Any recommendation for 2.5k-3k laptop used for normal office usage and light video editing?

Hi, I would like purchase a lightweight laptop (under 1.3kg if possible). I would bring it around with me. Main purpose would be for media consumption and video/photo editing. No gaming etc. Budget is 3.5-4K.

Requirements:
- Any brands will do
- Lightweight (under 1.3kg)
- Sufficient RAM (16GB at least)
- At least 256GB space [512GB if possible]
- Additional slot for m.2 SSD or 2.5 SDD would be nice as well.
- Good color accuracy
- Good cooling
- Good battery life
- Prefer 13-14” screen


Thank you.

Anyone of you guys use honor laptop? Been seeing Honor Magic pro 14 & Magic Art 14 ads on my Facebook. Is it better than Asus or Acer ?

I not used but do research before when I eyeing to buy laptop. Honor laptops spec quite good but in general use soldered RAM. This issue push me away from buying.

DELL outlet u ok?

The quality should be okay right ?

So far not see many complaints.

It's the only OLED touchscreen laptop with 32gb ram & 1 TB SSD that I know of below 5000.

Not many small laptops can offer additional ssd slots.

Have a look at Lenovo Thinkbook 14 G7 AMD (customized with discount), it has 2 removable RAM slots, 2 removable 2280 SSD slots, an option for 100% sRGB screen, all metal build.

Alternatively there are some Thinkpads but hard to find one with a good screen. Smaller battery capacity than Thinkbook.

😆 End up I bought Lenovo Thinkbook 14 G7 AMD (AMD Ryzen™ 7 7735HS Processor} RM3,350.31 after discount code n rebates in April 2025.

That is the way. I got this model too. Good to have the option to upgrade the screen & battery. Cheap and nice.

Your one is customize model? I took the standard package because cheaper even I try to customize the exact same spec.

Yes coz i want to max out the screen to 100% sRGB, 60wh battery, WiFi 6E and metal body. With onsite support, came out to be around m3.4k. When I bought it tbis month, they dont allow vouchers to be stacked.

Added extra RAM & SSD myself (cheaper this way).

RM3.4K meant you only took 1 year onsite support, window 11 home etc right? Customise far expensive than the one I choose if I want to choose 100% sRGB which close to RM4k.
