the cpu isn't too great so it'll run pretty slow and hot especially in after effects

the screen also isn't 4k which is sort of a no no in 4k video editing that the screen is a 4th the resolution of the actual video so you'll have no way to preview what the final product looks like.

It's not impossible but a desktop would be more suited.

The monitor is merely average even among 1080p TN on laptops, let alone 4K ones (I'm talking about colour and brightness). Cooling wise the 8300H model is quite good, but with 8750H, expect poor thermals.

Are you sure you *need* a laptop? What's your budget?

My budget is around what the laptop costs in India. Also I have external display so that's not an issue

So why do you need a laptop if you're going to hook it up to an external display? Build a workstation that will be very significantly cheaper and more powerful

I just don't think that's possible with a budget of about 1000$ US. Perharps the used market can do you any good? I really don't know what's that like in India, unfortunately.

Please reply to my comments, so I can reply back to you.
