Hi all

Advice much appreciated

Argos are selling both above laptops which I quite like the look of, the spanner in the works is the OLED option

I tend to do usual office work daily, stream TV, and might do some occasional light gaming, graphics not mega important to me

My worry is that OLED might be extremely reflective, however, and in the past I have returned a laptop for the same reason as I found it mega distracting - this wasn't an OLED screen, just glossy and was 6 or so years ago so things may have changed?

Does anybody have any general opinions on these 2 laptops, and could shed any light on whether OLEDs are very reflective in this price range

Many Thanks
