24 inch Gateway FPD2485W Review

Topic:

Our review partner Digital Trends published a review of the very affordable 24 inch LCD monitor FPD2485W form Gateway.

Quote from the review:
"The FPD2485W specs are impressive on their own. 1920 x 1200 resolution, 1080p support (with HDCP), 1000:1 contrast ratio, 450 cd/m2 brightness, 6 ms response time, and a built-in, four-port USB 2.0 hub.
Keep in mind that most people will only need to know the above specs to make a purchasing decision. These specs match or surpass those of the competition. The contrast resolution is good enough for watching darkly-lit video scenes, giving good color saturation. The 6 ms response time means no ghosting or blurring during fast-paced gaming or video. "

Gateway NX570 Notebook Review

Topic:

Our review partner Digital Trends published a review of the Gateway NX570 Notebook.

Quote from the review:
"Overall, the laptop has an industrial look that is as modern and hip as any other competitor in its class. Aside from the power button in the upper right-hand corner next to the keyboard, there are no other buttons outside of the keyboard to complicate the layout. No volume controls, mute button, “sleep” button or any other controls muddy up the intentionally minimalist layout.
Traditionally, look and feel of this caliber has been reserved for the flagship models from each manufacturer, such as the Ferrari 5000 from Acer. Gateway should be commended for choosing to bring a higher fit and finish to the mainstream without bringing the corresponding higher cost. "

Gateway NX100X Notebook Review

Topic:

Our review partner Digital Trends finished a review of the Gateway NX100X notebook.

Quote:
"Over the last few years, we've seen laptop screens growing in size.
Today, you can buy a Dell "mobile entertainment system" with a 20-inch screen! However, as screens get bigger and bigger, battery life and mobility gets worse and worse. On the other side of the spectrum are the ultraportable 12" notebooks. These have gotten smaller and lighter, but one thing hasn't changed: an exorbitant price, until now. Gateway hopes to change that with their NX100X and E-100M, their ultraportable notebooks for the masses."
