Verdict
Pick Model B if you need a single, versatile zoom that covers wide-angle to super-telephoto without changing lenses and can accept slightly dimmer low-light performance. Model A stays the better choice if you prioritize a brighter f/4 maximum aperture at the wide end and prefer to save 8 EUR.
