Costco regularly sells the Acer Swift 3 with Ryzen 5 4500U 8GB RAM and 512GB SSD for $529.99 and just about everything about that system is better than this Gateway.
It'll have better battery life, a better screen, a much better processor, and dramatically better integrated graphics. You won't generally be able to play any sort of game on this Gateway's integrated GPU, but with the integrated Vega graphics on the 4500U you can run a number of games at low settings with more than 30 FPS. I have a friend that uses his Swift 3 for playing a game called Valheim on Steam and he gets around 45 FPS at the screen's native resolution. You'd be lucky to get 17 with the Gateway at the same settings.
So yeah, I wouldn't say there aren't better deals.
I recommend starting with Brand/Model/Screen size/CPU/GPU/Ram/SSD/etc etc

I'm not defending this laptop at all, I'm just kinda tired of all the gamers criticizing every laptop based on their gaming capabilities, especially those where gamers are not the target audience.

What's interesting to me is that the brand Gateway is still around.
Edit: nvm I see the issue now.
