Panasonic Toughbook F8 - A Review of the Panasonic Toughbook F8 Notebook


01/08/2009

laptopmag.com

Pros: Surprisingly light, Good performance, Excellent battery life, Available 3G wireless broadband, Quiet operation

Cons: Expensive, No webcam, fingerprint reader, FireWire, or multimedia keys, Cramped Shift and Enter keys, Disappointing built-in speakers, Polarizing design touches

Verdict: Panasonic included just the basic ports: three USB, headphone, mic, VGA, Ethernet, modem, and a mini port replicator connector. You won't find FireWire, HDMI, or eSATA here, nor did our configuration have a webcam or fingerprint reader-two essential ...

The business-rugged Toughbook F8 delivers more power, outstanding battery life, a 14.1-inch screen, and an onboard optical drive in a 3.7-pound package. But it will cost you.
