Toshiba’s growing family of ultrabooks now includes the Satellite U840W, the first ultrabook to feature an ultrawide 21:9 Cinematic display, and the Satellite U840, the affordable everyday ultrabook.
Both ultrabooks offer a balanced blend of style, entertainment, productivity and portability powered by the latest 3rd generation of Intel Core TM processors.
The Satellite U840 and the Satellite U840W will be available in the third quarter of 2012 in South and South East Asia.
Satellite U840W: The World’s First Ultrabook with an Ultra-Wide 21:9 Cinematic Display
Designed with movie enthusiasts and productivity power users in mind, the Satellite U840W is the first Ultrabook of its kind to feature a 14.4-inch diagonal Ultra-Wide HD Clear SuperView display with a cinematic 21:9 aspect ratio.
This particular display is ideally suited for movie buffs looking to enjoy 2.35:1 movies in their original format but without the black bars commonly seen on most notebook displays.
The distinctive display is also ideal for multitasking, providing more space for better split-screen viewing of word-processing applications, streaming videos, social networking, browsing and instant messaging.
The Satellite U840W also allows users to utilize the extra display space with the Toshiba Split-Screen Utility that offers pre-configured and custom viewpoint grids to support multiple windows on the display.
The Satellite U840W’s high-grade picture quality is complemented with the natural sound delivered through stereo speakers from Harman Kardon and SRS Premium Sound 3D audio enhancement.
The Satellite U840W is constructed out of machined aluminum and features a luxurious soft-touch trim. Delivering a sophisticated styling and comfort in a lightweight package, the Satellite U840 measures less than an inch thick. It features a LED backlit raised tiled keyboard and ClickPad.
