New, Smaller Radius 12 Hybrid From Toshiba Adds 4K Display

Toshiba is trying to push the limit of expectations for a slim Windows 10 hybrid with a 12.5-inch display. The new Satellite Radius 12 doesn't bother with the lower resolutions and low-power processors you mostly see in smaller laptops, but instead they offer much more high-end options.

This new laptop is only 0.6 inches thick and weighs 2.8 pounds (15.4mm and 1.32kg). With the Radius 12, you can even put up to a Core i7 CPU from Intel's new sixth generation Core i series, also known by the code name Skylake. You can also pick a full 4K-resolution display, at 3840x2160. If you don't want to overdo it, the standard resolution is 1920x1080.

Just like Lenovo's Yoga line and other fold-back hybrids, the Radius 12 also uses a hinge that folds back 360 degrees to make a tablet. The hinge stops in the middle so it can make a form of kiosk so it can stand up. The device also has Harman Kardon speakers and up to 512GB of SSD storage.

Toshiba says the gold finish Radius 12 will be available in the US and the UK closer to the end of the year but still haven't released prices yet. So keep a look out for new updated information to come, if you're interested.
