Which of these laptops looks better?

[PistolSlap]

Hello, I have a Dell laptop as shown below, and I’m finding the CPU has a hard time running even more than one moderately intensive program at once, so I’m wanting to upgrade. I’ve been suggested a couple of builds, which do you think looks better?

Dell Latitude E7250
VIDEO: Intel(R) HD Graphics 5500 (1366x768x32b)
CPU: Intel(R) Core™ i5-5300U CPU @ 2.30GHz
RAM: 8G
HDD: 250GB SSD

I only use this for writing and browsing, mostly. Some Photoshop and Audition. So what’s important to me is a fast SSD, enough RAM and CPU to be able to work comfortably, but nothing outrageous.

These are the ones being recommended:

Ok, is that for any technical reason? I’m looking for technical superiority, not just visual aesthetics
Thanks!

Not sure what is going on with the links but they won`t work for me here or at your thread on BC, see attachment;

Thanks for that (y)

The VivoBook has the edge over the Aspire for me as well. has a bigger SSD and the Ryzen 5 edges out the i5 1135G7 in the benchmarks here
