Good performance from Intel's Bay Trail SoC. Surprisingly great camera for a tablet. Windows 8.1 has a strong feature set
Chubby, uninspiring design. Disappointing display resolution. The Windows desktop is tricky to use on a small screen.
Toshiba's first foray into the world of 8-inch Windows 8.1 tablets isn't the fantastic product the company was hoping for. The drab, chubby design is particularly uninspired, failing to make an impression up against slimmer and more portable competition...
Solid performance from fourthgeneration Atom processor. Has 32GB of internal storage. Clear, responsive touch display. Decent battery life.
Limited port selection
The Toshiba Encore, the company's first 8-inch Windows tablet, looks pretty good with solid performance, decent battery life, and an affordable price....
Lots of ports onboard for an 8-inch tablet, Long battery life, Built-in GPS, Includes license for Microsoft Office Home & Student
Thicker and heavier than competing 8-inch tablets, Display color looks flat, Screen not as bright as some on competing tabs
If battery life matters most to you, the Encore is a decent choice among 8-inch Windows tablets, but its weight and physical design make it feel like an older model. ...

Full Windows 8, All-day battery life, Good connectivity
Plasticky design, Screen should be brighter, Rival tablets better for business
Toshiba's Encore tablet might not be a looker, with a cheap-feeling plastic build, but it's an affordable way to enjoy full Windows on a tablet. You can download and install any PC software, and enjoy it over ridiculously long journeys thanks to the excel...
Abstract: The Encore isn't a sleek and sexy budget tablet. It's chunkier and does less to hide its all-plastic heritage than the competition. It's also a few ounces heaver. Toshiba and stylish aren't two words we often get to put in the same sentence. That said, it...
Overall the Toshiba Encore WT8, and this could apply to all Windows 8.1 8-inch tablets, doesn't quite feel like a polished consumer tablet. It's a little too big and there are avenues of usage that can lead to problems unless the user has experience with...
