that's the problem, can't figure out the model no. from dealer's handwriting, and google is'nt showing this one, but the model no. is about the same, so can't find any link to this..
But have found another one with 2TB HDD, everything else same and looks were also the same.
Samsung Series 5 550p.
Also i forgot, the model had JBL speakers with a SubWoofer @ bottom..
About Samsung's quality, even i have doubt, let's see if anyone here knows about it..

only reason for difference in prices i m seeing is due to brand name....otherwise configs r almost same

LOL, these are not ultrabooks. Ultrabook comes with different processors, and this laptop Series 5 550 would be not less than 75k.

First confirm, what is model number AFAIK samsung never launch any model with that much high conf in India, last year I was waiting for samsung series 7 chronos and they didnt launch.

Not sure about the model no., but the configuration and price are genuine, i was also shocked to see the conf, so he said the attendent to bring this piece from stock, he unpacked the laptop in front of my eyes (Was in samsung original package), and on the carton, all the configuration was written with MRP: 62700/-.

 

[Vensanga]

Order it from Dell India online

how long will it take for shipping? will it be available in Dell store too?

Tell me, how can be that laptop be an ultrabook with processor like 3610QM ??
Ultrabook is different thing comes with different processors.
Samsung India website has no sign of that series 5 or any IVB laptops, may be he is selling some imported pieces.

Is that look like this? LINK

There is some great information on the new Dell 15R SE on this thread. Thanks to Sisley for the performance information.

I am trying to find out if the Dell 15R SE supports 16GB RAM. Dell will allow only upto 8GB total when buying the SE, but the processor 3612QM allows upto 32GB. So, I'm not sure if its just an artificial constraint by Dell. I want to have the option of upgrading to 16GB after buying. The HP DV6-7040TX which has the 3610QM supports upto 16GB, so it may be possible in the Dell too, which I prefer over the HP due to better graphics and cooler CPU.

Anyone know more about this? I could ask Dell support, but I'm not sure if I will get reliable information from them.
Thanks!

not like that, but like the one which i had given before:
Samsung Series 5 550p.

BTW, i could'nt resist myself anymore and just now ordered 15R special edition with i7, 8GB RAM, backlit keyboard, 3yr. premium warranty..
Expecting it on 25-26 jun, was waitin for 1080p, but dell representative said that the prices will shootup then by atleast Rs.6000 @ FHD, so i cancelled the plan, and directly ordered this one...

well, total cost was rs.72324, bought it from Dell exclusive store, with accessories: bt headset, wireless mouse, 36 month mcafee, backpack(not the stock one, but a blue one from targus costing near 2800).

And it depends on you to take the backlit, i'll do codings @ night, so needed one, it's better to be safe than sorry..
where it goes 70000, 900rs backlit doesn't look like a bad deal..

And processors remain below 70*C in gaming is very great in IVB processors.
How much battery you are getting?

ya i m most surprised by temps results.....i have recorded and checked them after 1/2 hr each and thr is not much difference between temp at 1/2 hr and 2hr after game start........also lappy cools down very fast once i exit game

 

[rider]

what about 28*C motherboard temp, is that some kinda error?
And how much battery you are getting?
