Gorgeous 1080p Display: Visual Impact
A 12.5-inch diagonal, Full HD (1920 x 1080), multi-touch wide viewing angle display packs over 2 million pixels onto the screen. Text is sharper and easier to read. Color and quality is spot on. And to top it all off, the display of the Portégé X20W is reinforced with all-new Corning® Gorilla® Glass 4, which offers higher levels of damage resistance as it’s better able to withstand the shock of accidental bumps.

Amazingly Natural Handwriting
Coupling the 12.5-inch diagonal display with Toshiba’s exclusive TruPen® incorporating Wacom® Feel technology, allows Toshiba’s 2-in-1 convertible PC to deliver a professional grade digital handwriting experience enhanced by an antiglare coating. Toshiba’s TruPen can detect 2,048 levels of pressure, giving users a natural pen-on-paper writing experience, making the Portégé X20W perfect for taking notes, drawing, capturing signatures and completing forms. To deliver a realistic and accurate inking experience, the Portégé X20W uses a feature called Toshiba Digital Ink Assist to detect when the digital pen is near the screen and enables palm recognition on the device.

Leading-Edge Security Features
Toshiba developed the Portégé X20W with both biometric and facial authentication technologies to deliver an advanced level of security and distance itself from the competition. This is the first Toshiba computing solution to incorporate the SecurePad™ with Synaptics® Natural ID fingerprint sensor⁵ built right into the computer’s Touchpad. The Portégé X20W features an IR camera to allow for facial authentication via Windows Hello face sign-in. These two technologies are personal, secure and a password-free way to quickly log-in to your device.

Windows 10 Pro
With an IR camera, dual multi-directional microphones, touchscreen and an AES pen, Toshiba engineered the Portégé X20W to maximize the advanced features of Microsoft’s powerful operating system such as Windows Hello, Cortana, Microsoft Edge and Windows Ink.
