Davinci Resolve is my go to editing program at the moment and it works out nicely.

The effects stuff is limited and the community is much smaller than something like Premiere, but it works well and on my system renders fast too.

 

The color effects/grading is probably unrivaled by any other program.

Hi guys, I'm looking for cheaper(or even freeware) softwares that are a good alternative to Adobe Premiere and Final Cut.

Im not a professional videoeditor i just want something not simple as iMovie but something that has some features of those two like "colour grading or colour correction".

Please help me thank you!

Davinci Resolve. Try this first, and it will probably do everything any sane person would need a free video editor to do.

Windows 10 has some video editing features built into the Photos app. 

 

You could give OpenShot a shot (pun not intended) https://www.openshot.org/

 

Or Hitfilm Express https://fxhome.com/hitfilm-express

 

Or perhaps Davinci Resolve https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/

KDenLive is a great free alternative, it's not as advanced as FCP or Premiere but it does everything a novice could want and a little more on top.
