Gateway DS50 Pro Reviews

ITreviews‘s review Edit

To some extent the DS50 is a PC in search of a niche. It has the performance to handle graphics apps, though it's not strong enough graphically for heavyweight gaming. It's certainly capable of video playback, but isn't really equipped as a home cinema station and it's pricey as an office PC, at a time when you can get a Core i3-530 with 4GB of memory and 500GB of hard drive for under £400.

reghardware‘s review Edit

This is a well-made, reasonably well-equipped, compact business PC, designed for business multimedia editing. As long as that’s 2D multimedia and you’re not asking too much of its graphics, it should be able to keep its head up in this environment. It’s a bit heavyweight for simpler office work, though.

PC Advisor‘s review Edit

The Gateway DS50 isn’t about performance – which will almost certainly be sufficient for most businesses. Instead it’s about a compact size and quiet operation. It won’t be perhaps as easy to upgrade or repair as big-box PCs, but it’ll perform the job well for its target audience while taking up little room.

PC Pro‘s review Edit

It's this lack of versatility that proves the Gateway's undoing. The basic chassis, single specification and dearth of software look weak next to the well-designed and more adaptable products from both Lenovo and Dell. The DS50 isn't a bad PC but, when up against strong competition, it isn't quite good enough.
