The Portégé series has a long line of several models, the latest being the 13.3 inch R30 series and the similar Z30 series. It is a lightweight series of laptops targeted to business professionals. Portégé laptops occasionally featured first-in-the-world technologies. R500 was one such machine, first of its kind in terms of form factor that provided an integrated DVD drive and was less than a kilogram in weight.
Portégés are designed to be mobile, with a focus on portability, style, and performance. Throughout their history, Portégé machines have been extolled due to their focus on long battery life. Furthermore, several high-end models in the Portégé line feature a Honeycomb Rib Structure which makes the laptop stiffer and more durable.
