What to consider when buying a new laptop for video editing

[FlyingDutchman90]

Hello everyone,
Thank you all for your input. So I was looking at some laptops in a shop nearby and also considering my budget, I am thinking of buying Asus Vivobook 15 OLED M1505YA
RAM: 16GB
Processor: AMD Ryzen™ 7 7730U Processor 2.0GHz (20MB Cache, up to 4.5 GHz, 8 cores, 16 Threads)
GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics
Storage: 512GB SSD

It seems to meet most criteria that were discussed here. Just the GPU I cannot find very detailed information about it. Do you think that this laptop would do the trick?

Right off the top, 16GB is pretty low for video editing memory. And ti it looks like it tops off at 16 Gb.

If it doesn't list a distinct GPU, then it's using the Radeon Graphics (Vega 8) integrated graphics solution that is part of Ryzen 7. If you are planning on using video editing software that can leverage a GPU, the Vega 8 wont do it. You'll be limited to just using the CPU. It would be OK for 1080 editing, slow for 4K.
