The size of RAM is same of all the three computers. Disk capacity of ASUS ZenBook Flip UX360CA-DBM2T is higher compared to the other two laptops. Dell Inspiron i7359-8404SLV and Lenovo Yoga 710 15 have same number of expansion slots which is more compared to ASUS ZenBook Flip UX360CA-DBM2T. The Intel Core i7-6500U\'s clock speed is much higher than Core M 6Y30 and is about 9% faster than the IntelCore i5-6200U. Although the entire three products seem to have great features, I would suggest Dell Inspiron i7359-8404SLV which has much higher processing speed compared to the other two laptops.
