Toshiba has updated its flagship Ultrabook - the Z830 has become the Z930. Featuring the latest Ivy Bridge Intel Core processors, we hope it means that the £800 Z830 gets even cheaper as a result.

Despite its rather dull keyboard and trackpad design, the workmanlike Z830 was one of the best Ultrabooks we've yet seen, primarily because of its price point yet wholesome spec.

The original may only have had a Core i3 processor, but it was more than enough for most purposes and we'd expect the successor to add even better performance to the thin and light package when it comes into us for review.

Things have obviously moved up a gear with the new model. The version we saw (which appeared to be an early version) sported a nippy Core i7-3667U chip plus a generous 6GB of memory. An extremely capable machine.

We're pleased to report that the chassis has survived virtually unaltered. We say pleased because not only is the body extremely thin and light as you can see from our pictures, but a key bonus of the Z830 was its generous offering of ports, including VGA, Ethernet, HDMI, SD and three USBs.

That made it perfect for business customers who sometimes struggle with random office projector connections and suchlike. The Z930 is no different, so expect it to sell rather well indeed.
