About this deal

The upside of this laptop's size is that there's room for a number pad to the right of the keyboard. Unlike that on the Asus ZenBook Flip 15 UX563FD that I looked at recently, which also has a 15.6-inch screen, the number pad has full-size keys. This has been achieved by pushing the whole keyboard section further out towards the short edges of the chassis than is the case on the ZenBook. The 15.6-inch Dynabook Satellite Pro L50-G has an up-to-date spec, including 10th-generation Core processors and Wi-Fi 6, although SSD storage doesn't go above 256GB on the preconfigured models.

The Satellite Pro L50-G's 15.6-inch chassis provides plenty of room for ports and slots. The RJ-45 Ethernet port is a flip-down design. You can add an optional SmartCard reader too. Images: Dynabook In terms of equipment, there are only the bare essentials in terms of memory, SSD and ports. You should not expect too much in terms of the display either, but at least an IPS display is used that offers decent picture quality and is suitable for normal office applications. The new AMD processor is efficient, which is why reasonable runtimes (7-9 hours) are possible even with the comparatively small battery.All in all, the Satellite Pro is a somewhat old-fashioned office notebook that has no highlights in any area and cannot stand out from the competition. a b c McDonough, Meghan (June 3, 2012).

The Dynabook Satellite Pro C50D is an inexpensive office laptop with a 15.6-inch display. The CPU performance could be increased by switching to the AMD processor, but it is basically still the familiar office notebook that we already tested two years ago. Lee, Yvonne (May 24, 1993).

The Globe and Mail– via ProQuest. Build quality is only average. One of my perennial issues with Dynabook's laptops is the amount of flex in the lid. I was unhappy with this with both the Portégé A30-E and Portégé X30-F at the end of last year, for example. Dynabook has inherited this issue from Toshiba, and it really could do with fixing. In the meantime, I suggest you invest in a protective sleeve.

The bottom cover is secured with normal cross screws and the maintenance options are overall decent, because there are also two regular SODIMM slots next to the M.2-2280 SSD, which makes it very easy to upgrade the working memory. However, the WLAN module cannot be replaced. verifyErrors }}{{ message }}{{ /verifyErrors }}{{ The specifications have been designed to be cost-effective, and all of the preconfigured versions of this laptop at the time of writing have just 256GB of SSD storage. All models bar one run Windows 10 Pro and have Wi-Fi 6. Beware as you look for savings as RAM slips down to 4GB and there's even a Core i3 processor among the various 10th-generation Intel options.Never miss a moment with the Satellite Pro C40. The device's Windows Hello-ready HD Webcam, stereo speakers and Cortana-enabled microphone make staying in touch with customers, colleagues and peers effortless. Need to connect a headset? Simply pair via Bluetooth or plug in through the mic/headphone combination slot. Quinlan, Tom (August 31, 1992). "Toshiba introduces color screen in low-cost notebook". InfoWorld.
