Hey guys, soon I'll buy a new notebook to replace my old one.
Should I go with Asus X550IU or Acer E5-475G (i7 variant)?
Sorry for my bad English
Thanks

New Asus X556UR owner here. My simple answer, ACER. Now, I may be biased because of the lack of customer service, borderline idiotic CS reps, mis-representation, poor exterior quality, and... should I go on? Needless to say, I will be returning this unit and going with a different brand shortly (within my 30 return policy of course).

If you have the opportunity, def go to a store and do some hands on comparison. See what you are personally comfortable with. Your investment, you should take the extra time to check it out. Don't just go by the specs on various websites, though it's a good place to narrow down the options, when you get to the final 2 or 3, go and see it in person, play with the keyboard, check the layouts, check the quality.

It's different in my country, lol. Asus CS is about the same as Acer, and Asus warranty is much longer. And the reason why ask that question is because I don't know what I should pick. Should I go with FX 9830P with RX 460 or i7 7500u with GT 940MX?
Thanks for the answer btw.
