You are looking for a new laptop for image editing or video editing and some graphic design work but which one will you choose? There are a ton of models available on eCommerce sites but for photo editing work like using Photoshop you need a laptop with a specific set of configuration.
First and foremost is the display colour accuracy measured in standards like sRGB and NTSC. A laptop supporting 100% sRGB, for instance, will be guaranteed to display the colours accurately which is very important as it affects the quality of an editor's work.
Next, is the usual suspects like a decent processor i5 or above and a good amount of RAM, 8GB or greater are required for most software used in image editing. A graphics card is necessary if you want video editing but a fast SSD storage would be best as loading large PSD files or 4k Video files will be a breeze.
Following these requirements, we have found the best laptops for you to consider which is listed below with detailed specs.
