AMD vs Intel (alien.top)

Hey Guys, I'm an intel guy but all my research says that AMD is the way to go for battery life and performance. I plan on buying the base model of either. The month or two wait is not an issue for me, so I'm just worried about performance and battery life, or quirks (battery drain etc...). Any suggestions would be helpful.

I can say that I'm getting 10 hours with reasonable screen brightness with the 7840u. Samsung 990 pro is my SSD but people claim the SK Hynix one is really power efficient.

Honestly, both are pretty close. If you care at all about graphics, you want the AMD. If the battery is all you care about, they are tied a bit.
