im going to buy a laptop soon.
im going to use it for casual use like light gaming (some minecraft or terraria but since the laptop im buying has TB 3 i can play more intensive games) and light video editing for simple school projects.
but im considering to buy a gaming laptop instead cus its more powerful but im also want it to have a long battery life and lightweight

im planning to use davinci resolve or hitfilm express

If you want a powerful, lightweight laptop for editing videos get a MacBook Pro.

No gaming laptops have good battery and are lightweight as they have to trade one for the other. Either you get one with a huge battery and it’s 3” thick or you get a thin and light that’ll last an hour under load.
