Laptop up to $550

I don't get it, those models are less than ideal for what you want to do. Plus they are pretty crappy and limited for the money they cost. Just because they have an ssd and 8 gigs of ram, doesn't justify the expense

From what I remember when I went to Greece for vacation, they seem to be very outdated with technology advances. I remember my iPhone 6s wasn't even out there and the mobile companies that helped us with a phone card were very surprised and excited about seeing it in person. I do know stuff there are a lot higher in price compared to NA, though, and the country's economic situation isn't that great; I'm not an expert since I'm Canadian, but just my two cents on why OP's selections might be limited.

Sure, but the selection is already poor. Those pc's selected in the links are garbage. I sell that stuff, I wouldn't recommend none of those

@libertypo; even if that is the case what is the thread opener supposed to do if

1. there is no better selection available and if they only have a
2. budget of 550€ at most?

There is not really much they can do about it, right? You have to see they probably need to buy a Greek PC, also because of the Greek keyboard etc. But also importing one would most likely cause loads of extra customs fees, too, which would again lower the price the actual PC could cost bc of the budget limitation.

Just an assumption though

I just wonder what you suggest they should do instead? If those are the only realistic options available in their country?

An opinion was asked and so I gave mine from my modest experience. I hope none was offended. You know me, I'm pretty explicit on my thoughts. As for what the thread opener should do, I'd say he/she should wait if that is an option. 550$ for those models are a waste of money. 2 bits

I agree with libertypo in that none of the laptops listed are ideal for editing. However, the budget given isn't really much when it comes to getting a good laptop so it's understandable. For budget-laptops, Acer or Asus is a safe choice, and HP is to be avoided at all costs, which is something someone else already mentioned in the thread. You might want to wait until summer-sales to see if anything better comes up, if that is at all possible.
