Agreed on good features, but Beware of cpu naming conventions nowadays!

not a great processor. It is good enough imo but effectively 2 generations old.

Just got mine.

1. Can confirm it has a touchscreen.
2. Laptop was in a nice zippered soft carry sleeve
3. Laptop looks & feels brand new. No signs of use at all. I went over every part of it, and the only thing I could find was a tiny hairline scratch next one of the feet.
4. Very fast, especially compared to my old 6-gen i5 Thinkpad.
5. Has some bloatware, need to uninstall.

Overall, great value for the money. Very satisfied.

This has alot of great features: USB C charging, 512GB SSD, 16GB RAM, a very solid processor, and a touchscreen. Great deal for the price!

Anyone know the gaming specs?
When it says AMD graphics they are referring to integrated graphics. It's not meant for gaming.

Quote from beggerking :
you just gotta try it.. most ppl i know will not go back...

scrolling webpages is faster and more precise
easy to copy and paste compared to touchpad, again, more precise
drawing
increase /decrease website font
testing out software / websites .. rather than try to locate the button, just touch screen

this is one feature that is really really nice to have. you DON"T have to use it if you don't like to use it. there is no good reason not to have it. it doesn't increase weight too much overall, doesn't increase cost much either. just as durable.
OK, my next laptop will have touch.

Looking to replace a couple of our super outdated laptops. Mostly for my kids to play Minecraft haha. Is this the best buy or should I be looking for something else?

Seems pretty good for the price. Reviews on Amazon are very positive. Wonder why it is not getting much love here.

There is also a version with i5-1235U for $300 ($270 after 10% off) but with 8GB RAM & 256GB SSD.
Ram upgradeable?

A new Gateway w/ 16 gb for $279-$299 was ubiquitous on SD during the Christmas season last year as I bought one, but it has been absent this year, it seems.
It was last year walmart too. I got it but the hinge broke.

Thanks, OP. Was looking for a basic laptop for the kids and after many orders and cancelling orders for the last couple days or so, I found this. Don't want to pay more than $300 for just a basic school/homework laptop.

I bought one of those Gateway i5 16gb RAM laptops. It died in 4 months and support hasn't responded in a week.

Best for under $300. The integrated gpu should be able to handle Minecraft and Roblox.

Here, I think you meant this "Make rational decisions quickly and finalize any reversible decisions when your confidence in them meets or exceeds the requirement. "
