Hi, I'm deciding between these few laptops for sch/daily usage. Prefer 14", school requires at least 8GB RAM and with min. 2GB Dedicated Graphics, at least 256 GB of free hard disk space. Budget preferably ~SGD1.5k, weight <1.5kg and preferably good battery life for school usage. Would want it to last long because this will be my only computer device and not having to replace it every 2 years because of build quality issues would be great.

Acer Swift 3 Premium (SF314-55G-79PC) (SGD$1420.96 school price)
1.35kg
i7-8565U
8GB RAM
512GB PCIe NVMe SSD
MX150
3 yrs warranty

ASUS VivoBook S14 S430FN-EB114T / Icicle Gold (SGD$1498 school price)
1.4kg
i7-8565U Processor
8GM RAM (free upgrade to 16GB (8x2))
512GB PCIe SSD
MX150
2 yrs warranty

Any recommendation on which should I get?
 
the vivobook has bluetooth 4.2 vs. the Swift BT 5.0
2x USB2.0 + 1x USB3.0 + 1x USB-C 3.1 gen 1 vs. 2x USB 3.0 + 1x USB-C 3.1
micro sd card reader vs. SD card reader
carry case included

both should perform very similar, would check it personally in a store, especially the display, keyboard and feeling of the used materials.
