Hey Chaps! What laptop are you rocking right now? 🤔

(Also apologies for my horsey voice, it took me forever to film this hah)

Never go with Chromebooks. Too many issues.

Either Windows or MacBooks.
- Windows for gaming, work software compatibility, adjustable SSD, and ports for all kinds of accessories (wireless mouse, wireless keyboards, and external monitors).
- MacBooks for creator professional jobs, front-end website work, DJs, and general web browsing with a high-quality built laptop.

Can't wait to watch the recommendation video. I am looking for a 4K video editing laptop to buy this year.

I recently bought a laptop after sharing one with my mom, was lucky enough to get the MSI Modern 14 with a 12th gen core i5 on special and it's been great, this buying guide was very helpful and quite accurate, never been a better time to be in the market for a new laptop!

Great video, fast & super informative, thank you

We need a video about “All-In-One buying guide” 🔥

The Linux option wasn't mentioned. Linux compatibility is crucial for me since I don't use Windows at all. From a professional perspective as an IT professional, Linux is the best option for me.

How about buying older flagship laptops for cheap rather than buying current low or mid-range laptops with average specs???🤔

[AirrowRocket]

The best, most honest and practical advice for the consumer-at-large I've watched in a long, long time. Keep up the great work.

[suhaimiss]

thank you very much for the more tips... especially the last tips (marketing) 😅😅😅

[anuj]

Thanks a lot! Wonderful guide as usual. I remember that these lines have been spoken verbatim before on previous buying guide: 01:35-01:45 🙂

I don't agree with what was said about the Macbook Air being the best general choice. I just looked into getting one, and it's such an obscene, obsolete product I think. The base price is high to begin with, and the default configuration of 8GB RAM and 256GB storage is nothing else than a complete insult, with upgrade prices being a downright robbery. So, for 1600-1800 dollars/euros you end up with a product that has 16GB RAM, only 512GB storage, with a soldered SSD that can brick your device easily, combined with a 60 Hz LCD display. That's a lot of compromises for a somewhat longer battery life. Meanwhile competing laptops offer similar build quality, 16GB RAM in the base config, 120Hz OLED screen, replaceable/uprgradeable SSD, perhaps even 2-in-1 functionality, at a significantly lower price.

I have a suggestion, when stating pricing of the laptops, state there pricing in other currencies as well, like Indian Rupee, it will help non uk based audiences cause it ruins the experience by constantly checking prices in other currencies.

Thanks very much for this video, it answers loads of questions that were in my head. I’m a photographer using full frame cameras that produce images up to 60MP and medium format cameras with images up to 100MP; Apple aside, I’m looking for ideally a Windows laptop that has the most true to life image rendition for image editing and one that can cope with large files while multi tasking. Oh and I edit a lot of 4k video too. I saw your video on the ASUS Pro Art P16 and it looks like it’s well fit for purpose. I’d really appreciate your opinion on this laptop and if there are others that are equally as fit for purpose, especially for the image quality and resolution. Thanks again for this video and for your channel. Your reviews are a breath of fresh air and incredibly easy to follow while being super informative (I’ve subscribed). Cheers, Matt.

Thanks for this very informative tutorial. Which moderately priced laptop would you recommend for use with video editing software (MiniTool/Clipchamp)?

[bradavon]

You can get a perfectly solid Windows Laptop for £400. Don't get less than 8GB RAM and less than an Intel Core i3 CPU.

[dietmarschmitz]

Great video, but you missed Linux. And reapairable Laptops like the Framework.

[daltonknox]

I got an ACER Aspire for under $300 on Prime Day a couple of years back. I did put in a hard drive to store a CD archive. It does everything I need well.
