The Digital Products Division of Toshiba has just revealed the world’s first 12.5-inch convertible laptop featuring 4K Ultra HD. The product in question is named Satellite Radius 12 and was designed to offer an irreproachable user experience. It was built using high-quality materials and was equipped with state-of-the-art hardware, including Intel’s 6th Gen Core processors, a top-of-the-line screen and premium speakers.
The senior director of product marketing over at Toshiba America Information Systems, Inc., Digital Products Division stated the following:
“Through our deep relationships with our partners at Microsoft, Intel and Technicolor we have designed a top-of-line compact PC that delivers the new gold standard in screen, sound and performance for an unmatched computing experience on Windows 10. The Satellite Radius 12 expertly blends the latest technology into an extremely powerful, yet compact and easy-to-carry PC that is not only versatile, but durable enough to handle a highly mobile lifestyle.”
Speaking of Windows 10, the Satellite Radius 12 is one of the very first laptops to boast facial authentication using Windows Hello, a feature powered by an onboard infrared camera. As you might suspect, Windows Hello, allows users to log into the laptop easily using their face.
When it comes to the display, this new Toshiba product can be equipped with a superb 12.5-inch IPS touchscreen that flaunts native 4K Ultra HD resolution. The wide gamut RGB display is 100% compatible with Adobe RGB color space reproduction, which is always a nice addition for mobile content makers. The display is protected by Gorilla Glass NBT, which provides improved shock and scratch resistance when compared to regular glass solutions.
As far as power and performance are concerned, Intel’s new 6th Gen Core processors ensure outstanding power efficiency without sacrificing computing power. This results in a longer battery life and more power for daily tasks such as video streaming. The Satellite Radius 12 has a durable aluminium case and weighs just 2.9 pounds. Its 0.6-inch profile also deserves a mention, as does its 360-degree precision hinge that allows it to shift between five viewing modes named Laptop, Tablet, Tabletop, Presentation and Audience.
The Satellite Radius 12 by Toshiba is expected to become available in the US starting this year’s fourth quarter.
