Toshiba Launches 10-inch Screen Netbooks in Japan

Bookmark and Share

Toshiba embarks on more spacious 10-inch screens, with its refreshing line of netbooks. The UX-series netbooks are based on the N280 version of Intel's Atom chip and come with 1GB of memory and a 160GB hard disk drive.

The display of the new line up is a 10.1-inch LCD with 1,024x600 pixel resolution. It is to be mentioned that Toshiba's previous Atom-based machine, the NB100, sported a similar resolution but on an 8.9-inch LCD. Many netbook vendors have been switching to the larger displays as consumers prefer them.

The Battery life of the new range has also been extended to about 4 hours, compared with 2.9 hours for the NB100.

But the interesting fact is that despite its larger screen the new model is smaller, at 26.3 centimeters by 19.2cm by 3.1cm. The computer weighs between 1.2 kilograms and 1.3kg depending on the configuration.

The UX-series computers will be launched in Japan and then in the other markets. However, Toshiba has not declared any precise international launch dates.
