The Samsung Series 5 550P Laptops Thread
Yes, Purchased S03IN in direct Samsung dealer for 59,000 INR (which is 995 INR less than Flipkart or any other online show room)
Simply the best. Much happy with its performance so far! Would like to know if some one had installed LINUX successfully (As Dual Boot) in S03in? Searched many threads, but there is issue with UEFI Secured boot. Please guide me (step by step) if they got working one.
Thanks!!

I took the laptop to a service center and they were not able to repair it despite having a recovery disc....There was something wrong with BIOS...It was not giving any option to boot from disc or USB(They said that it could be a motherboard problem too since the laptop was automatically shutting down in the BIOS menu)....They offered me a refund via check but it would take 15-20 days....Flipkart is doing the same in 3-4 days on my dad's credit card(not the wallet).
Honestly,I did not even want a refund....I was expecting a replacement...But I guess flipkart did not offer it to me because it's currently out of stock.
Hmmmm....any suggestions for me now?

a mobo replacement can even fix it or a BIOS reflash might fix it!BTW It's good that you are wee-bit satisfied w/ refund
They offered me a mobo replacement....But don't you think it is better to buy a new laptop rather than the one which malfunctions after using it for barely 2 hours(which included win update and AV update)..

Is 90 really "over"heating.. it was way above this before last bios release.. and i'm talking about 90 with latest games like hitman absolution.. rest remain below 90

So, should i go with 15r turbo for gaming cos earlier i was leaning towards 550p due to better gpu and antiglare display.

Yeah,
but i am still confused b/w the 2.
I see that you also own np550 ,if the issues with this laptop are solved i would like to go for the same but many people are still complaining about it even after the bios update.I am only a casual gamer(2hrs max at stretch) but i will play new games like hitman and if the temp reaches 90 then it will be a problem,so what will be your opinion (a bit detailed if you have time) b/w these 2.
