SlashGear‘s review Edit

The Gateway ID49C’s core hardware is decent, but we’re left confused by the company’s decisions in how they wrapped it up. The ID49C is certainly a good looking notebook, but in real-world conditions the attention seems to have been paid to the wrong components: a pointless backlit trackpad instead of a more useful backlit keyboard, and money spent on an aluminum lid rather than a better quality LCD display.

PC Magazine‘s review Edit

The Gateway ID49C13u seduces with an aluminum design that not many can pull off for $850, let alone put in premium components like a Core i5 processor and Nvidia Geforce GT 330M graphics.

After all is said and done, I am at a bit of an impasse with the Gateway ID49C13u. The sad track pad really ruins this machine for me. I could use the notebook with an external mouse, but for a trackpad to have so many issues is not a good thing considering how much use it will get with most users. I can only hope that the track pad issues I have found on this machine aren't common across the entire line. Sadly, the fact that the Gateway ID49C13u is in perfect physical condition leads me to expect the same issues across the line. Other than the poor track pad and the flexing keyboard, the Gateway ID49C13u offers impressive performance considering its under $850 price tag.
