Both are equally bad. Search for a laptop with user upgradeable RAM and SSD. There’re many thin and light models on the market.
For RAM, laptops manufacturers overcharge a lot. E.g. HP asks $660 for 32GB RAM option. The market price for that amount of RAM is $120 for the equivalent of what HP offers (DDR4 2400), or $230 for much faster one (DDR4 3200).
For SSD, laptops manufacturers overcharge a lot as well (HP asks $762 for 1TB SSD option, Intel asks $100 for their 1TB 660P M.2 2280 NVMe), but it’s worse than just the cost. You’re unable to recover your data from a broken laptop. Also, unlike RAM, SSD technology advances very fast, they release new models which are both faster, larger and cheaper. I’m upgrading SSDs in my computers once in a year, even more frequently than GPUs.
