I own the 14" and have commented on it being a great laptop previously. It's still going strong after 1.5 years as my primary personal laptop and handles PD and DP (dual monitor via a hub) via USB C just fine. Yes it is clunky, but there really isn't anything comparable in the price range for the specs that you're getting.

Gateway is cheap/low end brand

Was interested in this until I saw reviews. Why do so many complain about the screen coming off??? No thanks.

Why is the "original" price on the 15.6 less? Makes no sense, no???

Quote from CoreyR2384 :
You're right on the soldered SODIMM, but you're wrong about the NVME compatibility. I have this laptop (the 14.1"), and the pre-populated m.2 slot is NVME PCIe gen-3 and SATA compatible. The secondary slot is only SATA. I installed an SK Hynix P31 (PCIe 3 NVME) in the primary slot and moved the 512GB drive to the secondary slot.
You have the 11th gen?
The 10th gen absolutely supports NVME. No question. I've seen multiple videos agreeing on this point.
But I haven't found anything definitive on the 11th gen.
Thanks

I picked up the 14" Gateway from Walmart for $329. This is an even better price (of course Smilie)!

Pros: It worked great, and I appreciate the full 1920x1080 at this price point and having 16GB RAM and 500GB SSD for that price point was great.

cons: One minor gripe on backlighting not being consistent with black screen--but what do you expect at this price point.

Picked it up as an emergency spare. Tested that it plays Bluray MP4s great over USB-C. Tested that it runs older games (eg: UT2004, Serious Sam, AOE, etc.) and they ran great at the native 1080.

These will not run modern games, but I think most should understand this.


I have to assume the prices are this good because the deliveries were delayed, and the orders were made when all the stimulus checks were occurring--since then things have kind of dried up. Liquidation to get rid of all the surplus stock.

how do we do that ? Increase the TDP ...

Here is the link if you want to check it out. Looks like 2 people had experience with it. Think both were on the first page of comments.

Great laptop for the money. The only reason I returned mine was that I felt guilty for having so many computers. But the screen was great, performance equally great.

Excellent school and work computer, as long as you don't need to do serious photo and video editing or machine learning or 3D modeling stuff. If anything I would probably turn down the TDP instead of up because the new CPUs already run pretty hot.

12th gen all the way. Big jump.
Big jump in temperature and energy use that is. Intel couldn't figure out how to make efficient cores so they added more instead. And they have completely abolished their TDP and let their cores draw up to 55W on laptops with 60Wh batteries. But at least it is winning benchmarks.

Quote from wildpig1234 :
I still would lean a bit more toward dell, but then again it's a close call.
Quote from LargeJames :
Only use is to be a machine to use when i dont feel like using my phone or tablet.
These are the specs of the dell i got:
Dell Latitude 7390 2-in-1 2-In-1, 1x Intel Core i5 Quad (i5-8350U) 1.70 GHz, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB HDD, No Optical, Intel Integrated Graphics, Backlit Keyboard, Windows 10 Professional

judging by reviews, i may just stick with my dell, it cost less, and has a better build quality. plus touch and backlit keyboard.
They are not completely comparable. The Dell is a 2-in-1 that you can fold into a tablet and also draw on its screen. This one is a traditional laptop. If by build quality you mean construction material sturdiness, absolutely. That is not equal to reliability though. Remember the Dell may or may not develop power chip issues that may need a motherboard replacement.

This laptop's iGPU is also 3x the power of the Dell's iGPU, bring it up to par with the AMD Vega. Not that this is a powerhouse, just that the older Intel iGPUs are very under powered in terms of 3D performance.

It is pretty much modern electronics 101 that lithium batteries don't like to be 100% charged, be it inside phones or laptops. It isn't really an issue with the battery of this laptop but the batteries of any modern electronics. It would not be wise to disqualify this laptop for that reason because any laptop you purchase if you keep it charged at 100% the battery will degrade much faster. The key is to set the battery charge limit to 80% or lower, which I know can be done on Dells and Lenovos but I am not certain about Gateway.

My brother got one of these for Christmas last year and loves it. It's specs are amazing for the price. The build quality is better than I expected. We were talking about it and it feels like maybe they made a lot of these so keep costs low and just have a lost leader to get back a decent reputation. If you look for comments from people who have bought this model, and not just a gateway, most have surprisingly great things to say. With any laptop in this price range, I would suggest buying it with specs you're not going to tinker with. I voided warranties by upgrading ram and\or swapping to SSD in HDD models, and Dell, Asus, Lenovo all didn't offer much help when there was totally unrelated issues with their laptops in less than 6 months. I'm sure gateway wouldn't either, I'm just saying, don't dismiss this as a great option for a computer under $300, just don't upgrade any of the hardware if you do.

Good points, plus HDD vs SSD makes a significant difference.

Agreed. 10 months owner here with around 8+ hours a day use. Good bang for my buck so far (bought at $380).

It does feel and look a bit cheap. The touchpad isn't great especially w/ multitouch, and I'm worried about the keyboard (some of the keys are feeling a bit spongy). Also, the webcam sucks. All pretty expected for the price point though.
