TypeConsumer laptop

The Satellite S series was Toshiba Information Systems' midrange line of Satellite laptops. [1] It was introduced in 2012, positioned above their mainstream L series but below the premium P range. [2] Features included Nvidia GeForce graphics processing units, Harman Kardon speakers, optional touchscreen displays, and optional backlit keyboards; it was the lowest-priced entry of the Satellite family to offer discrete graphics. Displays ranged from 14 to 17.3-inches diagonally in size, with only displays 15.6-inches diagonally or larger affording the option for full 1080p resolution initially—14-in panels were limited to 1366 × 768. [3] [4] The series was refreshed in 2015 to add a 4K panel option and raise the minimum screen size to 15.6-inches diagonally. [5] The first models of the S series included an optical drive bay, with an option for a Blu-ray drive. [4] The bay was removed in a 2014 refresh to make the laptop slimmer but restored in the 2015 refresh. [5] [6]

On its introduction, technology journalists wrote that the S series almost reached ultrabook status in terms of performance and features but fell short due to its heft. [1] [4] The first entries weighed a little over 5 pounds (2.3 kg); later entries reached the under-5-lb mark. [5]

Toshiba discontinued the S series in 2016 along with the entire Satellite line of laptops. [7]
