Reviews for the Gateway NV55S07u-6344G50Mnrk
Source: Comp Reviews
Gateway's aging NV platform is certainly starting to feel like updating. The NV55S07u-6344G50Mnrk does offer a quad core AMD processor which gives it better than expected graphics and the numeric keypad is something that many 15-inch laptops are dropping these days. The problem is that is the battery life is below much of the Intel based laptops in this price range and it lacks a USB 3.0 port which some of the Gateway NV series has included in the past.

AMD Radeon HD 6520G:
Integrated processor graphics card (in the A6-Series of Llano APUs) without dedicated graphics memory and only 320 of the 400 shader cores.

15.6": 15 inch display-variants are the standard and are used for more than the half of all notebooks. 15.4 inch display with 16:10 are the standard for notebook displays. However nowadays, more and more 16:9 displays with 15.6 inch appear. The reason why so many people like displays with medium size is, that this size is not exhausting for the eyes, does not need too much energy and the laptops can be kept quite compact.» To find out how fine a display is, see our DPI List.
2.6 kg: This notebook is lighter than the average of all notebooks. It is too heavy for sub-notebooks. 14 inch displays are normal for this class of weight.
