I got this laptop a few days ago and I must say I am very impressed with it.

The i5 450 is fast, not as fast as my other laptop the fast none the less.

The Nvidia Geforce GTS 360m is great for most all modern games and doesn’t have any problems holding up. (So far I tried this comp with Starcraft 2 and Mass Effect 2 and they both work great)

The Screen is nice and large, a bit bigger then I had in mind but 18.4 is fricken huge and a lot of real estate especially if you are into strategy games.

All in all very happy with purchase.

I shopped everywhere online and looked at every laptop there is. My budget was $1200. The Qosmio was recently dropped to $999, and when that happened, I decided to jump on it. I bought the SquareTrade 3-year warranty, and with tax, total was about $1230. For that price, you will NOT find a laptop with a 3 year warranty that has the hardware the Qosmio does. I recieved mine on Tuesday, August 24th, which was the promised delivery date. I paid an extra $2 and got 2-day shipping, and was very pleased with the speedy delivery. I am a gamer and I bought the Qosmio with the intention of using it for gaming. So far I have loaded Crysis and Starcraft 2 on it. Crysis performed very well, not spectacular, but very well. All settings on High, running at a consistent minimum of 25 fps, which in Crysis is smooth enough for solid gameplay. Starcraft 2 I maxed all the settings out on Ultra, and my fps is holding at least 40. Very solid gaming machine this is. My biggest complaint so far is the surface is incredibly smudgy. Any part of the laptop you touch, you will leave behind a fingerprint and residue. But, that's easily wiped off. The laptop looks great, the media control touch-buttons can be easily disabled, the speakers sound awesome, and I really love the huge 18.4" screen. The webcam is very, very clear and nice. The entire computer does seem a little on the fragile side, as the screen portion is very easily bendable, so take a little extra caution when moving or carrying the laptop. Lots of great connectivity, 4 USB's + HDMI, a nice touchpad. So far this laptop was DEFINATELY worth $999. I am very, very satisfied with my purchase. I would recommend this laptop to anyone looking for a nice, large laptop to use for gaming. The lowest-end model Q885 still runs the i5 processor, and it is handling 2 top-notch games for me so far with superb performance. So far, so great.

I was really looking forward to it and it didn't disappoint! I've owned several Toshiba products and they have all have been attractive, durable and give excellent performance. I can't believe how fast this laptop is and the bigger screen is wonderful! This machine will replace my older desktop and I feel really good about my purchase. Plus it's not nearly as heavy as I anticipated; it's genuinely portable if the need arises. And Amazon continues to be my favorite place to buy high end electronics for less! I've happily used them for several years now. Review by Sherry L. Slavik for Toshiba Qosmio X505-Q885 TruBrite 18.4-Inch Laptop (Black/Red)

He mostly uses it for internet but is impressed with his first Mac. The DVD drive was a bonus as I did not realize it had one when I ordered it. The only down fall is that the battery does not hold much charge (only about an hour) but you can always buy a better one. It's great and for a very reasonable prize.

I need graphic power to run my Adobe Creative apps efficiently. This machine delivers. It is much faster than my desktop which is a Core2 Quad running at 2.83 GHz. It is also extremely pleasing to the eyes without looking too much like an Alienware gaming machine. I personally like the gaming look but needed a machine that delivered gaming performance while still looking professional in front of my customers. It is a bit heavy. It would be a load on long trips where a lot of walking is required. If that is the case for you, I would suggest a pull-behind solution when looking at cases. Had some trouble finding a case that it would fit in. This is an over-sized, 18-inch laptop. Most of the large bags are for a 17 inch. You may need to special order a bag. I took my Qosmio into staples and found a bag that was actually spec'd for a 17-inch, but was able to make it work. It wouldn't fit in most 17-inch bags. I was disappointed when I realized that the keyboard doesn't light up on this model. It also does not have bluetooth. Pay attention to the specs if you want these options. You'll need to upgrade and pay a little more for them. I should have been more observant. I was looking too closely at the other performance specs and while comparing, I took it for granted that these features were standard. They are not. Overall, still a very nice machine. Boots up fast and runs great! I'm pleased. Also, for a very small shipping upgrade, I received this the next day from Amazon! Loved that!
