It's way better than a Chromebook. Make sure you modify the power limit and graphics settings in bios (watch ETA Prime youtube vid) to double the performance. You can't beat this value for the cpu and 16gb (soldered) ram and 500gb m2 ssd. Free upgrade to Win11. Limited bloatware. Refurbished units pop up on walmart for ~$260 of the 14" model.

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).

Just to let everyone know the ssd drive is sata. Only 550mb per sec transfer.
Given that it's still very snappy. Have 2 of them and work just fine.

I bought 2 about 9 months ago back when they were $250 at Walmart. First one had a damaged screen from shipping. Returned it and got another one no hassle. NO complaints with the quality or speed of these. I use one just for general stuff and my gf uses hers for her crafts with her cricket machine and whatnot. Won't find anything better for under $300! If you're that worried about buying a Gateway then spend the extra money on the insurance or hop off the post. Ridiculous bringing up the brand. Go spend $1000 on your Mac and move on 👍🏼

***Would also like to add that for $20-$30 you can add a 3 year warranty for these through Walmart***

Quote from metalgod3082 :
I see mixed messaging on whether the M.2 slot where the current SSD is located supports NVME. Some people say you can move the current Sata M2 to the other slot and then you can use an nvme M2 SSD where the original was.

Has anyone successfully installed an NVME in the original slot in this laptop?
I bought a Silver refurbished one for $199.99 and tried a NVME drive in internal M.2 slot and it didn't work. The one I bought came with Windows 10, so not sure if newer ones that come with WIndows 11 have a different chipset that supports NVME.

That's how mine was packed too and it was ok. It took me a few tries the first time to turn it on too. I never figured out was the problem. Make sure to hold the power button for a few to turn on.
Thanks mate, I have to hold the power button for 3 seconds to turn it on. Is there a power setting to disable this? This is quite annoying

No sorry. If there's such setting it would be a firmware thing and in such case, it would be in the BIOS. I dug around BIOS myself and couldn't find anything. I'll let you know if I find anything.

There's, however, a BIOS setting to set the Gateway Logo display time, ships with default 5 seconds. I set mine to 1 second. If Delete Key is not hit in that time, BIOS boots into the OS.
Otherwise, BIOS enters the BIOS setup pages. I don't know if it's possible to set to 0, but I would not set it to 0 bc otherwise, it'll be difficult or impossible to get into the BIOS.

Had the refurb of this for a while. Stout processor, good sized SSD, and enough RAM to open up plenty of tabs without grinding to a halt. Not perfect, but for the cash, I've been super happy. Build quality is not IBM Thinkpad, sure, and there are shortcuts taken (the power connector is also iffy and i worry that it would break easily) but overall a good deal!
He said IBM Thinkpad.

In 2023.

What have you tried to make it work? Did the NVME drive show up in the BIOS? There was a youtube video showing a 15.6" version I think a couple years back that shows a "PCIe *4" label near the internal M.2 connector so clearly, the board was laid out to support NVME. I'm not sure if there're nvme specific hardware that sits between the NVME connector and the southbridge. If there's, maybe Gateway cheap out by not populating the components?

Could this be because if power setting where pressing the power button once puts the computer to sleep and wakes it if you press again?

IDTS. That option gives single press to put computer to sleep and once in sleep, press ANY key to wait the computer up.

All the DIY PCs I built and my Dell XPS-15 all turn on with one single press. My Samsung Book Pro 360 which is a 2-in-1 needs to hold down the power key for a few. It makes sense in a 2-in-1, but kinda annoying in a standard laptop.

But no matter, like you, I setup my power button to put computer to sleep. So my computer rarely turns OFF. Majority of the times, I just press any key to wait the computer up.

Did you enable NVME in the bios settings?

I got one like this last year and for the price it's amazing. I even edit 4k video on it from a sony zv-e10. There are some negatives. Build quality isn't great. I've had the rubber feet on mine just fall off. The track pad is not reliable. But add a wireless mouse and that will fix that. I use it for creative writing and none of these are really issues there. And for 4k editing I use it with an external monitor, mouse, and keyboard. And I'm constantly shocked at how well it performs. I just need to add a bigger drive (only SAT by the way). Again for the price this is fantastic.

I just purchase the Blue model and safe side i have taken their 3 yrs protection plan for $59. Total came $361
Never took the protection plan in the past but wanna understand if this plan can be covered even if i am in canada?
I am a snow bird and lives in states during the winter months and rest of the year in canada (toronto).

Now i am getting tempted with this refurb one which is for $195 (blue color) but hesitating as i never again bought a used laptop in the past. but tempting to save further $70.

I'm impressed with this laptop. Made the recommended bios updates and after all the Windows updates and upgrade to Windows 11, it works great. This is a good deal imo.
How do we update the bios? Could you give us the link? Thank you
