Hello @weldphaser,
Thank you for contacting Intel Embedded Community.
I think you can try comparing them:
https://ark.intel.com/content/www/us/en/ark/compare.html?productIds=129941,193559
But both processors have some differences and also are aimed for different purposes. For example TDP, one is 35 W while the other one is 15 W, the less TDP may help in a longer use using the same battery, turbo frequency is higher in one model than the other and graphics frequency is different too, but I think you may have good results with both processors.
You can try to compare in the market for similar computers and check prices to have a better idea if the deal from your friend may be worth for you or if it may be best to look in another place, but I can recommend that if you buy something, it may be what you like better and if it fit your needs.
This is making a quick search in Amazon:
Or you can check for newer models:
Best regards,
