DON'T buy from Flipkart! Cash on Delivery is fine, don't pay with Credit Card. Yes, I have a VERY bitter experience!

Not really. I also bought a laptop with CC, with EMI option. And it went super smooth. FK were ahead of their promise.

^^sorry for getting offtopic but Aramex courier is worst ..I ordered gta 4 on 1st july, it got shipped on 2nd to delhi and its 12th they(aramex) have my item w/ them and now they say that they can't ship the product to just 200kms away from there..luckily fk is supporting and promised me that they will arrange any other courier service or by speed post.....

Man, I think you bought your laptop from letsbuy.
Flipkart is turning a cheater eshopping site, i also purchased my laptop from them but they didn't deliver, after so much of calling and emailing they refunded my money after weeks. I also won't recommend anyone to buy something from them without COD.

Am getting it next Tuesday, So wait till Tuesday nite. Hope i have not taken any wrong decision .

im very sure your decision wont be wrong, but it may not be the best also... anyhow apart from gaming, there are many other things this sony vaio laptop is worth for..

@girishpaiv Thanks !!

@RON28 Yea its a beast for its price .... I hadn't seen the black one, so got the silver color

Oh and we get 2 years warranty, its some sort of promotional offer by samsung.

Sometimes you take things for granted. Whenever I talk of a laptop, you mention my Vaio. I don't have only one laptop. Just read what I write, I'm not making false comments. I bought a new laptop just some weeks ago.

Okay, you mean you purchased through EMI.

 

[dashing.sujay]

EMI option is only available when you purchase through CC.

It's good you didn't faced any problem but me and two three more users in forum who purchased laptop above 50k range faced the same problem.

Yes, I know, but its like a few drops in a ocean. We all know how good FK is. In my case, I had train on 28th, and estimated delivery was 30th, I just requested them to make it by 27th. Although they didn't promised to do, but said they'll try their best, and marked my order as "priority". Rest is history

There is only silver colour available !!!!! Its a one colour model !! Where are you getting the black ? make sure its the 550p

 

[Ashish247]

You are in kolkata? Eastern Logica in Chandni Chowk has it on display from today 3pm(I was there when they put it! ), you can steal a glimpse tomorrow before I snatch it!

I'm not in Kolkata atm. I've to go to Kolkata on 17 for an interview and will return in 2 days. Dont want such a distraction before the interview

 

[Maddy_AzAd]

Any idea where one of these can be found in Bangalore? and yeah how's the clicking buttons on the touchpad ?some of the older samsng models had ones that were of inferior quality

It is available in Binary world and The laptop store.
BW is quoting 50,245 including tax and Lappy store is around 52k.

 

[dan4u]
