New Dynabook Portégés Deliver 12th Gen Intel vPro Processors

Dynabook—formerly the Toshiba PC Company—today announced three new Portégé portable PCs based on the 28-watt 12th Gen Intel Core P-Series processors. They are the Portégé X30L, Portégé X30W, and the all-new 14-inch Portégé X40L.

“The all-new Intel Evo based Portégé X40L-K is truly a masterpiece every way you look at it and serves as an impressive demonstration of Dynabook’s nearly four decades of experience in engineering premium laptops for mobile professionals,” Dynabook general manager James Robbins said. “It’s compact, powerful, durable, uniquely stylish, and secure. While all impressive, none of these qualities sum up the magic of this laptop. You must hold it to truly appreciate the incredible engineering and craftsmanship that went into making it the lightest and highest-performing 14-inch laptop in our history.”

    <p>The name change was dumb, but Dynabook makes great laptops. When I worked in IT I had us switch from Lenovo’s constantly breaking trash to Dynabooks. Never once had an issue in the 8 or so months we’d been using them, and although we were on the cheap Satellites, the screen and trackpad were far better than they had any right to be. Users loved them. </p>
