Disabling the software made the machine more pleasant to use though, especially because Clickfree is installed by default and every time a USB storage device is detected, it asks you if you want to use it as a backup drive. (Neither did updating the graphics adapter's drivers). We disabled all that software to see if it would make a difference to the benchmark times - it didn't. There is a lot of background software installed on the Satellite P50t, which is the usual thing that Toshiba does to its laptops - it even comes with Intel's AppUp installed, which we're not sure if anyone uses (we used it once back when netbooks were still a thing). The Handbrake test also showed signs of a sluggish configuration, taking 13min 45sec to turn a DVD file into an MP4, whereas the HP took 8min 52sec.
The iTunes time is only one second off what we expected, but the Blender time is 5sec off when compared to the other Core i7-4700QM machine we've seen, HP's Envy 17.
In the Blender 3D rendering and iTunes MP3 encoding tests, the P50t obtained times of 25sec and 43sec, respectively. In our performance tests, though, the P50t didn't put up the results we expected. It's joined by 16GB of DDR3 SDRAM, an NVIDIA GeForce GT 745M graphics adapter, and a 1TB hybrid hard drive, which has a solid state cache built in to speed up the booting of the operating system and regularly-used applications. It comes with a fourth-generation Intel Core i7-4700MQ quad-core CPU, which supplies eight threads of processing and a 2.4GHz standard speed. We found the overall performance of the Satellite P50t to be responsive during everyday usage, and it should be considering what's inside. It gets a little loud when the fan is doing lots of work, but that's to be expected. The right side has HDMI, two USB 2.0 ports, the audio ports, the VGA port, and the air vent. The SD card slot is located on the right. The left side has the power port, Gigabit Ethernet, two USB 3.0 ports, and the Blu-ray burner. You'll have to enlarge pages manually in Chrome if you want to make them easier to view and friendlier to touch. It also makes content in Firefox appear bigger by default, but Chrome content isn't affected. We first saw this utility on the Toshiba KIRA, which has a much higher screen resolution of 2560x1440, and it can definitely come in handy when you want to poke around File Explorer windows, for example.

Using touch on a screen with a 1920x1080 resolution can be difficult due to how small icons and other items look, but Toshiba supplies Display Utility, which is part of its Desktop Assist suite, and can make screen text on the Windows Desktop look bigger. But it's nice to have it as an option, and we've grown quite used to prodding and swiping screens for some tasks, rather than using the touchpad (we select music with our fingers when using Google Play Music, for example). It can be tiring to use the touchscreen for lengthy periods of time, not to mention uncomfortable. However, on a 15.6in chassis with a lid that can't be tilted all the way back and a form factor that can't be used as a tablet, the benefits of the touchscreen aren't many. The touchscreen supports 10 simultaneous finger inputs and can come in handy when you want to poke around the Windows Start screen.

What you also get is a Full HD screen resolution with a touchscreen capability.
Add to that Bluetooth, dual-band Wi-Fi, and a webcam, and you have a laptop that's primed for just about any computing tasks that need to be carried out in the home. Not only do you get four USB ports (two of them being USB 3.0), you also get HDMI, Gigabit Ethernet, VGA, separate microphone and headphone ports, an SD card slot, and a Blu-ray drive. It's fully featured as far as Windows laptops are concerned. The P50t is a 15.6in notebook that weighs 2.4kg, and it feels well built for the most part.
