Toshiba A7 First, we build the best possible Notebooks, Toshiba’s warranty and support services

First, we build the best possible Notebooks.

Then we back them up with the best possible support.

Toshiba’s warranty and support services.

We know how important Notebooks are to users. That’s why we aim to build reliability into every device at every stage.

Still, the fact is the mobile working environment can be tough. Temperature extremes, impacts, over-packed bags and spilt liquids can all put a Notebook out of action. And sometimes, despite our best efforts, a few Notebooks – fewer than any other manufacturer’s – develop problems.

To minimise any downtime, we’ve set up a service and support network that covers both Australia and New Zealand. It is dedicated to mobile computing. We’ve also developed a variety of warranty options to provide extra levels of comfort.
