Gateway ID47H: With Memorable Frameless screens

Gateway ID47H Memorable Frameless Screens - After a while the vacuum in the arena of competition in the notebook market, the end product from the manufacturer Gateway notebooks began to enter the market in the country. This time, we get a chance to review one of their flagship product, Gateway ID47H series. This notebook makes us "drool" because it has an attractive chassis design with sufficient specification to support the work. In fact, given the specifications, can also be a machine to play 3D games. As to whether this ID47H Gateway? Please refer to the following reviews.

Gateway notebooks ID47H who come to the table we test this using a blend of silver colored casing with aluminum line pattern on the cover and the LCD screen handrest. Matte black color found on the side and underneath. These colors blend succeeded in presenting a fairly attractive notebook design. The dimensions of the Gateway ID47H looks thinner than similar notebooks with screen sizes. It weighs a few grams lighter too. In your hands, this notebook will feel light and thin.

Inside the casing is stored ID47H Gateway Intel Core i5 2410M running at 2.3GHz speed and also comes with a Turbo Boost and DDR3 SODIMM memory of 4 GB. Judging from the basic specification, we believe this notebook can deliver top-class performance is quite capable to run common applications smoothly. When we look into the data storage, we were quite amazed. How not ID47H Gateway provides 750 GB hard disk that we think are rarely found in the notebooks on the market. One thing that is not less important, although thin, this notebook still includes optical drive, DVDRW multi drive.

Affairs graphics card, Gateway ID47H entrust to the NVIDIA GeForce GT540M with 1 GB of memory. Graphics card NVIDIA Optimus technology that uses graphics on an Intel GMA 3000 can still be used today do not require high graphics performance. With new graphics, we expect the Gateway ID47H not only a mere machine worker but also a gaming mesih capable enough to run many 3D games smoothly. A little note, this notebook is not intended as a gaming machine so that when we use continuously for a long time to play 3D games, what happens is that excessive heat and symptoms of throttling. It is better you read the article "Solutions to Play Games Longer with Notebook" to anticipate these symptoms.

ID47H Gateway uses a screen size 14 "with a maximum resolution of 1366 × 768. One thing that is interesting from the gateway screen is mounted is a very thin edge of the screen at all so it looks like a frameless screen and has a thickness of very thin due to the use of LED lights. Talking about the display, Gateway ID47H using a glossy screen. Later, you may be a little disturbed by the shadows around you. However, you can minimize it by raising the level of brightness. Viewing angle is also quite good because the screen does not change color gradation excessive when viewed from the left and right. The screen will change color gradation when you see it from above.

The right side of the Gateway ID47H have been equipped with a USB3.0 port. Later, if you have purchased a USB3.0 external storage, you will feel a high transfer rate when transferring data into or out of the notebook. Unfortunately, the placement USB3.0 little trouble. If you are still using a wired mouse, would be wrong to make use of these ports as a liaison mouse. Because USB 3.0 ports are available only one, of course, the port will be immediately discharged. However, it will not interfere when you use a mouse with a micro receiver. You can put it in the USB port on the left.

In addition, the battery on this notebook is not removable so that when problems occur you must to service center for repair. It also makes the thickness of this notebook can be minimized.

We acknowledge that the keys keyboard with matte silver color is very helpful when used in low-light room. Although not equipped with a backlit keyboard, but the keys are black and the letters can still be seen clearly in comparison with the keys are black berwrna. The keyboard is ergonomic and given also feels tender when we used to typing in a long time.

Besides the keyboard, trackpad is bluish with a glossy finish like the plastic is also very exciting because it has a width of the room so that your fingers will be leluasi play on it when doing multitouch gestures. Left and right click functions together with the trackpad and located right on the edge of the casing and make handrest a neat appearance. Left and right click functions also feels soft and does not cause loud noise when in use. One slightly annoying thing is the variety of stickers stuck to the handrest make it look messy parts or less clean. You can get rid of these stickers if you want.

Testing

SysMark 2007
The resulting performance shows blend intel processor and NVIDIA graphics can provide performance above the average value of the Intel Core i5 2410M. With these values, you can count on Gateway ID47H to medium-run applications smoothly.

Battery Live Rating
Browsing 5 Tab: This online test using the FireFox browser and refresh a website alternately with a predetermined time (eg, website A refresh of 30 seconds, 40 seconds refresh the website B). We use a variety of websites, ranging from mild to use flash in considerable amounts.

Movie 720 and Movie WMV MOV 1080: We simulate to get the battery life when a notebook is used for watching movies in various resolutions. The results we get using the log-time applications.

From the test results, these successful ID47H Gateway has a pretty good staying power with only a 6000mAh battery. Watching movies with a resolution of 720 can run nonstop for 4 hours 18 minutes and you can browse through without stopping for 5 hours and 15 minutes via a WiFi network.
