Check these laptops:
Samsung NP300E5X-S02IN Laptop (2nd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ DOS/ 1GB Graph) vs Samsung NP300E5V-A02IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 2GB/ 500GB/ DOS): Compare Computers: Flipkart.com

I will recommend that u increase your budget to 35k & get one of these:
Samsung NP370R5E-S06IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ Win8/ 2GB Graph) vs Samsung NP350E5C-S01IN Laptop (3rd Gen Ci3/ 4GB/ 750GB/ Win8/ 1GB Graph) vs Lenovo Ideapad Z585 (59-347937) Laptop (APU Quad Core A8/ 4GB/ 1TB/ Win8/ 2.5GB Graph): Compare Co

If u are a student, u will play games sometimes, so GPU will come in handy. Moreover powerful GPU is required for higher level of AutoCAD too

mate graphic card doesnt matter here update 32k max budget want 3rd gen i5

I need autocad for study now so HD 4000 should suffice?

BTW thanks for reply!
to increase budget i have to wait 2 month more

Ya that should suffice, but you may regret, not having dedicated GPU afterwards, just like one of my friends.....

is this good for me?

Absolutely.
Beautiful looks(atleast for my tastes)
Full 101 Keys keyboard
3rd gen i5

All crterion satisfied
hence deal finaled..
look for it locally you may get it for 1-2k less (that can be spent on accessories)

surely search locally thanks guys for help will spent rest money for cooling pad any suggetion around 0.8k

and also what about haswell lappies? when they will be available wii they fit in my budget

1 good advice don't spend much on cooling pad...
I doesn't boost cooling by much(at peak loads) maybe 500-600 is good enough..

Haswell i3 isn't yet launched(AFAIK) & i5 3rd gen itself is barely adjusted in sub 34k category so it is OUT of PICTURE for a while

Yes i read your post about going for i3 and not A8, but i can vouch for this laptop that you won't be feeling dissatisfied with the performance on this.

Before anyone starts their rant about going for i5 instead of A8, i should mention I have personally bought this laptop for a friend of mine 4 days back, and it works great, I have used an i5 laptop as well, they are better, but not worth the extra 5-8k (if you want the other specs to remain same, 1TB, 6GB)

My last question
Lenovo Essential G580 (59-358263) Laptop (3rd Gen Ci5/ 4GB/ 500GB/ DOS) vs Dell Vostro 2520 Laptop (3rd Gen Ci5/ 4GB/ 500GB/ Linux): Compare Computers: Flipkart.com
So now I am confuse between this two laptops please someone help to decide if possible give pros and cons of both.
My priority...
Performence>durability>After sales services>Warrenty.
I heared that dell has best consumer support in laptops and all other bards dont provide better A.S.S.

Lenovo one..
btr durability

what about this

G580 has full 101 key keybord(i.e is complete with numeric keypad)..
I couldn't find any more

R

Some more differences which I noted are, according to the specs on Flipkart..

Lenovo B480-59-343081 .......... Lenovo G580 (59-358263)

14 inch Matte screen ............... 15.6 inch Glossy screen
500 GB 7200 RPM HDD ............. 500 GB 4500 RPM HDD
2GB DDR3 RAM ....................... 4GB DDR3 RAM(Both having extra slot for expanding further)
4 USB ports ............................ 3 USB ports
Accutype keyboard ................... Normal Chiclet Keyboard
i5 3210m CPU ......................... i5 3230m CPU

hey I ordered from FK but still not even shipped from their centres, Called them they are telling it is out of stock now so where can i find it now what to do
found it on snapdeal but is it reliable for buying laptops
Or Please suggest trustable shop on lamington road or in mumbai to buy G580.

R

Although I have no prior experience of shopping with Snapdeal but it is considered quite safe and I think comes at No.2 after Flipkart.that being said most of the products there are sold by third party sellers so some of them can be bad..This G580
is coming for Rs.32900, cheapest on the net..I think you can buy from them on COD..Nothing can go wrong that way..Rest it is upto you.

Ok and if there is any defect in product when it arrives then what can i do
What is policy of snapdeal for laptops

PrimeABGB, theitwares & also check this Find a dealer - Locate a Store | Lenovo | (IN)

R

You should check their return policy and similar stuff..Ask them questions also before buying..I mean contact them on twitter, fb etc...Though Snapdeal is legit and quite reliable but still you can never be sure of online shopping, even in the case of flipkart..People file hundreds of complaints against flipkart as well as snapdeal..Or you can always try the safer way of buying from a retailer..I am also going to buy a lenovo laptop soon but will first check the laptop in a store and then will decide where to buy depending upon the best price.

^^Yeah very often dealers sell stuff cheaper than on9

OK guys will pay a visit to prime, itwares is closed untill 6 july thanks guys for valueable replys

R

It's available for Rs.33588 on Infibeam, another reliable one..Here it is Lenovo Essential G580 (59-358263)
These three sites are the kings of online shopping in India right now,
and of course ebay is great too but that is a little different thing..
So make the best choice, hope you get a solid product and do post the price here when you ask from retail shops.I will get an idea.

ok thanks
@ mods Close this thread now.
Will post reviw with pics sooon.
thanks guys you rocks
