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.

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)
QUOTE(storm88 @ Jul 3 2014, 07:07 PM)
Pros: a. Very attractive price for the said performance b. Backlid keyboard c. Very good cooling capability d. Slim body and low in weight (2.5KG incl external DVD Drive) e. JBL Audio and Douby Digital Plus support
Cons: a. Very little upgrade option b. the color c/d abit low for the screen c. brightness abit low

Guys, are there any place that i can walk in and buy the Y510p? my lappy just broke down and need to fly tomorrow T_T
or are there going to be some newer Y series coming that i should wait?
Thanks!
u can walk in to Lowyat plaza or COD with resellers in garage sales to get Y510p.
If u can wait till next month, then u might probably see some newer laptops with GTX8xxM. Its worth to wait for next generation Maxwell gpu, buy when u really need it.
Upcoming model with new designs and layout like: Y50/ i7-4700HQ/ GTX860m/ red backlit KB/ FHD MSI GE60/ i7-4700HQ/ GTX860m/ Dynaudio/ multi-color backlit/ FHD
GTX860m 3Dmark11P score on par with GTX770m according to benchmarks in Chinese forum.

It seems that Lenovo will position their Y series in different market segment with Y430p/GTX850m, Y530p/GTX850m and Y50/GTX860m, Y40. Y530p & Y430p look like the sucessor of Y510p & Y410p, the more portable series are Y50 & Y40. Wish Lenovo will bring more affordable variants of Lenovo Y series to benefit the budget gamers.

Y50/GTX860m/i7 is coming soon to MY, stay tuned.

I guess Y50 will be price according to its market position and local market competition. It will be overprice if lack of competition from other OEMs like whats happen in China last year, eventually they lost some of their market share to US set grey importer and local OEM HASEE using rebranded Clevo gaming series with much lower and reasonable price. This year, Y50 pricing in China is more reasonable due to stiff competition from other OEMs.
Some of the new laptop(ie GE60, RE15..) already upgraded to GTX860m from GTX765m with apprx. the same SRP. In US, Y50/GTX860m(US1399) and Y510p/GT755m(US1369) SRP before discount is around the same. It seems that US replace Y510p with Y50 around the same SRP.
Fyi, its selling in Singapore around SG1799 with 16GB and bunch of freegift.
Upcoming next generation Y series sexy Y50 with powerful spec below ETA early July 2014 in MY, stay tuned.
Lenovo Y50-70, i7-4710HQ, GTX860m, (15.6" 1920x1080 anti-glare), 8GB, 1TB, red backlit KB, W8.1, 2 yrs Price around RM3.9-4k More info in http://on.fb.me/SPPsEa Pre order is available in garage sales.
Wonder any other affordable variants of Y50 price around 3k.
p/s I'm not a seller, pls check in garage sales.

Upcoming next generation Y series Y50-70, portable dual fans gaming powerhorse with maxwell gpu GTX860m. Stay tuned. We suggest to wait for official local set with spec below and 2 yrs warranty support. Beware of grey imported set from US with 1 yr warranty but no warranty support in MY.
spent couple of minutes check the seller, looks like not a legit seller
Price is too good to be true and look like grey imported set(AP set) from US with 1 yr warranty BUT no warranty support in MY. Its safer to wait for official locat set with 2 yrs local warranty support for peace of mind.
