The Satellite P series was Toshiba Information Systems's secondary premium line of Satellite laptops introduced in 2003. It later eclipsed Toshiba's primary premium line of Satellites, the A series, in 2011.
The first entry in the series, the P25, was one of the first laptops to feature a widescreen 17-in LCD, following in the footsteps of Apple's PowerBook G4 released the same year. The P25 was also one of the first laptops to feature an internal DVDñRW drive. PC Magazine rated it well as a multimedia system.
P series models introduced in 2012 were priced at US$800, $100 higher than their midrange S series counterparts. Features of the 2012-issue P series models included Nvidia GeForce graphics processing units, Harman Kardon speakers, optional touchscreen displays and backlit keyboards as standard. Toshiba offered 15.6- or 17.3-inch-diagonal screens for these models at 1080p resolution, with a bevel-free design for the display housings. The integrated graphics chip and HDMI ports also supported 4K output.
Toshiba discontinued the P series in 2016 along with the entire Satellite line of laptops.
