14 DAY TRIAL // Toshiba's Portege Z830 is definitely one of the nicest Ultrabooks that are available now, and Best Buy will carry a special version of this ultra-thin, dubbed the Z835, which was specially built to come at an attractive $899 (€660) price point.
In order to get the price down, this version of the Toshiba Ultrabook is powered by an 1.4GHz Intel Core i3 processor seconded by 4GB of system memory and packing an 128GB SSD.
Toshiba will also be selling higher power variants of the Z830, reports The Verge, which includes a Core i5 model for $1,199 (880 EUR) and a Core i7 model for $1,429 (1,049 EUR).
Furthermore, users can also configure the Portege Ultrabook according to their own specifications on the company's website.
No matter the configuration one goes for, the rest of the specifications list includes Wi-Fi, Bluetooth and Gigabit LAN connectivity, HDMI, VGA and mini-DP video outputs, a 1.3MP webcam and a single USB 3.0 port. The 13.3-inch display has a native resolution of 1366x768 pixels.
The good news is that Toshiba also included support for Intel's Wireless Display technology in the Portege Ultrabook, while the keyboard is illuminated for making typing in the dark a lot easier.
All of these are housed inside an elegant case measuring a mere 15.9mm (0.6 inches) in thickness, which is constructed from magnesium alloy and aluminum.
Even more surprising is that Toshiba managed to achieve such a low profile without giving up on using a removable battery, so users can freely swap the 6-cell power pack when it isn't able to come anywhere near (due to prolonged ware) the 8 hours of autonomy claimed by the company.
Best Buy hasn't yet listed the Z835 on its website, so we don't have a definite availability date for the Toshiba ultra-thin.
