Don't know.

just for the information,Acer laptops don't allow upgrading ram or hdd without voiding warranty(they put stickers etc in such a way) so you have to get any upgrades done at authorized service centre which costs extra.If buying an acer laptop,make sure to get any upgrade done at the day of purchase itself at acer authorized service centre.

HDD, ram upgrade of Helios 300 is easy. Upgrading the m.2 drive could void warranty. Don't know why acer has this crappy restriction.

I don't know about Helios 300(maybe because it is a higher end model it has less restrictions) but their low/budget end laptops come with sticker inside/around ram/hdd compartment making self upgrade almost impossible without voiding warranty.

In case you can wait for offers on gaming laptops, maybe wait till Republic Day. You should get GTX 1050 laptops for around 50k.

Otherwise, try to find this locally:

I don't think MSI provides international warranty in India for laptops purchased in Singapore.MX150 is another name for GT 1030 in laptop,you can check benchmarks of desktop 1030 to get an idea about its expected performance but for some real gaming a 1050Ti is minimum(whether desktop or laptop).In India 1060 laptops starts from at least 1lakh.

Yes, I am getting MSI warranty. MX150 is equivalent to GT1030. Starting price of GTX 1060 Laptops are 1lakh.
About the above MSI GL62VR 7RFX-848CN my friend brought from Singapore. Its 80K. Its for Sale.

You are not getting any warranty on internationally purchased MSI laptop in India.

MSI Support - Horrible

I think only Gigabyte gives International Warranty.

There are website who ship Laptops worldwide such as Xoticpc or ExcaliburPC. But do they include the import charges in Shipping charges ?
for e.g: USPS world wide shipping charge of $XXX amount will include the import duty or not

Still their service network is bad. Asus & MSI used to provide international warranty few years back but apparently they stopped it now. Dell seems to be the best option if purchasing outside. The warranty transfer is hassle free if you change countries. Also Dell's after sales are great.

I imported a SSD 4 years back from amazon UK & import duties were already charged while placing the order along with shipping charges. So it should be mentioned in the page just before you pay.

Also xotic & excaliburPC doesn't seem to be the best choice nowadays as Acer/Dell laptops are at similar or lower price.

As for the Laptop service I dont know but as for me regarding desktop service in case of MSI or Asus is top notch. I never had any trouble with any of the service guys until now.

I was talking about Gigabyte. MSI laptop after sales service is not as good as PC components, Asus has better service than MSI though.

It also depends upon city to city or service center to service center. Of course MSI might have bad reputation regarding laptop service in India.
