Hello, This laptop is going to be used for surfing the web, movies some gaming. Between the 2, which would be best for the above purposes? Which would give the best battery life?

for gaming the A8 for the better graphics core,
for cpu intensie tasks go with the i5 but nothing you listed would be that demanding.
