[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's nice, it freezes a bit, but otherwise pleased

I love this. It has just what I need and use. Not loaded up with a bunch of stuff that is useless to me. The screen is clear and easy to see items on it,. I am currently ordering one for my husband

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This laptop is perfect! The display is beautiful! The battery life is decent for a gateway laptop. It’s very easy to carry around once you get a laptop carrier. I would totally recommend this brand and product!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Im loving this laptop. Its such a good size. The display is bright and beautiful. Battery lasts hours. It performs great even with multiple tabs going for my business. I have had so many issues with other brands laptops and this has been a refreshing change. Gateway is my new go to!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’m really enjoying this laptop. I love the 17.3 inch screen. It’s very clear and the pixels are perfect. I’m able to actually play my Steam games on here with no lag, which is really nice. I really love those sleekness of this laptop and How do you keyboard space is literally almost the length of one of my fingers. You have plenty of space for your arms to go beside the mouse area on the laptop. I really like that. It is a touch mouse area. I really think that it was very clever to make this so sleek because it gives a modern grown-up kind of look to the laptop if that makes sense. It does come with a charger. The charger is heavy at the base so you definitely have to make sure that when you are plugging it in the plug-in in the wall is not a wiggly area but a secured plug-in area. I’m OK with that because it makes it easy to keep up with in my opinion. The cord is a nice length as well. The keyboard area is nice and asleep. When you first set up the computer, it does have three loading steps and it will probably take about an hour and a half for it to load all the way, which is fine and then I’ll restart and then you can explore everything on the computer. But while you wait for the three steps to install, you do get the screens that tell you more information about what you’re able to do on the computer, such as open games with a single touch, it gives you tools for focus, it gives you the option to discover the power of copilot on the windows, you can take a quiz about the information they give you and you can even play a game called surf the waves, which is really nice while you wait. I found it really fun. Even my kids played it while waiting on the computer to install all three steps. Overall I think this is a great starter laptop but if you’re going to be gaming or doing alot of things at once, this isn’t the laptop for that. But I give it 4/5 because it does what it’s designed to do. Pros: Nice size Sleek Comfortable long periods Lengthy charger Very informative Ease of pressing keys 1 USBC port SD Slot Cons/Dont like: Slow when you are trying to do a lot of things at once such as checking your email watching a video. Mouse will lag a bit It lags a lot and it freezes up multiple times. If you are using procreate or if you’re trying to download a lot of things at once, it’s going to slow down the computer drastically. If you are trying to copy files from one folder into another file, it will freeze and then it will stop responding. So far I’ve had to control alt and delete twice . Currently the search feature is not even showing up at the bottom of the screen like it’s supposed to I don’t know what’s going on. Overall this is a great starter laptop in my opinion. It does the basics of what you would need a laptop to do in my opinion as well. I love the size. I love this weakness and the style of this laptop. It does have a USB-C charger, which is very updated. Overall, I give it a four out of five like I stated above, but don’t think you’re gonna be playing a lot of games on this computer and it’s gonna work smoothly. It will glitch or maybe even freeze. When it does freeze, press control all and delete go to task start task. Click on that and then click on the program that’s not responding and then click in task and it should hopefully end it without issues.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The laptop isn’t the best computer out there but honestly, it gets the job done. It’s a decent entry-level laptop if you just need something for everyday stuff — browsing, writing, working from home, that kind of thing. The big 17.3" screen definitely gives you a lot of space to work with, and while the display isn’t super sharp, it looks fine for videos and general use. Setup was super easy, and transferring files from another computer was smooth. Battery life seems to vary — it's good for lighter tasks, but if you push it a bit, you’ll probably find yourself reaching for the charger sooner than you'd like. It’s fairly lightweight for the size, but because it’s a 17-inch laptop, it’s not the easiest thing to carry around all day. Overall, if you just need a basic laptop that covers the essentials without breaking the bank, this one’s not a bad choice. Nothing fancy, but it does what you need it to.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Great battery performance and durability. Large 17" UHD screen provides a huge view with crisp graphics and wide brightness adjustment. Computer becomes choppy with multiple task-heavy windows open at once, and YouTube videos struggle at 4k. Great computer for simple browsing tasks on the fly. Lightweight enough to make the 17" size feel portable and easy to carry in computer bag or backpack during daily activities.

Item arrived and started working but then it quit completely so I returned it to the store. I’m still waiting for the refund

I bought this computer because my 10 year old computer was overloaded with junk files it ran so slow that I never wanted to log on. Since I pretty much only run Excel and use the internet I figured any new computer would be a significant upgrade, but I was wrong. Yes, I know this was only $250, but it lags severely when using the internet, and switching between programs. The whole reason why I bought it was to not deal with this, but here I am. Major disappointment with this computer.

If you want a backlit keyboard, DO NOT purchase this computer. It does NOT have a backlit keyboard! Fault advertisement!!!
