I would like to buy one of the two laptops (see below). He should be used especially in the study, mainly to create documents. Incidentally, he will occasionally be used for video editing, etc. If you know of an insider tip, then you are welcome to write it.
My question is how the battery life will turn out, if you just write it, brow a bit etc… Then yes, despite the "good" graphics cards, the battery last longer because they are not used in idle. Or am I overseeing something? Just want to make sure before I buy that and then smear me down after an hour because he has such power-hungry hardware.
Thank you for your answers!

Although this has nothing to do with the question, but it is appropriate here: The things are unsuitable for your project.
These are beginner gaming notebooks. The parts are meant to stand on a table and be connected to the cable, but at the same time to offer you the opportunity to write a quick message on the sofa and take it on vacation.
The parts are not suitable to be towed to the university every day and used there. But they are too heavy, too unwieldy and too fragile. Bad luck does not last two years. In addition, the battery life is a joke.
If you really want a notebook for studying, then buy The HP ProBook 440 G5, I think there's even student discount on it. The part can Office and if necessary even light video editing. It's a business device and designed to be carried around with you every day. Also, the battery keeps a whole corner longer.
This is a companion for studying, these two are not there. If you really want to gamble, then buy yourself an extra PC.
That had nothing to do with your question now, but it is therefore unnecessary from this point of view. The battery life with which is a joke. Thick processor and thick graphics card, idle idle 10W, rather more. There's then after three, a maximum of four hours finish, outside with appropriate display brightness even more.
Okay, I thought so.
I guess it keeps in normal office mode max 4 hours, depending on how often the graphics card is used and how bright the display is.
The much better solution would be because 2 devices to use. These "gaming" laptops are not very good in terms of durability and battery life.
I myself would take for about 300 euro a notebook with SSD, Full HD display and the best passively cooled Pentium processor, which is absolutely sufficient for Office. For this you can then put a powerful PC for video editing at the desk, which is also upgradable. The notebooks with passively cooled processor usually have a battery life of 10 hours, as one normally only knows from Macbooks.
From your two notebooks, I would take the HP, since the battery is slightly larger and the graphics card is more powerful. Likewise I did not have good experiences with Acer. It should be noted that gaming and video editing are both a bit weak.
I did not really want to use them for gaming, just keep open the possibility of having a mobile PC running Adobe programs reasonably well
Again, a notebook is not the best choice, the cooling and battery life are simply not optimal, apart from the fact that a desktop PC in the same price segment is a good deal more powerful.
In any case, I think these gaming bricks are absolutely unsuitable for the university. But that's also your decision, if this is very important to you with the DV editing are certainly not a bad choice for the price. Thinner models with comparable performance usually cost a lot.
No, I'm definitely in agreement with you. Since I have no idea about laptops, these 2 products came in my shortlist. Now it will probably be the Acer Aspire 5 A515-51-592H For video editing, I'm still my monster at home
All right.
The Acer is certainly not bad, my brother has almost the same. Personally, I would rather take a lighter and leaner class for the university than this one

It is fanless and the battery should last forever…
But the Acer fits too, if it's not too big for you.
Thank you for the tip: But unfortunately I'm used to 15.6 inch displays.
Both use an Intel CPU that would work you more badly than right here. Even if you have a separate graphics card (see Nvidia) with it.
Better would be a notebook with an AMD Mobile Ryzen APU

Slightly downsoll then you will also find offers for the models that are so.
For the notebooks with Nvidia graphics unit, the problem is that next to the CPU, the GPU still has to be cooled. This requires a cumbersome cooling systems are quickly warm and work so often at the limit or must also be throttled under load because the cooling is often tight. On the AMD Mobile Ryzen, the GPU sits on a socket and chip (die) together with the CPU. The cooling can be designed better and therefore not infrequently also fall off the devices a little flatter. The integrated graphics, so you can (conditionally) even gamble. And for video editing AMD graphics units are better either way. The AMD Vega are either light years superior to the Intel HD graphics units.
If it fits in the bag it is not a problem, also have a 15.6 inch.
