Cant really get a full HD screen in 50k.

Lenovo z510 is listed as having one but I doubt whether it does.

Also, please elaborate your needs a little more if possible.

Get Z510, note that it doesn't have 1080p screen

My needs are explained in the first post. Nothing more; nothing less. I can stretch my budget for FHD. I watch lot of movies on laptop, thats why insisting on FHD. How much does the entry level FHD cost??

then find Lenovo y510p(i5) if you can locally. best for that price IMO.

If you can find Lenovo y510p i5 version locally , then without a second thought buy it even if it is costing 60k.
You will get a kickass full hd screen with a much much better gpu and a sexy red backlit keyboard for just 4-5k more.

But that is a big "IF" as it has been discontinued by lenovo and is pretty rare to find these days.

An i5 version of Y50 may or may not be in line to come, so waiting for it can be a bit painful.

Get z510 and enjoy. And if you can stretch by how much can you stretch your budget? .

Thanks for all the inputs. I'll enquire about Y510P locally. But I am bit sceptic about it, as it is not available online (amazon, flipkart, snapdeal). Even on Lenovo website it is not there. Same on thedostore site as well.
[MENTION=129348]shadow[/MENTION]: I can stretch my budget by 10K.

I would also like to add that; I am not at all into gaming. So ULV processor is also acceptable.

no point in spending 50-60k for a ULV over a M processor.
