On the bright side, the Toshiba Satellite L735-S3220RD is an entry level notebook with good performance thanks to the Intel Core i5-2410M dual-core processor and enough memory. It also has a fashionable design that's light enough to travel with. On the other hand, the notebook was only able to provide about three and a half hours of battery life and has an all-plastic, somewhat flimsy construction.Build and DesignLike most of the entry level notebooks in the Toshiba Satellite series, the new 13.3-inch Satellite L735-S3220RD is made almost entirely out of molded plastics and has the familiar rounded clamshell construction on the display lid and around the chassis. This notebook sports a red and black dot matrix design with a glossy Toshiba Fusion finish. The glossy finish embodies the display cover, screen surround, keyboard, and palmrests. To add a touch of style, the area just below the LCD has a bumpy textured feel to it along with the dot matix design. The overall dimensions are 12.95” x 8.7” x 1.10”~1.45”, and it weighs 4.6 pounds without the battery.
If you're looking for an all-purpose laptop that's relatively easy to fit in your backpack or satchel, Toshiba's $779 (as of September 24, 2011) L735-S3220RD is well worth considering. It's lighter and smaller than a typical all-purpose notebook, yet the unit doesn't feel puny in size, screen dimensions, or power. On the other hand, its battery life is poor (3 hours, 10 minutes), and its input ergonomics are only so-so. Though the unit may seem a bit pricey, too, the Blu-ray drive and its accompanying software are partly responsible for that. Because of the stickers plastered all over the keyboard deck, the L735-S3220RD's looks don't impress out of the box. But after you remove them, this red-and-black laptop's appearance grades out as above average. Designed around a 13.3-inch, 1366-by-768-pixel display and weighing 4.3 pounds, the L735-S3220RD is significantly smaller and lighter than garden-variety 14- to 15-inch all-purpose laptops and will appeal to users seeking something a little lighter. If it were half an inch thinner and half a pound lighter, it would qualify as an ultraportable. Some of savings in weight, however, are due to a rather small 48 watt-hour battery, which is partly responsible for the short run-time.
