look at asus x series. they offer metallic build, better keyboard and touchpad than the competition and also offer better specs for the same price. they are reliable and sturdy.

Don't go for Dell, battery backup is not good. Rather check Sony Vaio as suggested by @aroraanant, better than Dell anyways.

The samsung and dell are old gen i3.No use of that now...
The x53ta-sx096d uses a6 which has better graphic performance.
