Final choice of laptop? Acer vs Asus?

[AdamantMC]

Hey, I've been deliberating on this forum on what laptop to purchase for a budget of around £500. I ended up yesterday deciding on this ASUS, and was going to order it tonight, but I've just seen an ACER for £50 more, but some of the specs seem better. I'm wondering whether the specs are worth the extra £50, or whether ASUS is a better brand than ACER in general so I should stick with my original choice!

ASUS: https://www.amazon.co.uk/ASUS-X555UJ-15-6-Inch-Laptop-Notebook/dp/B015OG3MMW/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1461948185&sr=8-1&keywords=asus+x555uj

ACER: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Acer-Aspire-V3-574G-15-6-Inch-Notebook/dp/B016B9134U/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1461948204&sr=8-1&keywords=acer+v3+574g

Thanks for any replies! Any suggestions are welcome as well! I'm going to mainly use the laptop for web browsing/social media/entertainment/video streaming, not for gaming except the occasional online game! Thanks again!

The ASUS does have better specs, and I find ASUS to have less problems. but in the end it's your own personal preference and what you want to spend.

The Asus, better CPU, will keep you happier longer. Plus better quality and will prob last longer
