-core-4700MQ with a power of 2.4 GHz. Thanks to Turbo Boost 2.0 technology; we can increase power up to 3.4 GHz in the times when we need more power. This chip is attached to a memory of 8 GB RAM will allow us to run numerous applications at the same time and deal with complex processes. For multimedia use PX30t Qosmio also introduced a graphics card NVIDIA GeForce GT 740M with 2GB of dedicated, providing acceptable performance in most modern games. Without doubt, this is a feature that encourages the use of this computer all in one.

As for the internal memory, the Toshiba Qosmio PX30t includes a traditional hard drive with a capacity of 3 TB and a speed of 7200 revolutions per minute. Thanks to this, we can store a lot of files and applications on our computer. Yes, it is very noticeable difference in speed compared to the SSD memory, especially when the system boots.
