Are you planning to use the laptop display for work or will you be connecting to an external display setup?
If it's the latter, I'd go with the best hardware you can find. But if you're using the display for work, the Aero is a decent option but I would try finding a Ryzen 6000 or Intel 12th Gen option if possible.
