QUOTE(prasys @ Mar 15 2019, 01:53 PM) Probably a lot of backorders They just inform due to serious shortage of part. Din even contact me about the situation, just self update the lead time until I check the order. Sigh, got to look for other model as my current laptop already have buyer.

QUOTE(prasys @ Mar 15 2019, 03:59 PM) You wouldn't be charged , that one is pre-auth My card was only charged when they shipped it out - FYI It's actually deducted my credit on my card. But I think is still under pending transaction. Not often use card, so I'm not sure how's that difference. Instead of keep quite, I actually feel better if they try to offer me other model...

QUOTE(xcves @ Mar 15 2019, 04:09 PM) why y730 if i may ask.. besides thunderbolt 3 and rgb.. get y530 better. cheaper, both same 1050ti. build quality is decent also although plastic and not aluminium body like y730.. y530 has numeric keypads too. i dont see how y730 can justify its 1k more price than the y530.. Actually because of numberpad also, I do quite alot typing for work and a push left keyboard is not ideal for me. In this price range, the spec, design and cooling is almost perfect for my need.

QUOTE(ZM Fong @ Mar 15 2019, 04:24 PM) Y730 / Y740 has better cooling even though the cooling solution looks the same (Y530 / Y540 also has good cooling) Build material also different (if I were to choose, I'll definitely get Y730 TBH, if the price is OK and I have the budget) But have to admit that Y730 / Y740 is a bit overpriced If not mistaken Y740 starting price at 8k right. I did search around retail before place order to Lenovo Website, not much ppl carry Y730

QUOTE(sambest @ Mar 19 2019, 09:59 AM) Hi! I'm planning to buy Lenovo y530 from Lenovo website & it stated that my laptop will be shipped within 4 weeks. From your experiences, how many days actually you received you laptop? tqvm Yes, I cancel mine due to very much delay. Order at 18Feb, expecting ship out by end of April. The lead time will change without inform. For Y530, better buy in store i think? Friend of mine bought in store last week, price not much different from website.
