Lenovo Ideapad 510 or HP 250 G5, what should i buy?

[mohorab]

Hi,

I would like to buy a new laptop and i don't know what to chose. The new one will be used mainly for browsing activities, watching movies, a little Photoshop and NO gaming.

I found 2 laptops in my budget and i would like to ask which one should i get, taking into account that i want to keep it for as long as possible.

First one: Lenovo Ideapad 510, 15.6'', FHD IPS, Procesor Intel® Core™ i5-6200U (3M Cache, up to 2.80 GHz), 12GB DDR4, 1TB, GeForce 940MX 4GB

Second one: HP 250 G5, i5-6200U 2.3Ghz, 15.6'', Full HD, 8GB, 256GB SSD, Intel® HD Graphics 520

Please don't suggest any other models because where i live it is a little hard to find them, i only need to know between these 2 which one is better, sturdy and good for a long use.

Thanks.

a little photoshop? like hobbies or for work?
Like the second one better with the SSD

Not for work, just like a hobby, a little work on pictures made with camera, some adjustments nothing special.

Then the second one, don't see a reason for a dGPU GTX 940mx or 12GB ram. SSD is smaller, so as long as you save/backup your data somewhere, should be enough

I was not looking for the 12GB Ram or GPU, but i was in doubt because of the IPS display. Lenovo has an IPS display but the HP no. Will it make it a difference? It's not the problem the SSD because i can install one on Lenovo too.
