Both APUs are based on are based on AMD's Kabini APU using the Jaguar core. Those APUs are used for tablets and low end laptops.They are on average equivalent to Intel's Ivy Bridge generation Pentium CPUs. Therefore, they are basically good enough for basic tasks that are not very demanding.

The A6-5200 is the more powerful of the two and because the laptop already has Linux installed, that saves you time installing an operating system unless you are looking to install Windows on it.

I'm an Intel guy not AMD so I don't know much about AMD processors.
