What are you looking for in a laptop?

Personally if I had to pick between the two, I'd go with the 15.6" one but that's just because I hate big laptop screens. In fact, I hate it so much that I'd get this instead.

But yeah, you should specify what you're looking for/what sort of tasks you'd be using them for.

I am planning on using it for a lot of stuff such video editing, web design, some gaming. internet browsing so thats why i picked those 2 because they have quad core because i think i may need it for multi tasking.

To be fair, those both will struggle at rendering videos, playing higher end games, etc due to the fact both have no dedicated graphics memory.
