Cool. I will be buying mine from vsl electronics, madhapur and i am also getting the same deal. Have asked them to arrange synaptics model.

I think there are two variants for this model so the one with matte finish screen have Synaptics touchpad and the one with Glossy screen have Elan touchpad.

Hey udit thanks for the reply. I think i will go ahead with the model i am getting. The reason i was skeptic is because i had a bad experience with previous laptop and didn't want to end up visiting service center as soon as i purchase new laptop.

What make and model of laptop you previously have?

@ $hadow

Do you observe any noticeable performance increment in your Y510P after installing 24GB SmartCache (SSD).

Guys sorry for another stupid question but need urgent help. Are you having glossy finish screen or matte finish because the model i am getting its glossy screen with elan touchpad.:confused:

And Hey udit i believe you got the same model and you also mentioned you are getting average performance. Please help me out. I cant understand how is it possible that there are two kind of models being sold and showroom people don''t have a slight idea about it.

Hello all I just want a clarification as $hadow and diya who are the proud owners of the new Lenovo Y510p says they have GT 755m 2gb GDDR5 right? But today I called thedostore customer care to confirm this as on the thedostore website it shows GT 750m GDDR5 and they confirmed me that all Y510p model consists of GT 750m only no GT 755m is available with Y510p. Now I am pretty confused regarding this :|

Yes I got the same variant and its performance is average compared to Synaptics touchpad but you wont feel the difference much coz some sensitivity problem was there in the starting models of Y500 and its already been fixed so you can go ahead with your order and as I said before if you feel Elan is not your cup of tea than you can always replace it with Synaptics later on.

Customer care people have no idea what their company's products have in them, they just know how to please customers. Rest assured that Y510P has Intel Core i7 4700MQ, Nvidia GeForce GT 755M 2GB, FHD screen, 2X4RAM, Elan touchpad, Seagate 1TB HDD, Liteon DVDRW, Red Glow Keypad with 3 Levels, JBL Speakers.....

I am going to buy mine today.. and i believe mine is same as yours. Glossy and elan touchpad. Also i did some research and found that initially lenovo offered matte finish in y510p everywhere but now its glossy for US as well.

So it means we got the newer model, actually I used to think exactly opposite!

udit247,

A cheap solution to improve performance, try readyboosting using a free SD Card in the 6-in-1 SD Card slot. I had a free 16GB SD card (Class 10) and allocated it completely for readyboosting. I notice significant difference in booting, hibernation and shut down times and minor difference in application loading times.
ReadyBoost - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Although I am very sure this has very minimal impact on improving gaming performance other than application load times.

Hey yea ours has 755m and full hd. Also touchpad is fine..i think we don't have to worry about anything.
