I would like to get quick opinions on this: Ultrabook HP Envy 6-1210sw (D2F32EA)
My budget: 1200$
Buying in: Poland
Picking it because I need a light and thin ultrabook for programing and light gaming.
It looks like a good laptop but the bottleneck is going to be your hard drive. If our definitions of light gaming are the same (Binding of Isaac, Civ 5 etc), I'd just get a Macbook Air for that price.
What else can you tell me about this?
HP's are plagued with overheating, bad build quality, and hardware failure a couple years after purchase. I don't recommend it.
What can you tell me about these?

It's hard to choose but I did some research and:
-Acer has higher resolution, more capable SSD (which I dont mind, anything above 128GB is good)
-Dell has faster CPU clock, but less capable SSD and outputs heat infront of the panel instead of it's back which is silly if you ask me.
Is there any other option that also looks decent and has a better CPU/GPU? (since as I said, anything above or equal to 128GB SSD and 1080p is fine with me)
Should I remind you? My budget is: 1200$ and I can import stuff from UK.
HP envies are pretty horrid, i get them all the time when the hinges come unglued from the lid.

- big touchpad,
- good, hybrid GPU so, I can also do some gaming,
- 128GB SSD, 12GB RAM but also has 2 upgrade slots, one for additional RAM and one for SSD/HDD,
- it doesn't have a touchpad with is kind of a con for me since I prefer using mouse

- CPU is also OK if you ask me
