The right laptop for freelancing

• Core i5 or Ryzen 5, 8-16GB RAM and an SSD for most online work.
• A good keyboard matters if you type all day.
• A decent battery helps during power cuts.
• A working webcam and microphone for client calls.
• Designers and video editors need 16GB RAM, a good colour screen and a graphics card.

Keep a backup and a UPS or power bank for power cuts so you never lose a deadline.
