I'm a student, which is why I can't afford an expensive notebook. Is the cheaper Matebook D Ryzen still just as functional? Or should I rather use the Matebook D with Intel Core i5?
It depends on what you want to do with it. If you just want to do multimedia and office stuff with it, it's enough. Whereby, of course, a cheaper laptop would be enough. To gamble both laptops are not really useful, since both have only a lame graphics chip. For the price of 750 euro, you can already put together a good gaming PC. I just wanted to mention that on the edge. ^^
I'm looking for a notebook with which I can cut videos and edit images and, as you have already mentioned, enough for office and multimedia
Ryzen, 4 cores 8 threads. A GPU that works better than Intel's.
What is there to think about?
Then you can take this notebook quietly.
