Both will work perfectly for Forex, movie watching, and photo editing

CPU performance on both laptops are similar Intel is slightly better in single thread but AMD is better in multitasking:

But if you plan sometimes play in games on AMD games will be have around 2 x more FPS

iGPU R5 M330 inside AMD is refreshed R5 M255 and FPS in games will be slightly above the to this results:

About i5 iGPU Intel HD 5500 performance is still a lot weaker compared to iGPU R5 M330 inside AMD but faster than intel HD 4400 inside i3

So should I buy the acer laptop as I am not interested in gaming. Just doubtful about the brand.

On any from this laptops you will be fine.
With this price range laptops have similar quality.
