Video editing can be a complicated job – one that you’re not able to do on just any laptop. If you’re serious about your videography, you’ll want to purchase a laptop that has the proper equipment and capabilities to get the job done. In this list, we’ve compiled a few options that are up to the task. We’ll tell you more about the hardware, display, and compatibility each one offers. 

How long will the battery last on each laptop?

Most laptops offer somewhere between 7.5 and 11 hours of operation on a single charge. Keep in mind that this will depend on several factors, such as the brightness of your screen and the programs that you’re running. Streaming and editing videos can quickly drain a computer’s battery. However, we do have one computer on this list that is capable of running for 18 hours on a single charge, and we’ll tell you more about this one later. 

How large are the screens?

There are a few laptops on this list that are smaller, with screens ranging between 11 and 13 inches wide. There are also multiple laptops on this list with screens as large as 15 inches wide. Most screens are standard and can only sit in one position; however, one laptop on this list will feature a touch-screen that you can rotate in such a way that allows you to use your computer as a tablet.  

While you now know more about laptops for videography than when we started, you probably still have some questions. As you get ready to look at the individual options, here are some things to keep in mind:
