Really comes with 1x USB/eSATA combo? I checked with Lenovo Malaysia they said our local models won't have eSATA. Only USBs. Also some sources quote Y580 only have 2x USB3.0 and 2x USB2.0 (using HM76, this chipset only supports 2x USB3.0). But our models (at least mine) have 3x USB3.0 and 1x USB2.0.

These discrepancies seem a little weird. Does it mean we have HM77 chipset?

I think eSATA not, but as Asus N56Vz also using HM76 chipset but come with 4x USB 3.0

Not Full HD version he selling.

Hi guys, I thinking to buy either y480 or y580, but I bit confuse, is there any i7-3630QM y580 variant in the market?

but according to his ads at http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2472117?hl=y580 it is full hd. so is he giving wrong specs? pls provide details...

It's FHD... based on his replied to deepcool... he wrongly updated in lelong... btw... bought 2 lappy from him Y480 and Asus A43TK... seriously the best seller dealt without hassle and very helpful on answering all your question ASAP...

and also, he put the wrong photos of y480 there... but nvm as long as he is honest in his deals...

I think u must wait until raya promotion finish....

thanks for the info

personally wanted to use it as gaming/programming/vmware laptop at uni, now struggling to go 15' FHD or 14 for portability.

I not a heavy gamer though, but anything extra will be good

anyone can give me review on "how good to have full hd"?

thanks <3

yup... bought 2 lappy from him already... shortest, fastest and honest deal... bought Y480 & Asus A43TK

VMware for i7-3610QM is good enough ady, running smooth on Android 4.0 with VirtualBox

y don't go for Y480 since you are not heavy gamer... the differences between Y580 and Y480... you can get 128GB SSD + HDD/ODD caddy (to change your DVD drive as HDD slot)

Our friends who bought Asus N56VZ recently seem to be not too happy with the quality of they gear:

"PS. ASUS IS SERIOUSLY F***ED UP THE N56 IN MALAYSIA, GO GET LENOVO Y480/580 IF YOU DON'T WANT TO RISK GETTING A FAULTY LAPTOP." - http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/2386961

To be honest I almost ended up buying n56, but i bought Lenovo Y480 due to two reasons: budget, and mobility (N56 is a bit too big/heavy/bulky for me to lug it in and out everyday). for y480, it would almost be perfect if not for the glossy screen it has (compared to the matte display of n56).

Asus has a winner in N56VZ in terms of design - man, it IS beautiful. Compared with my new Lenovo, my colleague even thought I was still using my old HP 520 before I pointed it out to him - it is so ordinary looking. Unfortunately for Asus, they didn't backup a good design by QA.

As for my Lenovo, it has a plain Jane outlook, but so far am very happy using it, will be even better if I move the hdd to dvd slot, and/or add a SSD...
