Toshiba
UK
today pushes the boundaries of laptop design with the Satellite U840W – an innovative
and highly portable Ultrabook™ designed for cinema enthusiasts. The world’s
first laptop to feature a cinematic 21:9 screen ratio, the Satellite U840W’s lightweight
chassis, all-day battery life, audio features and wireless streaming
capabilities combine to make a stylish laptop that delivers the ultimate cinema
experience on the move.
Ultrawide, Ultrafast, Ultrabook
By
matching the anamorphic image format used in many widescreen films, the Satellite
U840W displays movies without any black bars above and below the picture. The
only laptop to make full use of the entire screen real estate when playing
widescreen 21:9 movies, the Satellite U840W guarantees an unrivalled and immersive
experience.
The
Satellite U840W’s unique screen also makes viewing multiple windows
side-by-side possible without the need to overlap, allowing documents, web
pages or images to be on-screen at once. Toshiba’s Split Screen Utility lets
users view content in the standard 16:9 screen ratio, leaving space for an
additional 5:9 window. The super-wide 1792 x 768 screen resolution ensures high
definition video content in any aspect ratio looks sharp and full of detail, and
LED backlighting helps to boost contrast and colour saturation for a more
pleasing image.
High-quality stereo speakers
designed by audio specialist harman/kardon™ combine with
SRS Premium Sound 3DTM audio
enhancement to ensure movies, music and games all sound exceptional, delivering
a rich, clear and distortion-free soundscape to match the cinematic visuals.
Premium design, Hollywood looks
At
only 20.8mm thin and weighing just 1.814kg, the 36.6cm (14.4”) Satellite U840W
is an ideal travel companion. Constructed with a premium brushed metal finish that
is both striking and robust, a woven pattern adds additional grip on the
chassis, while metal speaker grilles and display hinges complete the Satellite
U840W’s elegant feel.
A large gesture control touchpad
lets users intuitively swipe, pinch, zoom and scroll through documents, while
integrated buttons maintain its clean, minimalist appearance. The matte-black
tiled keyboard complements the overall look, aided by a backlight that illuminates
each key for typing in low light conditions.
Designed
to connect, ready to perform
With Intel® Wireless
Display support, the Satellite U840W makes it easy to stream media saved on the
laptop through any compatible device using a home network – letting users enjoy
digital photo albums, videos or music from the comfort of the living room. HDMI®
also allows high definition content to be easily viewed on any HD TV, perfect
for enjoying films on a bigger screen in the company of family and friends. Three
full-sized USB 3.0 ports allow file transfer up to ten times faster than with
USB 2.0 – perfect for quickly moving large video files between devices.
Featuring
a 3rd generation Intel® Core™ processor for Ultrabook™, the
Satellite U840W is powerful enough to playback HD video smoothly, as well as run
multiple tasks at once. A 32GB solid state drive (SSD) guarantees faster boot
up times, longer battery life and an overall improved performance, while an
additional 500GB hard disk drive (HDD) is spacious enough to store a library of
HD video files directly on the laptop.
