I bought the 15" model last October for $300 (has numeric keypad), works great. The webcam is poor quality. Speakers are okay. The screen is a decent ips (no issues with it falling out like some reported in previous deal threads). They keyboard is nothing special. A tad heavy but it uses metal/limited plastic so build quality is average. The battery only lasts ~3hrs unplugged w battery saver browsing web/watching youtube/movies.
It has older wifi 5 & bt 5. One thing I noticed though is my HDMI output can only do 4k at 30fps, not 60fps so not really watchable. 1080p HD looks fine hooking up to TV though. I'm not sure about the usb-c output resolution.
It has a hatch in the back to add a backup m2 ssd drive (Leven JM600 1tb $40 off amazon).
Given that it's still very snappy. Have 2 of them and work just fine.

I actually am having trouble where the built in display "goes off" for up to 20 minutes and cannot be turned back on unless I wait it out, or reboot the machine via force boot. I am not a PC expert, but did a OS re-install and that did not help. Since I can't get it to "mess up" when asking for tech support, I can't get it exchanged under warranty. I do have an AllState plan from Walmart but I already know if they cannot replicate the issue, they won't warranty it from experience.
Personally, I regret this machine but there are some in this thread who had great success. I have a Dell Dock from work but it did not play nicely with this compute. Maybe I am missing drivers? I don't know. Also, while the computer is not advertised to charge via USB C, I was able to use both a Dell Branded and ONN (Walmart) branded 65 watt USB C charger without issues on this computer.
Battery life, I don't have a lot of experience. I WAS going to use it for school work and travel with it but because of how unreliable the monitor was for me, I stopped using it for that and have it as a "desktop setup" in my office at home and bought another computer to use instead.
Personally, at this price, it's still a steal in my opinion but would I buy it again? Based on my personal experience, "NO."
I will say I got updated drives from Gateway support which helped a lot. It was hard getting a hold of them last year but the drivers helped with the functionality of the computer. Wifi is "slow" capped at WiFi 5. The 1st gone I got before returning had an Intel Wifi 6 adapter. Wish I had that one, but the webcam sucked and didn't work out the box.
The chassis bends easily and I don't expect this computer to last me a long time but for the money, it was a good buy. Oh - the speakers are pretty tinny so don't expect a theatrical experience if you're using it for that. Also, the keyboard is cheap feeling. I found some of my keys "stick" when typing and doesn't make for a good long term experience for writing school papers.

How good are the gateways now? It's owned by a chinese company iirc.

Not blaming anyone but myself, but a word of caution to everyone else.
I bought the gateway, and it's nice for what it is but the battery life is about 6hrs only after setting a custom power plan. which kills performance.
without this power plan it seems like battery life is about 4-4.5 hours.
This is for general use, browsing, youtube, vscode.
Do you know what the battery life is on the dell?
Gaming and emulation are way better with ITIS Xe… 8th gen igpu blows.
MX130 on $200 dell gets 60fps on GTA5, 30fps on BF5. Itis gets 75fps GTA5.M2200 on $300
Same for an old 1080M, 2080M. lots of value for dollar running hot.
Itis definably better per watt.
$200 coupon laptop ain't bad

Did your 7300 come with a web cam privacy slide? Mine didn't. I have the touch version

Dell 7280 with new battery gets 12-24 hrs .
GW14 gets get 9-12 hrs.
Apple M1 gets 16-32hrs.
Max brightness cut battery life in half. GW15 4.5hrs, Dell 6hr, M1 8hrs.
Thats why I ordered the $130 Dell 7280 8gb for travel, i can always replace the battery for cheap new. already have GW14, but its not suitable for work travel.
The 16gb is only $170 with coupon.

It looked like the GPU settings were already set as recommended, so I didn't mess with that.
I'd really like to figure out why the USB C / Thunderbolt port doesnt send a video signal to my large ultra wide (but does on a smaller monitor I have) the resolution is supposed to be supported, but nada. Got too squeamish to mess around anymore for now.
Thanks for your reply.

Use the stock barrel charger to avoid shorting the electronics. Keep it charged 30-80% to keep battery health, keep lid open so glue won't fall apart. It will last 3-5 years with extra precautions
Im able to play youtube 4k on this laptop on 500Mpbs internet. Switch to 5ghz 200-400Mbps. 2.4ghz is very slow 25-50Mbps. LOL
I also installed $20 anker soundcore speakers 7-14watts, amazing sound bass for a small size. Much better a $800 Apple M1 speakers
