Heck even my intel GPU can do rendering

Are you doing 4,K ? World class editing ?

If just 1080p short clips . It's fine. Save your money. Get a solid reliable laptop

I also suggest you to get a ThinkPad with thunderbolt 3 or any laptop

Tomorrow if you want to edit , you can buy powerful eGPU or desktop class GPU and edit like a boss (later on)

Probably you need a more reliable laptop

I've done video editing with core 2 quad with 9800gt. HD video takes like 20mins (5mins video) to render.

People here assume hardcore rendering which is fine. I noticed that you were just starting vlog. Don't dump it all

I like your idea.

Tbh, I've been toying with the idea of buying eGPU for my Yoga. It already has 2 tb3 slots and there is official Lenovo eGPU Dock compatible with it (though admittedly a little outdated, only using 1050 - vanilla type and not Ti). Though it has a core-u processor, it does have 4c/8t... So basic stuffs should be ok.

H series CPU does better editing and rendering than U series CPU.

No . Its almost 3 times thicker than iPad . It also has on board ddr3 ram . You don't get what you pay for . You pay premium for a pretty case .

do have a quick read

for video editing, adobe premiere(the most popular editing software) utlises mainly the CPU and GPU's CUDA core(which literally means you need the GPU to be there, that's all, it needs to be nvidia that's all, any model will do)
so practically any laptop with a strong CPU and an Nvidia GPU can do 4k video editing

then to answer your question on H or U series CPU, the U series CPU can match the H's performance with some tweaks with the some quick undervolting and TDP unlock with throttlestop
even if you don't do anything, just simply plug in and turn on high performance can get you big performance: stable 3.2GHz all cores(6 cores 12 threads) in a fan room, can go higher in a cool air-con room if you want

so all in all, the prestige 14 will be a good machine for you, if you are planning to get one

1. I'm gonna clap for you if you don't put a cover on your precious and fragile 2/3K+ new ipad(I don't), and I struggle to see one around without a case/cover unless it's some old ass ipads from 5 years ago
Any ipad with a cover is barely any thinner than this prestige 14 I have, and that's not counting a KEYBOARD COVER

2. the 1650 version does have the on-board 2133 MHz ddr3 ram which I didn't really notice until you told me that because the machine is fast as heck
I checked with the cheaper MX250 model I have now and it has the speedier 2666MHz DDR4 ram which for me as a power user, doesn't mean shit unless it's running some 4000Mhz ram and has RGB then I will notice the speed increase innocent.gif icon_idea.gif

3. I get what I paid for when I get an ultrabook with monstrous performance and doesn't look like some ah beng laptop or some purely macbook knock-off
So yes and no to this statement, I personally pay more all the time for aesthetics, RGB and build quality and such cause I do appreciate these qualities, but if one person doesn't, then this category is definitely not for them

Consider a desktop instead of laptop and get better ram , processor.
