720p is approximately 1 MP, so I 'd assume that's what they mean.

This has Vega 8 graphics at 1200 MHz, and enough ram to service the GPU and system memory, so yes. Roblox runs fine on mobile phones, so this would be more than enough for Roblox, CSGo, Fortnite (at reasonable settings) etc.

Gateway is the "budget" brand of Acer. For those who think Acer wasn't already budget enough.

This is a relatively mediocre CPU by today's standards but it will be fine for almost anything except gaming and media creation.

For $349 this would be a nice laptop. Wish it was the 14.1" but shouldn't be that big of a difference.

this is walmart "gateway" not from Acer . that is should fit in super budget desk laptop, as long as you no moving it and use external mouse/keyboard/4K monitor, you are having mini tower replacement

for comparison build, lenovo entry level ideapad 3 has alot better build quality compare Wally Gateway .

16 gb is probably sufficient, but can the ram be increased in this?

1 MP webcam? I didn't even know that was possible with how advanced laptop cameras have gotten now. I'm so used to 720p + webcams.

You won't buy a $350 laptop for gaming. The CPU and memory are perfectly fine for day-2-day work. In fact, I'm using a 10 year old I7-860 with 8Gb RAM for day-2-day work, no issues whatsover. In my opinion, have a quad-core processor, 8 Gb RAM and a SSD and you're good to go for non-heavy activities.

Gateway branding still uses the spotted cow logo. I thought they would have updated that at some point.

Yes, that was precisely my point. It's fine for most users.

However, at this price and these features, you're going to be giving up something, and my guess it that something is "durability". I no longer buy low end laptops for family members from any brand, because they tend not to last too long without something breaking, which is usually proprietary and not worth fixing. This is going to be cheaply made and easily damaged, and if you're absolutely stuck and can't afford more right now, sure, go for it, with the assumption that in 2 or 3 years you'll need to replace it; not because it's obsolete but because it's cheaper to replace than fix.
