One more Que,

which one powerful with i7 8th Gen (8550u) with MX150 or i7 8th Gen (8550u) with 940MX ?

Why are you considering 8550U over 7700HQ?

MX 150 is basically a GT 1030 and is closer to a 950m
Comparison: NVIDIA GeForce MX150 vs NVIDIA GeForce 940MX

One and Only reason because those machines are highly portable (looks like) and come under 1.8 KG where 7700Hq looks at least 3KG.

There are laptops with 7700HQ at 2 KG as well. Don't sacrifice CPU power for "thin and light" laptop.

Hold on to it for as long as possible because Intel is expected to launch new design processors free from Meltdown & Spectre bugs later this year.

Isn't mx 150 much better than 940 mx? I don't understand why is *dl.flipkart.com/dl/acer-aspire-5-c...r?pid=COMFYS4VNHQ6HZ5M&cmpid=product.share.pp 4k cheaper than *dl.flipkart.com/dl/acer-aspire-5-c...t?pid=COMEZ3FRAFGHV4CR&cmpid=product.share.pp where the former has exactly same configuration other than the graphic card. It have a mx 150 and the latter have a 940 mx. Is there something I am missing here?

Usually newer stock comes with slightly different price from the earlier stock it is supposed to replace,difference can be +/- 4-5k as in this case.

So the 45k one is a sure better deal out of these?

Yes,without doubt MX150/1030 is much better than 940MX.

One question, two laptops same specs only difference I saw was GTX 1070Ti vs GTX 1070 Max-Q, which one performs better for gaming only? Also there is a cheaper one(~7k cheaper) with GTX 1070, is it worth going down the budget for it?

There is no 1070Ti laptop version,must be some typo on website/specifications.

NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1070 Max-Q GPU - Benchmarks and Specs

It is designed for thin and light laptops and about 10-15% slower than a regular GTX 1070 for laptops based on the cooling capabilities.The clock is not the only difference compared to the regular GTX 1070 though. The drivers for the Max-Q version were optimized for efficiency (and not performance; only for Max-Q models), there are optimized voltage converters for 1V operation, high-end cooling methods, and a 40 dB limit for the fan noise (with clock adjustments to ensure this at all times).

Thanks for the heads up. Confirmed from the seller regarding the typo, it was GTX 1070.

So, GTX1070 Max Q is for portability and better battery life while GTX 1070 for performance. This will help in narrowing down my choice, Thanks.
