The brothers have been waiting for a long time and have started to write about my "new love". Why do I want to change my book? Because I want to take my family to take the MSC Glory cruise ship in March, I don't dare to break the update, and I plan to build a large memory machine to hang the accounts corresponding to the seven browsers in the background, so I won't shut it down. Originally, I spent 1550 yuan to buy a VK23TG with 16G onboard memory, but later I found out that my new love was "empathetic and don't fall in love", because of higher performance and lower price.
Let's not talk nonsense, go straight to the topic, my new love is Toshiba X40-E, the configuration is the eighth generation i5 + 8G memory + 512G solid-state, the merchant price is 1100 SF Express does not pay a counteroffer, if it is reduced to 256G solid-state is 1000 yuan. But complaining, the postage cost 32 yuan, and there is still a 6 yuan box fee, and the merchant himself does not prepare the box?
The Toshiba X40-E body weighs 1.19kg, which is heavy for people who have played 800 grams, but considering the 14-inch screen, it can also be understood, which is slightly more than 100 grams heavier than the LG Gram (14z980c) of the same generation. Then again, I don't remember any 14-inch notebook that can do less than 1KG, please advise if there is.
Toshiba X40-E is the most attractive to me is the 14-inch 1080p touch screen,People who have used NEC know that the touch screen can replace the mouse for office is too convenient,It belongs to"I can't go back if I use it"。 Last year, I took my family to Suzhou, Yunnan and other places to travel, and I just clicked on the screen a few times on the temporary release, which was very convenient, and the trackpad and pointing stick could not be compared.
In addition to the touch screen, the Toshiba X40-E actually has an English keyboard version, which no longer has to endure the short space bar of the Japanese keyboard, and it also comes with a backlight and a pointing stick. This kind of English keyboard machine should be from Europe and the United States, and the quantity is not much, and it may not be available in ordinary times.
The whole machine is in good condition, conservative 9 into new or more, without obvious big scratches and bumps. The bottom shell is a whole piece of metal, pay attention to changing the memory, there is a screw under the round foot pad in the middle of the bottom shell, and you need to cut off the foot pad. Knock off the bottom shell and look at the motherboard, the inside is clean, the battery capacity is 4080mAh, the fan is dust-free, and it comes with DDR4 dual memory slots.
This is the current configuration, I have added a root 16G memory, and it is currently i5-8250U+24G+512G solid-state, and the battery health is more than 90%. Compared with the NEC of onboard memory, it is still a machine that can change the memory, and I bought a second 16G hynix memory module, a single 120 free shipping, two are only 240 yuan, and the 8G memory module that comes with it can also be sold for 80 yuan back to blood.
This battery system shows that it can be used for more than 3 hours,I measured it that night,The highest brightness of the screen + silent playback 1920x800The TV series with resolution insisted on 3 hours and 10 minutes of shutdown,You can use it as a reference。 To be commended, the fan of this book is so muted that I only heard the sound of turning when I put it close to my ear.
Toshiba X40-E also has an advantage, that is, the right side uses dual USB-C interfaces, it is said to support mobile phones 45W or more fast charging, I use 90W Xiaomi charger can be charged, plug in and turn on to show the charging time of three hours (residual power 17%). This saves a charger when you go out, but both USB-Cs are on the right and there is only one USB 3.0 port on the left.
As for the performance of the eighth generation i5, I used the 4K high bitrate "Avatar" to test smooth playback, and the average CPU load rate is only 10% (the memory in the picture above shows 16G, because I dismantled the original 8G and sold it, and there is still a 16G on the way). By the way, the eighth generation of Core has been upgraded from the seventh-generation dual-core four-thread to the four-core and eight-thread, which belongs to the generation of "toothpaste crowding", the performance is about 40% higher, i5-8250U is stronger than i7-7500U10%-20%, and the eighth-generation core is definitely better for office.
Finally, let's take a family photo,ToshibaX40-E The maximum brightness of the screen is only about 80% of NEC vk23tg,After all, people can reverse the screen as a tablet,The comprehensive quality of the screen is stronger than that of Toshiba,And the bezel is narrower。

In addition, the Toshiba X40 series is also available in versions with suffixes such as D, F, G, etc., differing in the screen (whether it can be touched or not), the processor, and the Japanese/English keyboard. If you don't want the touch screen X40, the same configuration is quoted at 950 yuan. And the strongest performance should beX40-G,I've seen i7-10610U+1080p touch screen version,8G+256G configuration is quoted at 1750 yuan。
But after sending this article,I took a fancy to the "new new love" (spoilers in advance:13.3 inches、More than 800 grams、Eight generations i5、1099 yuan),I just sent it and haven't received it.,I'll write it in a few days (if you don't send it, it's overturned)。 Hey, the garbage guy is the one who makes the choice, and the old wants it all.
