I want a laptop for video editing and office work. Of course, a bigger battery life is a plus. I have found two laptops but I still don't know which one to pick. Please make your choice and tell me why should I pick it. Which one has the best battery life, and which one has a better cooling system, because I might use it (plugged, of course) under full load, for continuous periods of time like 6-8 hours for HD video editing.
1.) HP Pavilion 17: i7-4702MQ, 8 GB 1600 MHz, 1 TB 5400 rpm, Intel HD 4600, Radeon HD 8670M (2 GB).
2.) HP Pavilion G6: i7-3632QM, 8 GB 1600 MHz, 1 TB 5400 rpm, Intel HD 4000, Radeon HD 7670 M (2 GB)
3.) Lenovo G500: i7-3632QM, 4 GB 1600 MHz, 500 GB 5400 rpm, Intel HD 4000, Radeon 8570M (1 GB).
4.) Lenovo Z500: i7-3632QM, 6 GB 1600 MHz, 1 TB 5400 rpm, Intel HD 4000
I would buy the HP Pavilion 17, as it has better specs, but I don't know how it can handle the heat and I don't know which one has a better battery life. Do you know if these models have optional extended batteries? I couldn't find anything about it on Lenovo and HP websites...
