Other difference include USB-C charging on the Dell with PD and another slot (?) for storage.
HP is all plastic build . The equivalent Dell is Inspiron 3000 series.
If above things do not matter to you then HP by all means.

Can HP Ram SSD be upgraded?
It can charge via USB-C but.it needs to be a certain wattage. My 25 Watt Samsung super fast charger would not charge it. I bought a RAVpower 65 watt charger and it charges both this laptop and my Note 10.
Nice. I had a dell xps 15 which charged via usb-c but it needed 130w otherwise the performance would be throttled. Hopefully this is not the case with this Inspiron.

The HP Ryzen 7 has a better processor (5-10% better on average), brighter screen, and a lower price. RAM and SSD are the same. Not sure about the upgrade ability on RAM and hard drive, but you can typically replace a hard drive on any laptop if you really want to.
If you have pre conceptions on build quality and brand you might chose this over the other. My wife is one of those who dislike HPs and has to have a Dell. I tell her the specs and price would suggest otherwise, but if it makes her more satisfied to see Dell instead of HP great! (The Placebo effect is real )
This is a solid deal, the differences in price and processor are marginal, if you think Dell is better go for it! I'm sure you'll be happy without sacrificing too much cash or too much of a performance drop.
Here are some comparisons on the processor.
