Hi,

I am going to study and I need a proper laptop.
I made a comparison and this is the result:

I don't know which one to choose.
I really like the lenovo because of it's speakers and good built quality, but the acer has 16 Gb of RAM.
Which laptop would you choose?
I can choose another brand or model with the same specifications, but then I won't get a cashback.
I hope someone can help me.
Thanks in advance

The ASUS has double the RAM and a faster hard drive in it, that's why the ASUS. According to the reviews the ROG has an aluminum lid, not plastic, don't see anything about concerns about the ROG quality, it should be as reliable as any other model.
I'd probably go with the first ASUS, the quality is same as Lenovo. If you want good speakers, you can get a set of smallish bluetooth ones for about $40-50 for good sound from a small size.

Thanks for your reply.
I read a review about the asus but they didn't recommend it because of it's built quality (very fragile because of the plastic chassis).
But why wouldn't you choose for Lenovo? Why is Asus better? And what's the best brand to go for. MSI?
Thanks again! :)

Among those options you provided, ASUS GL552 is better, yet do you think about another choice such as MSI GE62? GE62 is great if you can really touch and use it.
