I am planning to buy a laptop with:

Intel core i3-8th gen ( i3-8130u)

8gn of ddr4 ram

Integrated Intel HD Graphics 620

CPU with 2.2 GHz to 4 GHz 

 

I will be editing 1080p videos on it. Will this laptop handle the editing , color grading and other works of premiere pro efficiently ?

Somebody help me to know please.

With that laptop your editing experience will be rather frustratingly sluggish: All mobile i3 CPUs are still only dual-core, which I had already demonstrated a couple of years ago to be woefully inadequate for even 1080p/23.976, let alone 4k, video editing.

It will work fine even i use i3 11th gen cpu with the similar specs just i recommend using of nvme ssd so that it would be fast.I even have edited 4k videos on it.  I actually started liearning it now and i am making full flegid 4k videos

to anyone who sees this in 2023 Eveyone else is wrong, 100% you can do it, it's not gonna be as smooth as using an i5 or i7 but it can get the job done, highly recommend doing 720P over 1080 if you can tho

And even that works best if that laptop has a discrete GPU even though that GPU might not be utilized to its fullest. However, it might not perform well if only integrated graphics is available, especially if that laptop has only 8 GB of total system RAM. And what's more, newer versions of Premiere Pro now eat up so much graphics RAM that there may not be enough available system RAM left to run Premiere Pro properly.

 

And it's becoming even more relevant in 2023 and beyond because Intel itself had placed the support of all integrated graphics processors older than the ones in the 11th-Gen CPUs into legacy status, which means that there will be no more new compatibility fixes while only critical security fixes will continue. And a forthcoming release of Premiere Pro will no longer support the integrated graphics of any 7th-through-10th Gen Intel CPU at all (6th-Gen Intel CPUs had already reached EOSL on December 30 of last year).

Moved to the Hardware Forum.

And I have to agree: Don't even try to use that for Premiere Pro.  It won't even run Premiere Elements well.

I think this will turn out to be a BIG disappointment.
