Which max. 800 euro laptop is good for editing 4K videos?

I'm looking for a laptop with which I can edit 4K videos smoothly. Unfortunately I only have 800 euro available.

This is sure to be a problem.

Look for a Ryzen 4800H / 4750u with 16 GB of RAM. You don't need to start below.

The keyword is: "proxy files".

ie: The software creates smaller files for processing. The originals are then used again during export. That takes a little longer!

I would recommend Shotcut or Kdenlive. Forget DaVinci Resolve!

I'm looking for a laptop, not software

Already clear. But if the thing is to run with a cheap computer, then only with the appropriate software.

That won't work, I would just recommend you to take a file that is ka 720p or 1080p and then simply edit it and then just render it in 4k. Would recommend a (used) MacBook for this.

I have a 4K camera and want to edit the videos from it. I'm not assuming 720p.

For 800 euro you can't get a laptop that can handle it smoothly. So either you do it or you don't. In the end you have a 4k video.

You can edit it with almost any laptop, depending on which it renders a little longer.

This one will be sufficient if you are working with proxy files!

But everyone who knows anything about video editing does that anyway…
