Confused between hp envy and dell xps

[ohm.patel1]

I am really confused which to buy-
1. Hp envy 15-3017tx - 76k
2. Dell xps 15 - 75k (customized)

The differences....
1. Hp has 8 cell battery whereas dell 6 cell battery.
2. Hp has amd mobility radeon 7690M(1gb) whereas dell has nvidia gt 540M(2gb)
3. Dell has a better speakers.
4. Hp is more light and slim than dell.
5. Dell has i7-2760qm(2.40ghz, turbo boost upto 3.50ghz) whereas hp has i7-2670qm(2.20ghz, turbo boost upto 3.10ghz).
6. Hp has very small arrow keys as compared to dell.
7. Hp has very sticky keys(in engadget) which are uncomfortable to type.
8. Am getting free goodies (Bag, bluetooth mouse and bluetooth headset) with dell whereas only bag with hp.

Please help me out i have to buy a laptop ASAP.

I actually find the keyboard on the new xps significantly inferior to the hp chicklet keyboard, when it comes to typing. But yeah, the hp has half-sized up & down arrow keys.

You know the pros and cons of the two machines. Now its up to you to decide. Only you know your preferences, usage, style etc.
Better speakers Vs Portability
Better GPU Vs better CPU
etc

I would be carrying the laptop a bit. Will do casual gaming but good games. I will do a lot of ics programming. Would be watching movies a lot. So please suggest me and also 6gb or 8 gb ram....

If you will be carrying it more then I think you should concentrate on the portability.And also the battery back up will matter a lot in this case.
Apart from that I have used XPS a lot and its a great laptop, I have never seen its user complaining about anything, on the other hand I don't have any experience of Envy so can't comment on that

Comment on flipkrt of saying something of upgradable display.

Ps: for 77k they should have given full hd.
