Hi all, I currently have an old Lenovo T440 which has the following specs:

Core i5 4300U / 1.9 GHz.
Win 10
8 GB RAM.
500 GB SSD

Lately for certain tasks it becomes slow.

Looking for something economical and with more power and bigger screen I found the following:

Laptop HP 17-cn2025nq cu procesor Intel® Core™ i5-1235U pana la 4.40 GHz, 17.3", Full HD, IPS, 16GB, 512GB SSD, Intel® Iris® Xe Graphics

or

Laptop Acer Aspire 5 A515-48M cu procesor AMD Ryzen™ 7 7730U pana la 4.5 GHz, 15.6", Full HD, IPS, 16GB DDR5, 512GB SSD

I like the first option better, but I think the second one is somewhat better in video (I don't know how much better). My daily tasks are WordPress, Word and using browsers a lot. Programming in CSS, Phyton and HTML but all basic. Occasionally I edit Gopro videos with Filmora 12, but I currently do that with the Lenovo and it's super slow. How bad is that Intel or AMD? I have a super powerful desktop so I don't plan to buy a gamer notebook.

Thanks
 
You should be good with either one of those two options.
Then I'll probably go for the HP even if I sacrifice some video I prefer a large screen and where I live there are few models in 17.3, although perhaps they are manufactured little. I didn't find any review of this HP laptop, can I add another SSD?
