Asus Vivobook has avg build quality especially touchpad which I found to be even a bit below avg. Vivobook pro have better build quality & vivobook S series has somewhere in between of these two. Try finding similar models in lenovo. HP & Dell. Also, no matter which brand you buy always get at least 2 years(preferably 3) extended warranty with ADP(accidental damage protection).

Mac is usually about build quality + OS experience + battery life + long term reliability, but it is very high priced and repairs are costly when out of warranty.

If you are into apple eco system, a mac is indispensable. Handsoff itself is too good, not mentioning the rest.

If you are not, then get windows.

Mac v/s Windows boils down to the softwares you need to use on it. For example, an awful lot of accounting software (e.g. Tally) does not work on Mac. I need Powershell that is not on Mac. If you are only going to use it for web-browsing / media consumption then by all means go with a Mac. The M1/M2 processors are fantastic in terms of speed and battery life. If you use a Mac responsibly (i.e. not plonking it down on a mattress / bed, keeping it dust free, not eating junk (chips, namkeen) while using the laptop, not touching the screen or rubbing it with wet cloth) it will last a long time.
