Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: PC / Laptop

If you're looking for a 2-in-1 convertible notebook to add to your holiday wish list this season, be sure to consider the Toshiba Satellite Radius 12. Built and designed for Windows 10, the Toshiba Satellite Radius 12 can go from laptop mode over to tablet mode with a quick flip of the display. It sports an amazing 12.5-inch 4K UHD touchscreen, which is one of the best you'll see in this category. On the inside, you'll find an Intel Core i7 processor paired with 8GB RAM, and a blazing fast 256GB SSD.

Here's a full rundown of the product features in bullet-form:

• Flexible 2-in-1 design and fast mobile performance
• 4K Ultra HD display
• Intel’s new 6th generation Core processors
• Sleek, highly-mobile compact design
• Gorilla Glass damage resistant screen
• LED backlit keyboard
• 360-degree precision hinge
• Screen rotates into five unique viewing modes
• Designed for travel

Obviously, it ships with Windows 10, the latest desktop OS from Microsoft, which marries the best features of Windows 7 and Windows 8.  You get five viewing modes, which Toshiba defines as laptop, audience, tabletop, presentation, and tablet modes. That's all fantastic when paired up with the Ultra HD 4K display, which packs in a bunch of pixels to provide one of the clearest pictures you'll find on a laptop.

Facial recognition is built-in as well, which allows you to log in with Windows Hello. You get greeted by name, as the machine lights up to acknowledge your presence. Harmon Kardon speakers pump out the sound, and the latest USB 3.1 Type C connector is here as well, adding a touch of future-proofing to this pick. Of course, you still have the standard USB 3.0 ports, and HDMI out as well. You can pick up the Toshiba Satellite Radius 12 now at Best Buy for $1,149.99, a savings of $100, plus you get a $50 Windows Store digital gift card with purchase as well!
