Interesting topic can be. What are you usually using to edit and retouch images? Are using a laptop or computer.

Personally i use my laptop which is HP Envy. I found it very powerful, sometimes when having more softwares opened, it does struggle a bit.

I saw that now you can edit on your tablet, but for me doesn't really interest much.

To be honest, but that's the same bullshit to edit a photo on your tablet as on your smartphone.

I'm using a Dell G5 5587 with a 4K panel, Intel 6-core CPU, 16 GB RAM, 512 GB SSD and 1 TB HDD and a GTX 1060 GPU. So it's powerful enough for my photo editing, but sometimes I would prefer a bigger screen. I've an old 24" Eizo screen in my cellar, which I will maybe use the next time when I edit my photos.

No, not really. My laptop was much to expensive to buy a new one after just one year.

so it's not really old. Then it's not point to buy new one. Mine is nearly 3 years old and still running well, and i keep it very clean. Still want new one šŸ˜
