    so you want to buy a laptop to edit
  • 00:00:01
    videos whenever and wherever inspiration
  • 00:00:04
    strikes but what laptop should you buy
  • 00:00:06
    in 2024 if you stick around for the
  • 00:00:08
    entire video I'll give you some
  • 00:00:10
    recommendations that might surprise you
  • 00:00:12
    including options as low as $500 all the
  • 00:00:14
    way up to $7,000 in order for you to
  • 00:00:17
    make an educated purchase though I'd
  • 00:00:18
    like to discuss the most important
  • 00:00:20
    features to look for in a laptop so you
  • 00:00:22
    get the speed power and portability that
  • 00:00:24
    you need to make amazing videos without
  • 00:00:26
    breaking the bank or your back my name
  • 00:00:28
    is Anthony Gallow I run content cr.com
  • 00:00:30
    where we teach you how to shoot edit and
  • 00:00:32
    monetize professional videos let's
  • 00:00:37
    go laptops are handy tools in the video
  • 00:00:40
    editing workflow especially if you do a
  • 00:00:42
    lot of filming in the studio on location
  • 00:00:44
    or on the road the trouble is trying to
  • 00:00:47
    understand all the technical jargon used
  • 00:00:48
    to describe laptops it's enough to make
  • 00:00:50
    your eyes glaze over the good news is
  • 00:00:52
    you don't need a computer science degree
  • 00:00:54
    to make sense of all of it let's just
  • 00:00:56
    start with the basics screen size and
  • 00:00:58
    resolution manufacturers list laptops by
  • 00:01:01
    screen size not their actual width
  • 00:01:03
    screen size refers to the distance
  • 00:01:05
    between the two opposite corners of the
  • 00:01:06
    screen and can range between 10 and 18
  • 00:01:09
    in to figure out whether your laptop
  • 00:01:11
    will fit in your backpack or carry-on
  • 00:01:13
    you have to find these specific
  • 00:01:14
    dimensions which are listed in the specs
  • 00:01:16
    while you're there be sure to check out
  • 00:01:18
    the laptop's weight smaller laptops may
  • 00:01:20
    only weigh 3 lb but larger ones can be
  • 00:01:22
    as heavy as a gallon of milk I traveled
  • 00:01:24
    a bunch in Europe last summer and I
  • 00:01:26
    learned real quick that a 5B laptop in a
  • 00:01:29
    backpack with camera camera gear gets
  • 00:01:30
    real heavy real fast up next we have
  • 00:01:33
    screen resolution you'll want at least
  • 00:01:35
    full HD which you'll see listed as fhd
  • 00:01:38
    The Next Step Up in resolution is Quad
  • 00:01:40
    HD or 2K which is 2 times the pixel
  • 00:01:43
    density as full HD and then you finally
  • 00:01:45
    have 4K which UPS the anti Again by a
  • 00:01:48
    factor of two ideally you'd want a
  • 00:01:50
    screen with the highest resolution
  • 00:01:52
    possible and 4K will be crystal clear
  • 00:01:54
    but like everything we discussed today
  • 00:01:56
    there are constant trade-offs a bigger
  • 00:01:57
    and higher resolution screen makes
  • 00:01:59
    editing easier but it will mean a much
  • 00:02:01
    more expensive and heavier laptop if
  • 00:02:03
    you're not planning on connecting your
  • 00:02:05
    laptop to an external monitor you'll
  • 00:02:07
    want a larger screen with ideally 4K
  • 00:02:09
    resolution if an external monitor is in
  • 00:02:12
    your budget it might make more sense to
  • 00:02:13
    buy a midsize laptop that is easier to
  • 00:02:16
    carry on the go and then spend the extra
  • 00:02:18
    money you saved by going with the
  • 00:02:19
    smaller laptop to get a high-end high
  • 00:02:22
    resolution monitor the monitor that I
  • 00:02:24
    personally use is the 40in curved option
  • 00:02:26
    from LG which is currently on sale for
  • 00:02:29
    $1,400
  • 00:02:30
    I personally love this Monitor and will
  • 00:02:32
    leave all of the relevant links to gear
  • 00:02:33
    that we mentioned throughout this video
  • 00:02:35
    in the description below but no amount
  • 00:02:36
    of screen resolution will make up for a
  • 00:02:38
    slow or glitchy laptop so let's get
  • 00:02:40
    under the hood and talk about everyone's
  • 00:02:42
    favorite topic power as in processing
  • 00:02:45
    power let's face it video editing is
  • 00:02:47
    like feeding a hungry beast and not all
  • 00:02:49
    video editing is the same we have super
  • 00:02:51
    basic edits that consist of cutting up
  • 00:02:53
    1080p footage and you know piecing
  • 00:02:55
    together different clips but then you
  • 00:02:56
    can up the ante and add multiple layers
  • 00:02:59
    of high res resolution videos like 4K
  • 00:03:01
    files complex Graphics animations
  • 00:03:03
    effects 3D rendering and high-end
  • 00:03:05
    plugins all things that are going to
  • 00:03:07
    require a significant amount of
  • 00:03:08
    processing power if you want it to go
  • 00:03:10
    smoothly now the three primary
  • 00:03:12
    components that contribute to a laptop's
  • 00:03:14
    ability to edit video smoothly are the
  • 00:03:16
    CPU the GPU and the ram let's look at
  • 00:03:20
    each one by one the CPU or Central
  • 00:03:22
    Processing Unit is your laptop's brain
  • 00:03:24
    it's designed to perform General
  • 00:03:26
    calculations for every application
  • 00:03:28
    running on your laptop not just video
  • 00:03:30
    editing software this could mean sending
  • 00:03:31
    emails Spotify Photoshop Netflix you get
  • 00:03:34
    the idea typically the CPU is a
  • 00:03:36
    component in your laptop that's made by
  • 00:03:38
    a different company than the brand of
  • 00:03:40
    the laptop that you're buying the major
  • 00:03:41
    brands that create CPUs are Intel AMD
  • 00:03:45
    and apple they all make great CPUs and
  • 00:03:47
    you really can't go wrong choosing
  • 00:03:49
    between any of these Brands what's more
  • 00:03:51
    important is understanding how we
  • 00:03:52
    evaluate CPUs to make things simple CPUs
  • 00:03:55
    are made up of individual cores so the
  • 00:03:58
    power of your CPU is dependent on the
  • 00:04:00
    total number of cores and the clock
  • 00:04:02
    speed of each individual core which is
  • 00:04:04
    measured in gigahertz think of it like a
  • 00:04:06
    dog sled team where the dogs are the
  • 00:04:08
    cores in the CPU the more dogs the
  • 00:04:10
    better and then the clock speed is the
  • 00:04:12
    rate at which each dog can run it's not
  • 00:04:14
    a Perfect Analogy but it's close enough
  • 00:04:16
    so simply put the more cores the better
  • 00:04:19
    with six to eight cores being a good
  • 00:04:21
    Target for Smooth video editing you'll
  • 00:04:23
    also want to look for individual core
  • 00:04:25
    clock speeds of 3.2 GHz or higher for
  • 00:04:28
    Smooth video editing perform performance
  • 00:04:30
    usually when you're looking up specs of
  • 00:04:31
    computers online you'll see the core
  • 00:04:33
    count and the clock speed combined on
  • 00:04:35
    one line next on the list is the
  • 00:04:37
    graphics Processing Unit or the GPU the
  • 00:04:40
    GPU is like a suf who focuses on
  • 00:04:42
    Specialized tasks related to Graphics
  • 00:04:45
    such as rendering images in complex 2D
  • 00:04:47
    and 3D Graphics historically Nvidia and
  • 00:04:50
    AMD have dominated the market for gpus
  • 00:04:53
    but as of late Apple has made things
  • 00:04:55
    interesting that's because most laptop
  • 00:04:57
    gpus have always been Standalone units
  • 00:04:59
    separate from the CPU these dedicated
  • 00:05:02
    gpus had their own memory space known as
  • 00:05:04
    vram where they manage images and videos
  • 00:05:07
    if you're doing 4K editing it's great to
  • 00:05:09
    have a dedicated graphics card which is
  • 00:05:12
    another term for GPU and you'll want 6
  • 00:05:14
    GB or more of vram it can get complex
  • 00:05:17
    because there are so many different
  • 00:05:18
    names for gpus out there but here you
  • 00:05:21
    can see the GPU name and then the total
  • 00:05:23
    amount of vram that's the 6 GB or more
  • 00:05:25
    number that you want to optimize for so
  • 00:05:27
    for a while people have favored separate
  • 00:05:30
    dedicated gpus claiming they provide
  • 00:05:32
    more potential processing power and
  • 00:05:34
    reduce the workload on the CPU Apple has
  • 00:05:36
    recently turned this theory on its head
  • 00:05:38
    though with its latest M series chips
  • 00:05:40
    that integrate the CPU and the GPU
  • 00:05:43
    together on one single chip which they
  • 00:05:45
    call a system on a chip Apple actually
  • 00:05:47
    first did this in 2010 with the Apple A4
  • 00:05:51
    chip the first system on a chip used for
  • 00:05:53
    the first generation iPad along with the
  • 00:05:56
    iPhone 4 that came out at the same time
  • 00:05:58
    meanwhile with their Computers Apple
  • 00:06:00
    used Intel chips for all of their
  • 00:06:02
    MacBook Pro laptops until 2020 when they
  • 00:06:05
    released the first M1 chip they're now
  • 00:06:07
    up to M3 chips because they've been out
  • 00:06:09
    for a few years these range from CPUs
  • 00:06:11
    with 8 to 16 cores and integrated gpus
  • 00:06:14
    with 10 to 40 cores not to be outdone
  • 00:06:17
    AMD one of the CPU manufacturers we
  • 00:06:20
    mentioned earlier recently released its
  • 00:06:22
    own ryzen CPU with an integrated Radeon
  • 00:06:25
    graphics card essentially adapting the
  • 00:06:27
    same system on a chip strategy that
  • 00:06:29
    apple made waves with the logic apple
  • 00:06:31
    and AMD are using to justify integrating
  • 00:06:33
    the CPU and the GPU together is that by
  • 00:06:36
    putting the CPU and the GPU on the same
  • 00:06:38
    chip you'll get better performance in
  • 00:06:40
    thermal efficiency think of it like
  • 00:06:42
    being able to do your grocery shopping
  • 00:06:44
    clothes shopping and Furniture shopping
  • 00:06:46
    Allin one store rather than having to
  • 00:06:48
    drive all over town to the separate
  • 00:06:50
    stores it's just more efficient and it
  • 00:06:52
    translates into significantly less power
  • 00:06:54
    required to perform actions on the
  • 00:06:56
    laptop now before I give you my opinion
  • 00:06:58
    on all that we can't forget to mention
  • 00:07:00
    the last piece of the processing power
  • 00:07:02
    puzzle which is extremely important to
  • 00:07:04
    video editing Ram or random access
  • 00:07:07
    memory RAM is temporary storage that
  • 00:07:09
    your laptop uses to access data quickly
  • 00:07:11
    it's like a virtual workbench where your
  • 00:07:13
    laptop can assemble multiple files all
  • 00:07:15
    at once and it's separate from the CPU
  • 00:07:18
    GPU combo this is one of the most
  • 00:07:20
    important and also easiest specs to spot
  • 00:07:23
    when you're out there looking at laptops
  • 00:07:25
    the general rule of thumb is you'll need
  • 00:07:27
    ideally 16 GB of RAM for video editing
  • 00:07:29
    32 gigs if you are regularly working
  • 00:07:32
    with 4K resolution video files and even
  • 00:07:34
    more than that if you plan on doing
  • 00:07:36
    intense graphic work with your videos
  • 00:07:37
    the laptop that I use for video editing
  • 00:07:39
    has 64 GB of RAM just for reference now
  • 00:07:42
    it's not that video editing will be
  • 00:07:44
    impossible for you if you don't buy
  • 00:07:46
    enough RAM for example the 8 GB laptops
  • 00:07:48
    from Apple can still edit video they're
  • 00:07:51
    just going to lag pretty hardcore if you
  • 00:07:53
    start to get really complex with your
  • 00:07:55
    edits and unfortunately at the end of
  • 00:07:56
    the day Ram is one of those things where
  • 00:07:58
    no matter how much you get you're always
  • 00:08:00
    going to wish you got more which brings
  • 00:08:02
    us to the biggest factor in the whole
  • 00:08:04
    Apple versus PC debate in a lot of
  • 00:08:06
    windows-based laptops you can add or
  • 00:08:09
    upgrade ram later on after purchasing
  • 00:08:11
    which is great you can buy for your
  • 00:08:13
    current budget and then upgrade and add
  • 00:08:15
    more RAM to speed things up over time
  • 00:08:17
    apple on the other hand makes it so you
  • 00:08:19
    can't change the Ram or really any
  • 00:08:22
    aspect of their laptops after you've
  • 00:08:23
    purchased it so you have to decide on
  • 00:08:25
    your RAM and buy it all up front which
  • 00:08:27
    can get spendy real fast for for example
  • 00:08:29
    a brand new 16-in Macbook Pro with 8 tab
  • 00:08:33
    of internal storage and 128 GB of RAM
  • 00:08:36
    will set you back a cool $7,000 you
  • 00:08:39
    could get a new hot tub with that kind
  • 00:08:41
    of money now that's an insanely
  • 00:08:42
    expensive option that is an extreme
  • 00:08:44
    level of overkill for the beginner
  • 00:08:46
    editor looking to make nice videos I'm
  • 00:08:48
    not saying you have to spend that type
  • 00:08:49
    of money I'm just pointing out that
  • 00:08:50
    that's a lot of money to spend on a
  • 00:08:52
    computer where you can't modify it at
  • 00:08:54
    all after purchasing however there is a
  • 00:08:57
    silver lining here the Apple M series
  • 00:08:59
    Chi chips are an extremely impressive
  • 00:09:01
    development that give you more power and
  • 00:09:03
    efficiency per spec and per unit of
  • 00:09:05
    power draw for much less money than we
  • 00:09:08
    would have ever had to traditionally
  • 00:09:10
    spend in the past and of all the
  • 00:09:11
    Practical applications that have
  • 00:09:13
    experienced a boost from this new chip
  • 00:09:15
    technology video editing has likely
  • 00:09:17
    benefited the most which is why most big
  • 00:09:19
    YouTubers much bigger than myself all
  • 00:09:22
    use and recommend Apple Computers to
  • 00:09:24
    beginner creators both MacBooks and Mac
  • 00:09:27
    desktops now speaking of beginner
  • 00:09:29

    career oh yeah and you also get
  • 00:10:22
    discounts on Adobe software sound effect
  • 00:10:25
    downloads and editing templates and I
  • 00:10:26
    also personally host a live weekly Q&A
  • 00:10:29
    call where we can chat together and get
  • 00:10:30
    you moving fast okay now back to the
  • 00:10:32
    video to finish up there are a few specs
  • 00:10:35
    that we still need to touch on like
  • 00:10:36
    storage I recommend you opt for a laptop
  • 00:10:39
    with a fast solid state drive for quick
  • 00:10:41
    boot times and smooth application
  • 00:10:43
    loading unless you're on an extremely
  • 00:10:45
    tight budget I would not buy anything
  • 00:10:47
    with HDD internal storage that is much
  • 00:10:50
    slower you want SSD instead aside from
  • 00:10:53
    the type of storage when it comes to
  • 00:10:55
    deciding on how much actual storage
  • 00:10:57
    space you need I'd recommend no less
  • 00:10:59
    than 512 GB ideally 1 tab or up though
  • 00:11:03
    if you go for 512 GB you're going to
  • 00:11:06
    save money but you're also going to fill
  • 00:11:07
    that up pretty quick depending on how
  • 00:11:09
    much you shoot but like all video
  • 00:11:11
    editors your future will be filled with
  • 00:11:13
    buying external drives for additional
  • 00:11:15
    storage no matter what I personally have
  • 00:11:17
    well over 100 terabytes or 100,000 gbt
  • 00:11:21
    of footage built up over all of my years
  • 00:11:23
    of shooting and editing video so it's
  • 00:11:25
    kind of inevitable you're going to be
  • 00:11:26
    buying these things so you can save
  • 00:11:28
    money on storage if want and if you're
  • 00:11:29
    curious my recommendation on external
  • 00:11:31
    drives would be the Samsung t7 shields
  • 00:11:34
    for fast SSD drives and then larger more
  • 00:11:37
    affordable WD drives like this one for
  • 00:11:40
    backing up And archiving all the footage
  • 00:11:42
    that you aren't actively editing okay
  • 00:11:44
    battery life and efficiency battery
  • 00:11:46
    capacities are measured in Watt hours a
  • 00:11:48
    higher wat hour rating generally
  • 00:11:50
    translates to longer battery life but
  • 00:11:52
    remember manufacturer estimates can be
  • 00:11:54
    kind of generous so check user reviews
  • 00:11:56
    to get a more realistic idea of how long
  • 00:11:59
    the the laptop will last under normal
  • 00:12:00
    use and honestly video editing requires
  • 00:12:03
    so much power I wouldn't want you to
  • 00:12:05
    expect to be able to edit videos for
  • 00:12:07
    hours and hours on end without needing
  • 00:12:09
    to plug in to some sort of power now one
  • 00:12:11
    thing you'll probably notice in the
  • 00:12:12
    whole PC and Mac debate is due to the
  • 00:12:14
    more efficient CPU and GPU combos Macs
  • 00:12:18
    tend to have significantly better
  • 00:12:19
    battery life than most PC laptops and on
  • 00:12:22
    top of that the performance of Apple
  • 00:12:24
    laptops isn't impacted at all whether or
  • 00:12:26
    not you're connected to power
  • 00:12:28
    historically a lot of PC laptops have a
  • 00:12:30
    pretty significant dip in performance
  • 00:12:32
    power when they're not actually plugged
  • 00:12:34
    into the wall which can kind of slow you
  • 00:12:36
    down a lot I will say most newer PCS
  • 00:12:38
    don't have this issue anymore but it's
  • 00:12:40
    something that you probably want to
  • 00:12:42
    check with any PC you buy now I'm going
  • 00:12:44
    to list off both apple and PC options
  • 00:12:46
    here at a range of different price
  • 00:12:48
    points before I do that though I want to
  • 00:12:50
    very specifically address the Mac versus
  • 00:12:52
    PC debate for those who are still on the
  • 00:12:54
    fence so yes I personally own a Mac and
  • 00:12:57
    I'm sure many viewers will see that in
  • 00:12:59
    immediately Sprint to the comments
  • 00:13:01
    saying this video might as well have
  • 00:13:03
    been sponsored by Apple which trust me
  • 00:13:05
    it wasn't I love my computer but I also
  • 00:13:07
    want to be as unbiased as possible here
  • 00:13:10
    historically the value of a PC has had a
  • 00:13:12
    huge emphasis on the ability to
  • 00:13:14
    customize their specs after purchasing
  • 00:13:16
    them upgrading them over time as you
  • 00:13:18
    grow with the device this also means if
  • 00:13:20
    one of those components fails usually
  • 00:13:22
    it's a pretty straightforward and
  • 00:13:24
    affordable fix from a desktop
  • 00:13:26
    perspective this all also means that you
  • 00:13:28
    can down right build a PC from scratch
  • 00:13:31
    to fit your liking which usually comes
  • 00:13:33
    with huge cost savings obviously at the
  • 00:13:36
    expense of having to learn how to build
  • 00:13:37
    the computer so to summarize all that it
  • 00:13:39
    is a value to price ratio and then the
  • 00:13:42
    lifelong customization potential on the
  • 00:13:44
    flip side Apple computers have been
  • 00:13:46
    generally more expensive to get the same
  • 00:13:48
    amount of specs on paper compared to a
  • 00:13:50
    PC so for example a MacBook with 16 GB
  • 00:13:53
    of RAM will be more expensive than a PC
  • 00:13:56
    with 16 GB of RAM that being said though
  • 00:13:58
    Apple computers usually get a decent
  • 00:14:00
    real world performance boost compared to
  • 00:14:03
    their specs due to the fact that Apple
  • 00:14:05
    has complete control over every aspect
  • 00:14:07
    of their hardware and their software
  • 00:14:09
    compared to PC companies that Source all
  • 00:14:11
    of these different elements from
  • 00:14:13
    different companies there's just a much
  • 00:14:15
    larger margin for error in that equation
  • 00:14:18
    now that's all nice but Apple computers
  • 00:14:20
    also have that massive downside of not
  • 00:14:22
    being able to customize after purchase
  • 00:14:24
    and when something breaks since
  • 00:14:26
    everything is permanently fused together
  • 00:14:28
    inside the computer
  • 00:14:29
    even Apple usually doesn't want to fix
  • 00:14:31
    the computer and instead recommends
  • 00:14:33
    replacing it because it's probably going
  • 00:14:35
    to be a similar cost to what you need to
  • 00:14:37
    spend to fix it with that being said
  • 00:14:38
    Apple computers are generally extremely
  • 00:14:41
    reliable and they don't just break out
  • 00:14:43
    of the blue so it's not something you
  • 00:14:45
    typically need to worry about overall I
  • 00:14:46
    truly believe that since releasing the M
  • 00:14:49
    series chips Apple has vastly increased
  • 00:14:52
    the power to price ratio that they used
  • 00:14:55
    to kind of be known for and since
  • 00:14:56
    releasing those M series chips 80 to 90
  • 00:14:59
    90% of the scientific tests being
  • 00:15:01
    performed measuring these computers has
  • 00:15:03
    proven that pound per-pound spec per
  • 00:15:05
    speec M series chips will typically beat
  • 00:15:07
    out similarly speced PC Computers
  • 00:15:10
    primarily when it comes to the real
  • 00:15:12
    world application of video editing which
  • 00:15:14
    again is the primary focus of this video
  • 00:15:16
    that you're watching and this especially
  • 00:15:18
    applies to laptops because they are
  • 00:15:20
    typically restrained by power
  • 00:15:22
    limitations of having to work off of a
  • 00:15:24
    battery so those extremely efficient M
  • 00:15:26
    series chips are going to save the
  • 00:15:28
    computers a lot of stress if this was a
  • 00:15:30
    computer buying guide for software
  • 00:15:32
    developers I wouldn't be making all of
  • 00:15:34
    these same claims but Apple has put a
  • 00:15:36
    huge focus on optimizing their computers
  • 00:15:38
    for video editing and visual creatives
  • 00:15:40
    which again is why most YouTubers all
  • 00:15:42
    use and recommend Apple products without
  • 00:15:45
    them having to be paid to say that so
  • 00:15:47
    yes as much as I know this will cause
  • 00:15:48
    the comments to blow up if I could only
  • 00:15:50
    choose one for a beginner who has no
  • 00:15:52
    brand loyalty I would recommend Apple
  • 00:15:54
    every time that being said if you are
  • 00:15:56
    loyal to PCS I'm not saying that PCS are
  • 00:15:59
    bad and there are tons of really good
  • 00:16:01
    computers that will allow you to create
  • 00:16:03
    great content in the PC lineup okay now
  • 00:16:05
    we can actually talk about
  • 00:16:06
    recommendations you might find it ironic
  • 00:16:08
    that in a 2024 buying guide video I
  • 00:16:10
    would recommend buying used but
  • 00:16:12
    especially if you are limited on budget
  • 00:16:14
    I don't want price to hold you back from
  • 00:16:16
    creating great content you can find
  • 00:16:18
    models that were state-of-the-art last
  • 00:16:20
    year or even a few years ago for massive
  • 00:16:23
    discounts and they're still great
  • 00:16:25
    laptops so overall our reputable
  • 00:16:27
    companies include Dell HP Lenovo Asus
  • 00:16:31
    and of course Apple now not factoring in
  • 00:16:34
    price at all I think the best value for
  • 00:16:36
    your money laptop that you can get for
  • 00:16:38
    video editing is the M2 yes not the M3
  • 00:16:42
    MacBook Pro with 32 GB of RAM I've been
  • 00:16:45
    able to find these online refurbished or
  • 00:16:47
    used in the $1,500 to $2,500 price range
  • 00:16:50
    depending on the screen size you choose
  • 00:16:52
    and trust me this will be a Powerhouse
  • 00:16:54
    for video editors with an incredibly
  • 00:16:57
    high quality screen and exceptional
  • 00:16:58
    battery life and here's why I recommend
  • 00:17:00
    the M2 the M1 was great but the M2 had a
  • 00:17:03
    big performance jump over the M1 since
  • 00:17:06
    the M1 was the first version Apple ever
  • 00:17:08
    made for computers now the M3 is also
  • 00:17:11
    extremely impressive but it's not
  • 00:17:13
    anywhere near as big of a jump up from
  • 00:17:15
    the M2 as the M2 was compared to the M1
  • 00:17:19
    so essentially with the M2 you're
  • 00:17:21
    getting maximum power for maximum cost
  • 00:17:24
    savings because you aren't buying new
  • 00:17:26
    fresh off the lot now if you really want
  • 00:17:28
    to buy a computer at a similar price the
  • 00:17:30
    15in M3 MacBook Air with 24 GB of RAM
  • 00:17:35
    will also be a powerful video editing
  • 00:17:37
    machine you will be totally fine editing
  • 00:17:39
    4K and even 6K resolution footage using
  • 00:17:41
    this computer it's hard to believe I
  • 00:17:43
    just recommended a MacBook Air for video
  • 00:17:46
    editors but with how far they've come
  • 00:17:48
    that M3 chip and that larger 15in screen
  • 00:17:52
    it's like a perfect grab andgo video
  • 00:17:54
    editing computer now obviously if you
  • 00:17:56
    have more money to spend you will not be
  • 00:17:58
    disappointed going for any of the new M3
  • 00:18:01
    MacBook Pros I'd recommend optimizing
  • 00:18:03
    Ram first if you had to configure any of
  • 00:18:05
    the specs and really just get it to fit
  • 00:18:07
    your budget and that thing will rip
  • 00:18:09
    through videos now on the PC side the
  • 00:18:11
    Dell xps15 is a great computer as far as
  • 00:18:15
    the specific configuration is concerned
  • 00:18:17
    I'd suggest the I9 CPU the 4060 or
  • 00:18:20
    higher graphics card 52 or 1 tby storage
  • 00:18:24
    options than the full HD screen for the
  • 00:18:26
    price I really do think you're going to
  • 00:18:28
    get more from the Apple Computers but
  • 00:18:30
    this is nonetheless a great deal that
  • 00:18:32
    you can continue to upgrade over time
  • 00:18:34
    now I know none of those recommendations
  • 00:18:35
    were super budget friendly so let's dial
  • 00:18:38
    things back and bring it down to the
  • 00:18:39
    most affordable options that I think are
  • 00:18:42
    still worth buying for Max this would be
  • 00:18:44
    the original M1 MacBook Air with 8 GB of
  • 00:18:47
    RAM you can find this online for around
  • 00:18:49
    $500 to $600 now we're of course
  • 00:18:52
    breaking the earlier rule we mentioned
  • 00:18:54
    which is a minimum of 16 GB of RAM but
  • 00:18:57
    at the lower price points you're going
  • 00:18:58
    to need to make sacrifices this will
  • 00:19:00
    absolutely still edit videos it just
  • 00:19:03
    won't be as smooth or as fast as you may
  • 00:19:05
    like it to be now on the PC side the
  • 00:19:07
    Asus Viv book 16-in laptop with 12 GB of
  • 00:19:11
    RAM is actually on sale right now for
  • 00:19:14
    $449 which is an incredible steal
  • 00:19:17
    considering you still get that larger
  • 00:19:19
    16in screen size and a slight jump up in
  • 00:19:21
    Ram as well compared to the M1 MacBook
  • 00:19:23
    Air we just talked about there you have
  • 00:19:25
    it though a comprehensive guide to video
  • 00:19:27
    editing laptops links for all of the
  • 00:19:29
