^Indian pricing will be close to 70-75k even if they put a lower GPU like 850/855M :sad: (damn those customs and newer BIS norms :censored: )

Gt 850m will probably reach close to 85-90k considering a jump from gt650m to Gt 755m made the price rise from 65k to 75k.

Meh. Only a mere 860m. They should consider 870m

Definitely... The QHD version that is yet to be released will also have the same GPU. and they would labelling it as a gaming laptop

Wait - will they skimp on the optical drive for the Indian launch as well? I don't think it's a good idea really, given the limited access to Steam and annoying bandwidth. They would do well to bundle the laptop with a complimentary Steam subscription .

I really want to but it , if it'll be under rs 100k. But most of other laptops with GTX 765M are more than rs 120k. But GTX 860M is better than 765M. that's why I'm confused with it's price.

Going to cost a bomb. Competing Asus and Alienware without proper paper work. Won't be going to work good for Lenovo.

They are messing up with sales here if they price it that high considering that lenovo us pricing is closer to their old lineup. I'll happily get a laptop from Asus rog series or msi's new launches if it comes with almost same config at lesser price.

Never seen an MSI laptop in India. Shipping from US is also an option, how much does it cost for that ?

buying y50 NOW would not be a wise decision.. and they wont releasing it here atleast for a month i think.. wait for some reviews cause the specs alone wont make up a good laptop... also its battery is very low rated .

It's still better than buying a Y510p now because it provides the same gaming performance(SLI) sans the micro-stuttering.

yes its better to get a equivalent single card rather than two in sli. should be going for msi then if they do too much late , and hope msi spreads its service centres across country asap, that is only thing that could hold me back from going for msi.

btw prices on us site for y50 are decent , hope they dont deviate it too much in india.

has any other indian company announced laptops with 800 series maxwell gpu ?

Lenovo Y50 is certainly a good laptop as per the specs, except the battery, which would barely last more than 2hrs with heavy gaming
so battery life is a point of concern over here
I have also taken into consideration some other laptops like:
Gigabyte P35G V2,P35W V2,P25W V2
MSI GS60 2PE Ghost Pro
but the fact that they wont be available in india any time soon brings me back to Y50
hope they launch it in india soon
also in my opinion they might or they should release the present $1349 model ($1549 without discount)
any suggestions/reviews regarding other laptops with similar specs would be appreciated

I wish to inform all other Y50 buyers that the graphic card Nvidia GeForce 860m has two variants
Some GPUs are based on the new Maxwell architecture (GM 107), while some are based on the older Kepler architecture (GK 104)
Maxwell not only has lower power consumption but also better performance as compared to Kepler
Now this creates a issue over here since we do not know which version GPU is used by Lenovo
So does anyone know anything regarding which version would be used by Lenovo in Y50?

^^Maxwell.
Also, Maxwell overclocks very high. It is possible to surpass gtx 870m levels. Although y50 is just too thin for that kind of overclock.

Lenovo batteries are not for gaming. On battery, lenovo laptops throttle hardcore.

Not necessarily. Dual cards are better cooled, have a higher memory bus, overclock much better and also are cheaper than their single card siblings.

Nowadays micro-stuttering is almost non-existant on nvidia cards.
