i'm in the midst of choosing between 1) dell inspiron 11 3000series 2-in-1 i3-4030U(4th gen) win8.1 4gb ram 500gb hdd rm2229
or
2) dell inspiron 13 7000 series 2-in-1 i5-5200U (5th gen) win8.1 8gb ram 500gb hdd hybrid drive rm3179
Which you think is good buy? 4th gen adn 5th gen processor any big difference? big performance difference between normal sata hdd and hybrid drive? My main criteria is portability. Is it worth to top up the difference to get the i5?

My main criteria is portability. Is it worth to top up the difference to get the i5?It really depends on your needs. portability wise Dell Inspiron 11 would be a much better choice, but I personally prefer at least 13" and above screen. Thanks for the reply. I think for portability wise, the 11" & 13" shouldn't be much difference in weight increase i guess. Processing wise, both i'm alright with it. I guess i'm asking for future proof so that the notebook can use for at least 3 years or more down the road.
