I've been reading all the reviews for these Gateway deals and the consistent theme is poor build quality. Broken case, display, screen, trackpad, keyboard within a few months. I guess if you use it like a desktop it's a great deal, but if you use it like a portable it'll break.

are all the screens just falling apart? anyone have real world experience?
im in the market for a home pc with light browsing and google photos, MAYBE very light gaming or emulators
I'm having good experience with Gateway from Walmart for the last 1.5 years. I bought 2 gateways with RTX 2060 for my daughter and myself, and we've been with them so far (Fan is a little noisy). I'm not playing games, but my daughter is playing

bought one a few months ago and it has been fine. The keyboard is very clicky, doesn't have a real quality feel. as noted by others. plugged into a keyboard and monitor it runs like a champ. i would not lug it around in a backpack. A lot of computer for the money, and missing all of the little design touches
The i5 scores better on CPU benchmarks throughout and looks stronger on GPU a bit as well. It also comes with 16GB of ram, so I'd say it's a better deal. Especially now since the grey is sold out and that blue is hideous, while the i5 is available in black still. Plus if you don't need the number pad the 14" version of the i5 is only $280

https://www.walmart.com/ip/739981902 is this the one you suggested?
1/2 of the reviews are 1 star! Heck no for me!
