CNET Review
The Good: Wide screen; sharp display resolution; tablet functionality.
The Bad: Too heavy for regular mobile use; screen wobbles easily; small touch pad; mediocre performance.
The Bottom Line: The bulky Satellite R25 offers a beautiful display and plenty of features at a low price, but if you don't need the tablet functionality, there are better wide-screen notebooks on the market.
