Description
The Toshiba Satellite C55-A5310 is one of the most popular laptop models on the market, because it’s a part of Best Buy’s well promoted laptop bundle. For $520, shoppers can get the C55-A5310, Office Home & Student 2013 software suite, Titanium Internet Security 2014 3-user 6-month subscription, a Targus sleeve, Logitech M185 wireless optical mouse, and 8GB flash drive. The notebook itself is a classic 15.6-incher. It’s based on an 3rd Generation (2012) Intel Core i3 processor, so it’s not as power efficient as the latest 4th Gen parts, but it’s certainly a good CPU for routine web and office tasks and multimedia playback. Toshiba hasn’t economized on RAM and storage space, since they’ve included 6GB and 750GB respectively, up from usual 4GB and 500GB. When you add a built-in DVD burner and a full array of networking and connectivity options to the mix, it’s clear the laptop and bundle are a great shopping deal. The screen resolution is low 1366×768 and the chassis has a very simple and somewhat boring design, but these are unwritten standards for the budget laptop category.

This laptop is a good deal. You can opt out of the trials. Battery lasts me 7.5 hours, even though Toshiba rates it at 4.5. Ram goes to 16 gb, is very upgradeable. Solidly built.
Built to fail. Every PC laptop I have ever owned has had hinge failure. Not that the hinges themselves would fail but the plastic glue and metal pulled away from the each other. The hinges are solid the chassis plastic isn’t built to the handle the heat and stress of opening and closing the lid 10-15 times per day every day. At best these last a couple years and fail (none of the warranties will cover it).
My toshiba satellite C55-A5310. Windows 8. It powers on. It charges while being plugged in. The screen won’t light up to see anything.
The c55-A5310 Toshiba laptop. I upgraded the RAM to maximum, I upgraded the hd to maximum, very nice machine. Unfortunately, the hinges began pulling away from the plastic and failing after the first year. I took it to the Geek Squad who informed me the hinges were fine, the issue is the corners of the back cover chassis are weak and doesn’t properly support the wear and tear. Apparently the screws and nuts on laptops routinely pull away from the chassis. I was told I could order and new chassis for the rear case ($250 with labor) or attempt my own DIY repair. Toshiba and other laptop mfg (exception are the laptops with metal cases) know it is a problem because they all have the same weak point in the structural design. The hinges are metal but the plastic isn’t thick enough to handle repeated open and closings several times per day… Everything else about it works great.
