Gateway have announced a new Gateway NV Series notebook range, these laptops have a screen size of 15.6-inches and are seen as an entertainment notebook. The new range come packed with all the latest technology and modern styling all at an affordable price.
The new Gateway NV Series range will offer multitasking performance thanks to its latest processor and graphic technology, thanks to a little help from Intel and AMD. The Gateway NV Series starts at just $499.99, which puts this laptop in to most people’s budgets.
As with most laptops, there is always a price difference between hardware configurations. The $499 comes packed with 2.1 GHz AMD Athlon 64 along with a Radeon HD 3200 GPU. The $599 comes with the more powerful 2.1GHz Intel Core 2 Duo and a GMS 4500MHD GPU.

Ok i have had the laptop for about a month now and you know the function it has the touch sensitive volume and everything. Well when i touch it, it does not pop up on the screen anymore and even though mute is off it is still lit-ten up as if it is on. That’s my problem! I hate that this is happening and i have only had it a month, what will happen when i have had it after 6 months- 1 year
I have owned this laptop, NV5214u, for just over two months. I have a much older Gateway laptop with a pentium processor and it is much faster than the new one. I am also having problems with the touchpad, internet connections, charging, icons on the bottom right of screen not always showing up, and just recently it changed the screen resolution on its own and I cant get it to change back. I have contacted Gateway but all they want to do is tell me things to try to fix it. I dont think I should have to try to correct all these problems on my own. I think they should offer to replace it or refund my money. In my opinion, this computer is a lemon.
I purchased this computer in June. In September, the display screen went completely white. I sent it back to Gateway for repair, I paid for the shipping. I called to check the status every week to be told the part isn’t in stock. After a month of waiting, I finally get a call from Gateway informing me that the part is on backorder and they would like to offer me a replacement computer equivalent to the one I purchased. I accept the replacement and received it on Tuesday, November 3. Would you believe the replacement didn’t work either? Wouldn’t even boot to Windows 7. So, I was offered, yet again, another replacement. I’m not paying to ship the replacement back so I have to be inconvenienced, again, and wait to receive a shipping label in the mail. Then I have to ship it back and when the replacement is received, then I will receive the second replacement. I’ve never been so disappointed in a product. Be smart don’t buy this machine.
