Upcoming model
Push innovation to the edge, meet the new generation XPS15. The world's smallest, lighter 15" laptop with infinity edge-to-edge display, Skylake proc and GTX960m coming soon. Wish the cheaper variant with non-touch FHD come soonest. Laptop refresh with skylake proc is slow due to limited supply, expected to see more skylake laptops soon.
Next generation Y series Y50-70, portable dual fans gaming powerhorse with maxwell GTX860m. Beware of grey imported US set(AP set) with 1 yr warranty BUT without local support as reported
Tips & recommend upgrade options for peace of mind: Register the 2 yrs carry-in warranty on-line with supporting docs HERE after 1 to 1 exchange period. Else it will default as 1 yr from manufacture date. U can ask reseller to help.

The Most crucial part of the whole review. The TEMPERATURE of the laptop. At TECH ARMORY, we had sold more than 1k units of Gaming laptop thru out the years. But NONE can provide such good cooling capabilities for gaming laptop below RM4000. Both chips produce 73'C for GPU and 79'C for CPU when burning with FURMARK. Meanwhile while idle, CPU core max at 50'C and GPU at 40'C (All test took place at ambient of 29'C)

Did anyone else bought any notebook from devour at this thread?
I have bought a Y410p since last year June together with the warranty upgrade.
Until now haven't receive any news, already inboxed him over the issue multiple times, everytime tell me Lenovo haven't process and other reasons.
Just checked on Lenovo's site, still showing 2 years warranty.
Saw a dispute thread on him as well.
I suggest you check with Lenovo website about warranty upgrade period. Usually, warranty upgrade can be done within certain days from purchase. I am not sure for Lenovo, but Illegear is within 90 days.

Already dropped an email support to them. I am just wondering if anyone else got problem dealing with Lenovo warranty upgrade.

Better call them directly, faster. I dont think warranty upgrade should take that long period (7 months for your case). Right now you talk to Lenovo first, make sure prepare enough info to them to trace your laptop purchase, if Lenovo reply you "warranty upgrade in progress", you can complaint Lenovo. If Lenovo say your laptop "receive no warranty upgrade since purchase", then you can raise a dispute against devour.
I purchased my Y400 last year May also together with the warranty upgrade from devour.
In the past few months, I had tried pm and whatapps him . He only will replied "Ok" , "Will check for you" , "Almost done".
In the end , no news about the warranty extend from him until now.
I am afraid the v3 thread will become dispute thread against devour.....
Just call Lenovo directly, if you confirm as I what I write on last post, then raise a dispute thread against devour. Bcs all of you have paid money for upgrade warranty

devour messaged me today saying that it will be updated after CNY. In the mean time, I am checking up with Lenovo to investigate on this issue.

Okay, good luck and hope you all can have warranty upgrade successfully
Does anyone here experienced blurred out display fonts in Windows 8.1 device manager running on Y510p? Tested both new units out of the box, same issue.
