Both run the identical Ryzen 5 7430U with Radeon graphics, the same 16GB of DDR4 memory, a 512GB M.2 NVMe drive, 2.5G Ethernet, Wi-Fi 6 and the same three-year warranty, so performance is essentially a wash. Geekom A5 Pro (Ryzen 5 16GB + 512GB) counters with an all-aluminium chassis in place of the standard A5's plastic-and-metal-frame body, and a slightly thinner, more compact footprint, but it loses the 2.5 inch drive bay in the process. Buy Geekom A5 (Ryzen 5 16GB + 512GB) if you want the extra storage bay and a lower price; buy Geekom A5 Pro (Ryzen 5 16GB + 512GB) if an all-metal build and a smaller footprint matter more than the third storage slot.
