Which Laptop Is Good Enough For Video Editing and Microsoft Office?

Hey guys,

Check it out!

A lady, which I assumed she is, by her Youtube picture, asked me if the HP laptop that I bought is good enough for video editing and using Microsoft Word or Excel. I replied that it is. Although, for video editing, even though it didn't lag, a video image did freeze while I was editing a gameplay video.

I also told her that she might want to upgrade the Ram from 8GB to 12-16GB. The AMD Ryzen 7 processor is definitely good enough but I worry about the Radeon X Vega 10 mobile graphics. It can only play the latest, graphics-intensive games on low to medium.

She told me that she's not into gaming but for video editing, I wonder if the Vega 10 graphics have any effect. I still haven't upgraded my rams, so I don't really know if upgrading will help. Other than that, I don't think she'll have any problem when using Microsoft Office.

I have a gaming PC with a 16GB DDR4 Ram, an i7 processor, and GTX 1060 3GB graphics card. I use it for gaming, video editing, and blogging. It's already a couple of years old but it still runs smoothly. If you're looking for any minimus specs, this should be it.

I also use my iPad Pro 10.5 for taking videos, editing, and uploading to my Youtube Channel. In fact, it's my main device for most of my current content on my channel. Before that, it was my iPhone 8. I never had any problem editing any video big or small with Apple devices.

That's why I was a little perplexed when a video image actually freeze while editing video gameplay on my HP AMD Ryzen 7 laptop. To be clear, the laptop didn't freeze. The video was running and I can even hear the sound. I realized the image wasn't moving.

I kinda like the new Apple iPad Air. I wish I have the money to get it. I've been thinking of upgrading from my iPad 10.5. I need a bigger storage and a better camera. Not that, my current iPad isn't any good. It's still one of the best iPad I've owned.

I prefer to use my iPad for making videos, editing, and uploading it to my Youtube channel because I love using Apple's iMovie app. That's one of the main reasons. With an iPad stand holder, the iPad is also easy and flexible enough to be used to take videos.

I've talked about the latest Asus ZenBook Duo before, and I think the 2nd screen will definitely be useful for video editing or for other usages. Hey, like they say, two heads or screens are better than one, right? I'll definitely get it, if and when I have the money.

One thing is that there isn't really any good FREE video editing software that I like, you can use on Windows 10 PC or laptop. I still prefer the old Microsoft Movies Maker. I don't know why they stop supporting it. Luckily, I downloaded it somewhere (can't find the website anymore) and am still using it today.

Yes, I know there's a new free video editor for Windows 10. But, I still prefer the old one. It's much easy and quicker. Especially, when you want to snip or re-arrange the videos. Adding text was also simple. The new editor kinda limited and 'obstructive' to my working flow.

Lol. I really detest that Microsoft doesn't allow us to use the software anymore. Would have been fine if they just update it with new text designs, image, sound, and music. But, they change the whole user interface. If it ain't broken why fix or change it?

It is, of course, my personal opinion. My whole blog is base on my own experience and opinions on the old or latest products and services. If you like my youtube channel and blog would appreciate the support by 'buying' me Coffee via the link below!

ASUS ZenBook Pro Duo - The laptop of tomorrow?

Hey guys,

Check it out!

Yesterday, I talk about laptops with dual monitor attachment. At first, I wasn't into them. But, after using a portable monitor as a second monitor, it all makes sense to me. Having two or more monitors is practical if you're a multi-tasker. 

How many of us open more than 10 tabs in our browser? Rather than switching between them, why not have them open up on more screens? I usually use my main monitor to watch youtube videos while I work on my blog and youtube channel below on my portable monitor.

Sometimes, I'll open up more tabs on my main screen too. I'm also thinking of using the laptop portable monitor attachment for my main screen. So, I'll have two more added screens. The problem is that my desktop room is already a little cramp right now. I'll need to figure a way to fit them all in one desk.

I am also thinking of upgrading my main pc monitor to a wider curved monitor. Would be great to watch movies on it. And, maybe since it'll be wider, I can use split-screen for my browsers. I don't use apps much. Only Whatsapp, and sometimes Microsoft Your Apps to access my phone.

Well, all these brings me to why I'm beginning to like the Asus Pro Duo two-screen laptop concept. I won't be surprised if Asus actually got the idea from Apple. Remember that Apple Touch Bar laptop? People didn't think much of that. Well, Asus did one up with that 'silly' idea.

First thing first, I've never owned or even seen it in real life. So, my opinions are based on what I've seen from pictures and specs. I didn't even bother to watch the reviews. Am mostly based on my experience as a multi-tasker with dual monitors.

Okay, I decided to watch a Linus video review on the laptop around a year ago just a moment ago and it's still relevant now. He even said, what was on my mind. This dual-screen laptop is great for multi-taskers. You can open up youtube or blog on the main screen and do research on the second screen below. Pretty nifty!

One thing for sure, it's definitely much better than Apple's stupid touch bar. With this second screen, which is also a touchscreen, you can do so much more. It's just like a normal second screen without the need for any kind of software. But, Asus did do that too. So, it's more like a plus to what you're already using. Now, that's what I call an added value.

Imagine, if you already have the Zen Duo, and when you buy two attachable portable monitors. You'll now have more screens to use on the go. Just remember that you'll probably need to be near a PowerPoint as they'll probably eat up the juice pretty fast. 

To me, Asus has definitely found a way to fit in a second screen without making it too bulky, heavy, or ugly. Hey, two heads are better than one, and definitely having 1 and 1/2 screens is better than one too. I would really love to get my hands on this and see what it can do.

What you guys think?
