Question Which one should I choose between these 2 Lenovo ones?

[mmp09]

I am interested in Lenovo laptop. Within V series there are two variants.

I don’t know the exact model numbers but amazon link shows that both have almost the same config. 8GB RAM, WiFi 6, 512GB SSD Pcie. Both support Windows 11 and both have 14Inch TN panel FHD.

Now what I have figured out is

Laptop 1 Lenovo v - 12th Gen Intel Core i3-1215U, DDR4 3200Mhz 8GB

Laptop 2 – Lenovo v - Ryzen 3 7320U, DDR5 5500Mhz 8GB

At the moment there’s no info available if RAM is upgradable or not but I am fine with max 8GB RAM.

Now Laptop 1 is slightly expensive than Laptop 2 by about 35- 40 USD.

Can you guide me which option would be better from speed and performance point of view. My end use is just normal computing, Youtube, Chrome browser, MS Office and so. No gaming or high end graphics intensive work or anything like video editing etc. Just general computing.
Thanks.

Both meet your basic needs, as described, and for those purposes performance will be very similar.

Personally, I would lean toward the AMD version, especially if slightly less expensive.
