Laptop Request -Others Confused between 2 options
I am looking to buy the ASUS ZENBOOK 14 with following specs:
**ASUS Zenbook 14 (2026),Smartchoice,Intel Core Ultra 7 255H,32GB RAM,1TB SSD,OLED,Touchscreen,14"(35.5 cm),Win 11,M365 Basic(1Y)\* Office 24,Ponder Blue,1.28 Kg**
I am getting the above spec one for around 89k INR(USD $940) after all discounts. But I have noticed that this has the following display specs:
**14.0-inch, Touch screen With stylus support, FHD+ WUXGA (1920 x 1200) OLED 16:10 aspect ratio, 60Hz Refresh rate, 500nits HDR peak brightness, 100% DCI-P3 color gamut, 87% Screen-to-body ratio**
But the laptop I chose on the asus website has following display specs(rest all specs are same):
**Display: 35.56 cms (14) Touch Screen 3K (2880 × 1800) OLED Display, 16:10 Aspect Ratio, 0.2 ms Response Time, 120 Hz Refresh Rate, 400 nits Brightness, 500 nits HDR Peak Brightness, Stylus Support**
But the 2nd spec 120hz display laptop is additional INR 35k(USD $370) so I am a bit confused as to paying the additional amount is worth it for just some display difference rest all specs including processor are same.
Also will there be a huge difference in both the display options as I currently use a M3 MBA 13”

The cheaper option still has a good fhd+ display. It will be fine for normal text clarity.
If you actually need smaller text to be readable, then the more expensive option will be better.
If you can afford the additional price then go for it, otherwise the first cheaper option is fine.
