Korkeatehoinen

Korkeatehoinen is a Finnish adjective used to describe objects or systems that deliver high power or high performance. It is formed from the noun teho (power, performance) with the suffix -inen and is combined with the intensifier korkea (high). As a generic descriptor, korkeatehoinen can apply to a wide range of domains, including electronics, machinery, computing, and energy systems. The emphasis is on raw performance or capability rather than efficiency or reliability alone.

In practical use, it appears in technical and marketing contexts to signal capable performance. Examples include korkeatehoinen tietokone (high-performance computer), korkeatehoinen moottori (high-powered engine), korkeatehoinen akku (high-performance/high-power battery). The precise meaning of "korkeatehoinen" depends on the domain: in computing, it may refer to processor speed and memory; in motors or energy devices, to output power or acceleration; in electronics, to throughput or speed.

Translations into English commonly render korkeatehoinen as "high-performance" or "high-powered," with nuance depending on context. The term is a descriptive label rather than a strict technical specification, and it coexists with more specific qualifiers to avoid ambiguity.
