Purchasing from Lamington Road. Have actually researched a bit and I am undecided between Dell Inspiron 15r SE (i7) and Samsung NP550P5C-S02IN. Was definitely going for latter till I saw that lots of people are suffering from heating and throttling issues. Is the Dell special edition top model (full hd screen) available easily on Lamington road? I'm confused, basically. Help me out.

Dunno, but dell india website has mentioned 1080p screen, check it out.

Well I thought it was only for the 17" model and not on 15".

It must have been updated recently for the Indian version.

Ended up buying samsung for 58.5k. So far it's running pretty well. Trackpad sucks though.

Congrats for the Sammy , its a nice laptop for that price segment.THough it really suffers from throttling and frequent heat-up issues when playing high-end games.
Use a notebook cooling pad and it will help .
