Which laptop for business and video editing?

I need a laptop that masters all Adobe programs perfectly and does not scratch or lose performance.

Condition or application:

Adobe (Photoshop, Premiere Pro, InDesign and Illustrator)

Website construction, SEO work etc (multi-tasks)

Personal favorites:

-Apple

-Tuxedo (Linux based)

-Dell

why the question? When it comes to requirements, it is difficult for me. Any experience? Any experience with Tuxedo?

At Apple Theroretisch every Macbook available in the Apple Store could do it, even the models from the last 2 years, I think, should not cause any problems.
Then it depends on how much you want to spend

This is unfortunately not the case. All mentioned Adobe programs run on every current Mac. Whether you can work fluently in the end, depends on the model and its equipment.

Well, Apple generally stands for very very strong performance through software.
I have a Macbook from 2018 that does it all

Whether notebook or Macbook, primarily the CPU, GPU and RAM play a role. If you like, the essential components that matter in the end. In terms of price-performance, non-Apple hardware actually gives you more for your money. Sometimes even more. Where performance is not everything and one or the other is also about the operating system.

Adobe (Photoshop, Premiere Pro, InDesign and Illustrator)

Almost every Macbook can handle Photoshop, Illustrator and InDesign. In terms of video post-production, however, more computing power should be available. Whereby that is partly true for other software from the CC. Ultimately, very individual and depends largely on how much you ausreizt the individual programs.

Website construction, SEO work etc (multi-tasks)

Basically, every modern model is actually enough for web development. I myself work u.a. With multiple Lenovo ThinkPads T420s. In some cases even more often sitting there, as my HP Envy, although this has significantly more power and held.

Personal favorites:

Whether Apple, HP, Lenovo, Asus, Dell or other well-known manufacturers who are still missing here. Meanwhile, actually, each of which has good and bad devices on offer. You should not be so stiffening and focus more on the technical characteristics, workmanship and the price / performance ratio.

I myself own u.a. A nearly 3 year old HP Envy with aluminum body and that still runs like the first day. My Lenovo ThinkPads T420s are still doing pretty well for their age and even for my Dino, a Fujitsu Amilo, I still use them. Mind you to the development and not for 3D / video-Gedöns. 😉

For such questions you should basically call your own budget. After all, it will not do you any good if we call you a 2,000, 3,000 or 5,000 Euro workhorse, if in the end you can or want to spend far less on it.

Finally, the question is posed, mobility is important to you or even classic desktop would also be an option for you. At least I would almost always prefer a workstation for professional 3D / video post production. Use additionally.

I will hold many customer visits in the future and would like to visualize details on the spot. That's why mobility is very important!

It should be compact and not too heavy. Together I would like to spend a maximum of 1200 euro.

Apple Macbook Pro Retina 15 "- A1398 Intel Core i7-4770HQ (4x 2.2GHz) - (39.1cm) 15.4" Retina TFT Display - 16384MB DDR3 (2x 8GB) - Apple Mac OS X 10.14 Mojave
What about the above?

Or this one.

Lenovo ThinkBook 13s-IWL 20R9 - Core i7 8565U / 1.8 GHz - Win 10 Pro 64-Bit - 16 GB RAM - 512 GB SSD NVMe - 33.8 cm (13.3 ") IPS 1920 x 1080 (Full HD) - UHD Graphics 620 - Wi -Fi, Bluetooth - Mineral Gray
has just a graphics chip. But actually premiere pulls only cpu.

I use one of my 14 "ThinkPads for such purposes, because I do not like to carry around several thousand euro with me, which includes macOS and at least enough for me to give presentations.

Please take a look at the system requirements of each Adobe program before purchasing. Not that you are disappointed in the end and annoyed every day anew about the possible bad buy.

The Intel Iris 655 graphics chip is somewhere in the range of a dedicated GeForce 930M. If you then, for example If you want to cut 4K raw material, it quickly gets really thin and is not really fun.

If your max. Budget at 1.200, - €, you might even look at the linked 15.6 "HP Omen. With this or similar notebook longer term in my opinion" better "on the way is Enough connection options (including Thunderbolt, USB Type-C), ne" clever "GPU, RAM expandable to 32GB and the system requirement of Premiere are also covered.

Understand the model for reference only and not here by brand. Comparable also from Lenovo, Asus and Co. Find. For example, the 17.3 "Lenovo IdeaPad L340.

As much as I like my Macs, I would not choose a Macbook on your budget. If only a used and refurbished model, provided the price is right. Price-wise in the linked notebooks have more for your money.

I do not deny that and own Macs myself. The "entry-level Macs" with "weak" CPU and Intel Iris, however, are anything but tingling when it comes to video post-production. In this case with Adobe Premiere.

That's why I wrote so that Adobe's software runs on every current Mac (creates). But that alone is not enough to be able to work fluently. At least when multitasking with cutting 4K raw material "cheap" Macs sweat quickly.

For business I mostly use DELL XPS.

Yes very happy, but who also cuts 4k material on a laptop
