I have purchased a laptop from http://www.hclstore.in/ and I must recommend them as their products and ultrabooks are best and their prices also very affordable , also thier technical support is very helpful.
never buy any home series laptop. whether it is dell, hp or any other brand. they r all horibble. never buy hp compaq, dell inspiron series. worst. exactly after warranty period it started to show problems.
I have used Zenith, Acer, Dell and HP laptops. Dell was the most painful of all machines. within the first 6 months it would get so hot that it would force close itself. And the applications that I was running was Winword. I bought a cooling pad still no go. Took it to Dell and they replaced the processor fan still it would keep on shutting down every now and then, finally I had to move over to another brand. Dell is one of the most horrible products that u can throw ur money at. Acer lasted really well though it was not that fast when I would compare it with a zenith machine. HP machine is from which I am typing this machine and looks pretty decent to me, though they are very costly in after sales service and I too had to get my lappy serviced once outside the warranty.
Just google this: "Lenovo G570 hinge". Pages of pages u will get same complaint from UK to Canada to India to US. And globally same response. My hinge cracked withinn 2 mnth of purchase. No support; they say no warranty for this; 5k to rectify; and blame me of possible mishandling. Shameless guys not only in Hyd or Kolkata, I got to know identical problems and same response the world over. Seems LENOVO trains their guys as such to hide their faulty models. And where are the service centres?????????????/
please please avoid compaq laptops. I have had a terrible experience. I know at least 10 or more if not 20 people who have had the same issue. It starts showing problems the day the warranty is over. The company then suggests you to replace the motherboard which costs as much as buying a new one.
15.6 inch display, Core i7 (3rd gen), 8 GB RAM, 1 TB HDD, NVidia 630M 2 GB graphics, chicklet keyboard, matt finish with ice-cool technology - it is a steal at Rs. 56k. I am using it for last 6 months and works really well for all my daily requirement and gaming. Plus, Asus is possibly the second most reliable brand in laptops world-wide after Apple iMacs. Possibly Asus didn't pay for this article :).
hp's service is the worst one.... my 6 mnths old hp laptop has a keyboard issue which is still not solved despite multiple complaints...so never go for hp......

It seems like that you have not used Dell.. your experice with HP will change if you start using Junks called Dell

used both dell and HP.. worst service for both. Dell - HDD crash and need replacement just after 1 yr, extended warranty cost more than cost of HDD.
