What to choose between Lenovo e31-70 and Acer Aspire V3-372-P84K: 13.3" + autonomy?

I understand that perhaps not quite a question for a toaster, but a couple of poor customized reviews did not clarify the situation.
I 'm going to take Lenovo E31-70 laptop in Celeron 3205u/4gb/500hdd configuration. I did not find possible reviews for this model, mainly either on ai3 or a stump. Interested in the opinion of the owners or those who have encountered the device: what are the indicators of battery life in different profiles. I'm going to use for field work - networks / small webdev. How bad is the processor for these tasks?
And you are also interested in autonomy and performance on Linux, how is it?
I would also like to feel the information security in my free time, did anyone have any pitfalls with kali?
WithActually, in principle, I decided on the purchase, I chose between Lenovo on Celeron and Acer on the stump 4405u, but the brand scared away and the price was 6 thousand higher. Or is it worth considering?
UPD. 22.02 After thinking about it, I decided to choose Acer, model
V3-372 -P84K, stump 4405u 2.1Ghz 2 cores with hyperthreading, 4Gb RAM, 500 hdd. The price is 29600. Of course, there is also a model with 6gb / i3 / 128ssd / 1920x1080 for 34000, but this is already too big a plus for the initial budget of 23-25k, and even so it is possible to reach i7-last_generation / 256ssd. In addition, at 13.3 "fullhd for a blind-sighted me, it will be rather a minus, because I worked at one time in fullhd on a 17-inch laptop and it was, of course, cool, but not always comfortable, especially now I see worse.
Pluces, it seems to me, the processor - 4 threads, higher frequency, 2 slots for RAM (the ability to upgrade memory cheaper), 4 battery cells (according to the reviews of a colleague, the owner of a similar Acer 331, autonomy 4-6 hours with video Internet, according to reviews men from a toaster - everything is better than two cells from lenovo), plus subjectively more successful connectors: 4 usb (2 pcs 2.0, 1 pc 3.0, 1 pc Type-C), one video - hdmi (instead of unnecessary VGA + HDMI). Cons - portable LAN-connector (with a cover, it can break), distrust of the Acer brand, according to reviews, a lower quality assembly, disgusting arrows on the keyboard. Unsubscribe after the purchase, maybe someone will be needed.
In this, thanks for the advice)))

Maybe someone will come in handy.
I bought the indicated Acer model, brought it home, opened it ... And I went nuts. I have not seen such disgusting matrices even in the cheapest Chinese phones. As a result, I went and changed it to the next P6ZD model - the same percentage, 6 RAM, 128 SSD, ips 1920x1080. +4000 rubles. Compared to 1366x768 TN - heaven and earth Although, of course, FullHD at 13.3" without scaling is too small.
Regarding autonomy - today I tested the maximum brightness from 20:00, the Wi-Fi did not turn off. Installing Visual Studio with downloading it via Wi-Fi, installing additional software, the old Icewind Dale toy - 2 hours of play, working in VS2015 - 2 hours of a simple desktop project. Parallel browsing. Now 0:42, writes the rest of 14 percent, the energy saving mode has turned on. The result is 5 hours of operation at maximum brightness with Wi-Fi turned on. OS - pre-installed Win10 Home SL.
I think if you reduce the brightness - it will stretch more. I wonder what will happen with power saving on Linux.

@sir_Maverick

kali? Do you like free wifi?))
In principle, it should be enough for 3 hours. But it's better to count on 2 hours.
