just as i thought....the other question is,do yo think if lenovo will provide warranty if we change the panels?.. or is it even better to ask them to switch to another display and provide them extra money? the screen is the only thing that holding me back from this one..

You will void your warranty if you change the panel. Lenovo won't do it for you. You can either do it yourself or get some local technician to do it for you.

Why do you play at 768p??? Looks ugly... Play on FullHD...
It works well on FullHD and medium for me... SLI though...
I don't have a SLI set up

Congrats guys Lenovo y50 has landed in india officially

Last year lenovo imported 310 y510p laptops for 44,000
*www.zauba.com/import-lenovo-510-hs-code.html
Lenovo y50 is costing 45,000 so the retail price will be the same as of lenovo y510p.
I am expecting retail price to be the same range Rs 77,000-80000.
The only mystery here is specifications of the laptop. I dont think lenovo is getting 4gb 860m version to india.

I dont think they will wait for that long. Thedostore has sold out y510p. It is no longer available.
I expect it to sell in next 2 weeks probably by 10th of august.
By seeing these dates in zauba from now on if u want to buy a new laptop and u are poor to buy extended warranty always buy exactly one year after it is launched . So if a laptop is launched in july 2013 buy it after 8-9 months when they will be offering 3 year warranty free so that they can clear the stock for the next new laptop.

Lenovo had sold Y500 with core i7 3632QM in India whereas everywhere else in the world, Y500 had core i7 3630QM.
This however was a blessing in disguise, this processor saves battery life by upto 30% and runs cooler.
Maybe the Kepler version of GTX 860m will result in cheaper laptops.

y510p:
- is SLI capable
- better screen
- produces a lot more heat in SLI mode
y50:
- has better CPU(a bit) + GPU (way better..)
- lacks m2 NGFF SSD slot (although you can jst replace the primary HDD with a SSD)
- poor screen (color reproduction/viewing angles/washed out colors as per reviews)
- should be around the same price as that of a y510p
I picked up a y510p...fingers crossed for indian version's reviews.
I'd rather quote this than copy/paste
