Toshiba has this week added a new addition to their range of Windows 8 tablets, in the form of the newly launched Toshiba WT310.
The Toshiba WT310 is fitted with a 11.6-inch Full HD screen and provides a number of ways to interact with Microsoft’s latest Windows 8 operating system.
Power and Performance
Toshiba has powered their new Toshiba WT310 tablet with an unspecified Intel Core processor, supported by a solid state disk (SSD) for storage and a DigitiserPen for note-taking and drawing when required. The inclusion of an Intel Core processor suggests that the WT310 is designed to handle more demanding applications and multitasking with ease, making it suitable for both business and personal use. The SSD storage not only provides faster data access speeds compared to traditional hard drives but also enhances the overall performance and reliability of the device.
Other features of the Toshiba WT310 Windows 8 tablet include Bluetooth 4.0 and optional HSPA+ / LTE connectivity, together with HDMI-out, an SD card slot, and a USB 3.0 port. These connectivity options ensure that users can easily connect to various peripherals and networks, making the WT310 a versatile device for different scenarios. Toshiba is also making a dock available for the Toshiba WT310 that will offer more port connectivity if required. This dock can be particularly useful for users who need to connect multiple devices simultaneously, such as external monitors, keyboards, and mice, transforming the tablet into a full-fledged workstation.
Design and Usability
The Toshiba WT310 tablet measures 229 x 189 x 12.4mm in size, making it a compact and portable device that can be easily carried around. The 11.6-inch Full HD screen offers a crisp and clear display, ideal for viewing documents, browsing the web, and watching videos. The screen’s touch capabilities, combined with the DigitiserPen, provide a seamless and intuitive user experience, allowing for precise input and control.
In terms of design, the WT310 features a sleek and modern look, with a durable build that can withstand daily wear and tear. The tablet’s lightweight design ensures that it can be comfortably held for extended periods, making it suitable for on-the-go use. The optional HSPA+ / LTE connectivity further enhances its portability, allowing users to stay connected to the internet even when they are away from Wi-Fi networks.
No details on CPU, RAM size, and SSD capacity have been announced as yet by Toshiba. However, it is expected that the company will provide more information on these specifications in the coming weeks. The anticipation surrounding the WT310’s launch indicates that it is poised to be a competitive addition to the Windows 8 tablet market.
The Toshiba WT310 is expected to be launched in the second quarter of 2013, and more details are expected to be released over the coming weeks. This launch timeline suggests that Toshiba is aiming to capture the interest of both business professionals and tech enthusiasts who are looking for a powerful and versatile tablet.
