Need advice on a laptop to buy

[carlos.vieira107]

Hi,

I am looking for a laptop for my girlfriend. She will use it mostly to write some documents and some photoshop. Having a longer battery life would also be important as she travels by train quite often. She does not have a lot of money to spend right now, so our budget is quite low.

We were looking at these laptops and we were wondering which ones would be better. (If you have some other suggestion we can also look into it)

HP Pavilion 14-bk009nl
Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5 GHz
8192 MB RAM
256 GB SSD
Intel HD Graphics 620
14 inch 1920 x 1080 px

HP Pavilion 14-bk002ne
Intel Core i5 7200U 2.5 GHz
12288 MB RAM
1000 GB HDD
nVidia GeForce 940MX
14 inch 1920 x 1080 px

Acer Aspire S13
Intel Core i3 6100U Skylake
13.3" LED 1920x1080 IPS ComfyView
4GB RAM DDR3L
Intel HD Graphics 520
M.2 SSD 128GB

Acer Swift 1
Intel Pentium Quad Core N4200 Apollo Lake
13.3" LED 1920x1080 IPS
RAM 4GB DDR3L
Intel HD Graphics 505
SSD 128GB

Thank you for your help!

Hello Carlos!

The first one, the Pavilion 14-bk009nl seems to be able to deliver the best performance. It´s battery should last 7 hours with wifi web surfing. The Acer Aspire S13 has similar battery time, weaker processor and often comes with loud cooling fans. The Acer swift has a weak processor, I would not recommend that one for photoshop.

Buy her the first one!
