The Best Notebooks for Photo and Video Editing

February 2021 Update. The requirements for a laptop that is going to be used primarily for video and photo editing are rather unique. For example, a top-notch display paired with excellent application performance are two absolute must-haves. The following table contains an overview over the best laptops that meet the basic requirements for a portable workstation with a focus on video and photo editing.

Laptop Windows Business Charts

One of the most common usage scenarios for notebooks is the storing, viewing, sorting and editing of pictures as well as videos. A laptop for this purpose should have a very high-quality display to represent your collections as accurately as possible and obviously provide the necessary performance to ensure a productive workflow. We also use the weight as a criterion for this ranking, which should be an indicator for mobility. Other K.O. criteria are processors with a performance level compared to modern Intel Core i chips, a full-size SD reader as well as a display of at least 13-inches. You can also use the following top lists for further research:

Editor's Comments

In October of 2020 we attempted a major criterion update for this list. From now on, the ranking is based primarily on the average rating in the display and application performance categories. You can display the individual ratings used for this average ranking by hovering your mouse pointer over the weighted rating cell.

1st – Gigabyte Aero 17 HDR XB

Gigabyte Aero 17 HDR XB
Gigabyte Aero 17 HDR XB

The HDR edition of Gigabyte’s Aero 17 XB features an extremely bright and color accurate UHD panel. Unfortunately, its high resolution of 3840 x 2160 manages to bring the included GPU (GeForce RTX 2070 Super Max-Q) to its knees quite easily and frequently. The slim and visually discreet and unobtrusive case is not just aimed at gamers but creatives as well. Thanks to its long battery life the device is even somewhat usable on-the-go despite its large 17-inch display.

Considering aforementioned large 17-inch screen its weight of 2.7 kg / 5.95 lbs is acceptable. Users in search of a device that offers a high level of performance when out and about should take note of the Aero 17. The included Thunderbolt 3 port is a nice bonus as well.

Things we did not like include the positioning of the webcam, the distribution of its ports, and its noise emissions under load. In return, the devices comes with a full-size SD card reader.

2nd - Apple MacBook Pro 13 2020 M1

Apple MacBook Pro 13 2020 M1
Apple MacBook Pro 13 2020 M1

Apple migrated its smaller MacBook Pro 13 2020 M1 with its own in-house M1 SoC as well. The 13M1 offers more performance and a longer battery life than its Intel-powered predecessors while satying cooler and quieter at the same time.

However, you might want to also consider the cheaper MacBook Air M1. It may not offer the same level of peak performance due to its passive cooling and it may come with a slightly dimmer display, a slightly shorter battery life, and no Touch Bar, but it can be several hundred dollars cheaper as well. And it remains a great tool for video and photo editing.

That said we expect this argument to falter once Apple equips its MacBook Pro 13 with a more powerful M1X processor.

3rd – MSI Creator 17 A10SGS

According to gaming specialist MSI the future of displays is Mini LED. This new panel technology allows OEMs to control individual areas of the display independently of one another, thereby allowing for a combination of high display brightness and high contrast ratio (local dimming) and creating the basis for true HDR playback. The MSI Creator 17 is the first notebook with a Mini LED display, and it performed exceptionally well in our tests (93 %). That said its HDR capabilities were not taken into consideration yet, something you need to keep in mind should this be of interest to you.

Other benefits of MSI’s Creator include plentiful connectivity including Thunderbolt 3, excellent system performance (10875H 8-core CPU, RTX 2080 Super Max-Q GPU, up to 64 GB of RAM, and 2x M.2 slots for NVMe SSDs), a clean business-like design, and last but not least a comparatively small footprint for a 17-inch notebook. Priced at around $4,000 the Creator 17 is definitely aimed at professional users.

4th – Schenker XMG Neo 17

Nvidia’s latest GPU generation has to be taken with a grain of salt as numerous possible TDP configurations can result in very different performance levels despite a seeming identical product name. Fortunately, the Schenker XMG Neo 17 features a 140 W TDP configuration (including Dynamic Boost) for plenty of performance, and its RTX 3070 is faster than some RTX 3080 laptops.

But, as always with great power and performance come great noise emissions in 3D. The device also lacks a Thunderbolt port further impeding connectivity. In return, the display is great to look at and offers low response times and a good representation of colors. While it does not offer full 4K resolution it still runs at an acceptable 1440p.

We did not like the webcam. If you intend to use this device regularly for video calls you may want to consider a dedicated external webcam.

5th – Lenovo ThinkPad T15p

Lenovo ThinkPad T15p
Lenovo ThinkPad T15p

If you are in the market for a great 4K LCD the Lenovo ThinkPad T15p might be just the right choice for you. It offers a high level of brightness for outdoor use, accurate colors, and an almost complete sRGB color space coverage. It also offers plenty of performance for mobile photo and video editing, mobile internet connectivity, and a robust and sturdy case.

Other benefits include the full-sized SD card reader and its overall decent connectivity. As expected of a ThinkPad its input devices are extremely good.

On the flip side we find poor battery life of less than an hour at full load, high case temperatures, and loud fans.

The ThinkPad T15p is anything but affordable, and there are plenty of devices with longer battery life and lower case temperatures in its price class.

6th – Apple MacBook Air 2020 M1

Apple MacBook Air 2020 M1

To nobody’s surprise the Apple MacBook Air 2020 is selling like hot cakes. After all, the Apple M1 turned out to be a great success. It is Apple’s first self-developed ARM-based microprocessor, and it is not only capable of keeping up with current Intel and AMD processors but even outperforms them in some situations. And it does all that without active cooling. And to add insult to injury it is just the beginning, and the entry-level version of Apple’s CPU.

True, there are some teething issues with emulating older macOS software but in return you get access to a large catalog of iOS applications. We are expecting these issues to subside over the next few months as developers adapt to the new platform and architecture.

Otherwise, the device is practically identical to the well-known Intel-based Apple MacBook Air 2020, which means it still lacks a touchscreen. Storage space is somewhat limited, and prices for optional upgrades are as steep as ever. We would have also wished for a better webcam and Wi-Fi modem. Nevertheless, the MacBook Air 2020 with Apple’s own processor is incredibly impressive.

7th – MSI GT76 Titan DT 10SGS

What do you get if you combine brute performance with a very good display? The MSI GT76 Titan. Originally a gaming laptop the GT76 offers a combination of an Intel 10-core CPU with Nvidia’s GeForce RTX 2080 Super, up to 64 GB of RAM, and a total of 4 storage slots (3x M.2, 1x 2.5-inch) which should suffice even for the most demanding applications.

In our review, the GT76 demonstrated its raw brute levels of performance while remaining comparatively cool and quiet as long as you don’t run it at peak capabilities non-stop. Unsurprisingly for a gaming laptop its 120 Hz 4K display’s main strength were response times. In addition, it also offered a high level of brightness, a good contrast ratio, and wide color gamuts. Downsides include its weight of almost 9 lbs, which basically gags all claims of portability, as well as its poor battery life. At prices of between $4,000 and $5,000 it is certainly one of the most expensive options out there.

8th – MSI Creator 15 A10S

MSI uses the Creator moniker for a wide variety of notebooks that are aimed primarily at creative users and content creators. The MSI Creator 15 combines a high-resolution 4K 15-inch display with Intel’s 10th gen 8-core processors and high-end Nvidia GPUs. The system supports up to 32 GB of RAM and two M.2 SSDs.

In our review, the Creator 15 scored particularly well in the display category (bright, high contrast ratio, wide color gamut), its overall performance level, and its good-looking high-quality case. The price for all this? Between $2,500 and $3,500 depending on SKU.

9th – Schenker XMG Ultra 17

Despite the fact that the Clevo X170SM-G-based XMG Ulltra 17 is much more modest and less pretentious than many of its competitors it cannot entirely rid itself of its gaming pedigree. The top model comes with a 10-core Intel Core i9 CPU, a Nvidia GeForce RTX 2080 Super GPU, up to 128 GB of RAM, and 4x M.2 slots, and is therefore at the bleeding edge of what is currently possible.

The Ultra 17 features a 4K display that proved itself in our review with a high brightness, good contrast ratio, and a wide color gamut. Performance is top-notch and the notebook offers a high level of customization thanks to its upgradeable RAM and storage options. Unsurprisingly, prices for this marvel of notebook engineering are fairly high. Depending on configuration the XMG Ultra 17 can set you back more than $4,000.

10th – HP EliteBook 845 G7

HP’s AMD-equipped EliteBook 845 G7 is yet another recommendation over the Intel counterpart, compared to which it is faster, offers more GPU performance, and cheaper. Its keyboard is comfortable, and its battery life is decent. You can even charge the laptop via USB-C.

Unfortunately, Thunderbolt 3 and a microSD card reader are nowhere to be found. The fan is also not particularly pleasant when it gets going. Overall, we very much liked the high-quality premium EliteBook 845 G7 a lot.
