UX330 VS UX305. Which should i get?

The UX330 is faster, as it has 15w processors core i processors vs ~5w core m in the UX305.

But it depends on the usage you are planning and the prices of both laptops.

I am looking at them on amazon, and the UX305 has a Core i5 6200U, and the UX330 has a 7200U.

The price is 20 dollars different, and is the ux330 a cheap plastic?

Sorry, I've checked the ux305fa which has an core m.
As far as I could read, the Ux330 says "solid aluminium" build. I would go with the ux330 just for the newer cpu. It has a faster integrated gpu and the price difference isn't very high (and you cannot upgrade that). Also it includes usb-c (Perhaps today it is no so useful, but perhaps in the future).
