Hello guys,
I wish to choose between 2 laptops for university, my budget is around 700- 800 $.
The use of the laptops would be only for programming/music/youtube etc...
No gaming at all, I have my pc for that.
Therefore I am required to have an i5-i7 cpu, atleast 8gb of ram, good display and long battery life.
I though about these 2 laptops:

ASUS ZENBOOK UX330UA
Pros: Long battery life; Affordable price; Bright, colorful display; Accurate audio

Cons:Stiff, uncomfortable touchpad; Lots of bloatware; Can't charge over USB Type-C
according to : https://www.laptopmag.com/reviews/laptops/asus-zenbook-ux330ua

LENOVO THINKPAD E470
Pros: Decent build
Excellent keyboard and touchpad
Slightly above average browsing battery runtime
An IPS panel suitable for more than just office work

Cons:Limited storage upgradability (no M.2 SSD slot)
No LED keyboard backlight
A bit on the hefty side for a 14-incher

I'd like to hear your opinion on those 2 laptops, and maybe suggest somethign else?
