Understand what I said
SSD in m.2 port obviously will come in full range of capacity.
But Y510p don't leave enough space for those longer m.2 SSD (the bigger capacity the SSD, the longer the card).

if you check Intel spec sheet on all the Haswell laptop CPU released so far, you will see that Haswell mobile CPU (HQ, MQ, U, Y) only support DDR3L or LPDDR3.
http://ark.intel.com/

sticking 1.5v DDR3 into Haswell spec laptop is asking for trouble

for WiDi to work, you need Intel HD.
Y500 definitely will not support WiDi since Intel HD4000 is turned off.
Y510p single GPU spec can run with HD4600 which support WiDi. But for WiDi to work, you also need Intel Wireless card. iinm, Y510p in Malaysia is not spec with Intel wireless card

•Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 1000, 1030, 2200, or 2230
•Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N 2200 for Desktop
•Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6200, 6205, 6230, or 6235
•Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N 6205 for Desktop
•Intel® Centrino® Wireless-N + WiMAX 6150
•Intel® Centrino® Advanced-N + WiMAX 6250
•Intel® Centrino® Ultimate-N 6300
•Intel® Dual Band Wireless-N 7260
•Intel® Dual Band Wireless-AC 7260
•Intel® Wireless-N 7260
•Broadcom* BCM43228
•Broadcom* BCM43241
•Broadcom* BCM4352

These are the wireless card that officially will work with WiDi.

Yes. Yes. Yes.

DDR3L, 1.35V

Yup, that is the main negative point of Y series in Malaysia.
For users who are not professional Photoshop user, I think it is still ok.
For pro / semi-pro user who really want colour accuracy, better top up a bit and go for illegear RE-15

Also maybe because of competition
MSI
GE60-2OC, i7-4700MQ + Nvidia GT750M(GDDR5) + (1920x1080; anti-glare)@RM3099,8GB, 750GB(7200rpm), W8, steel series KB (apparently RSP drop by RM500 )

sifu, any comment about these threads?

So far from what I read, it really depends on the specific Haswell CPU
And has yet to come across Haswell spec laptop that come with 1.5v RAM out of factory

nada, tak ada, elek ....

Care to show us the source that state Y510P US spec has mSATA port?

Ajul, I understand you are a reseller and you sell Lenovo Y series AP set, and I appreciate your input.
So far the comment on this thread about Lenovo Malaysia not entertaining warranty claims on Y series AP set is fact.

On the other hand, the service level of Lenovo SC in Malaysia, which you alluded to, really depends on which SC users go to. In Klang Valley, lots of complaints are directed toward the SC on LYP, but SC at IBM PJ has been regarded as good by users.
Moreover, for Y series, buyer of local set can upgrade warranty to 3 year on site, and that service is good (good response time. I have make use of 1 service call on my Y580 recently), whereas buyer of AP set don't have that option.

I think any potential buyers of Lenovo Y series will like to know all these info before making their purchase.
They will be able to weigh all the pro and con, and make the decision and bear with the consequence.

To all the re-sellers, good business.
To all the potential buyers, go in with your eyes wide open.

where do you plan to put it in?

read 1st post of this thread.

of course you could replace the HDD with SSHD (SSHD is just a normal HDD with build in SSD cache )
Seagate Momentus SSHD (1TB HDD + 64MB cache + 32G SSD) is < RM500.

you do notice you were asking from one right

(I mean devour is a re-seller)

At this rate, Lenovo Y series is going to lose the budget gaming laptop crown in Malaysia

Let's see if other brands also hike price. MYR is weak
But Y410p is totally not appealing anymore.
And Y510p, potential buyers may want to consider to spend only a bit more to get MSI or illegear/Clevo
