    This review says that the y510p has a matte display and an i7-4702MQ processor:
    Lenovo IdeaPad Y510p Review & Rating | PCMag.com

    Lenovo's page only mentions glossy displays and the i7-4700MQ:
    IdeaPad Y510p High-Performance 15.6" Multimedia Laptop from Lenovo | Lenovo (US)

    I know in the past sometimes people got y510p's unexpectedly with a matte display, but since this was a review unit, I'm wondering if Lenovo is thinking of more officially offering a matte display that someone could specifically order. If they do this for the y510p, maybe they would also do it for the y410p...

    " If they do this for the y510p, maybe they would also do it for the y410p... "

    The Y410p supports matte panels if you install them yourself, you could take a look at the HMM.

    Yeah...I'm just leery of the warranty issues (in addition to technically not messing it up and the extra costs). Thanks for the tip, though.
