Hi Kaylee220
Thanks for enquiring first before buying laptops.
Lumion is a high performance but demanding 3D software that requires that the hardware meet, and preferably exceed, minimum specifications.
8GB of RAM is the absolute minimum. Laptops need to have a high performance dedicated graphics card. Investing in good quality, high performance laptops will pay dividends in terms of speed of work and rendering time saved.
I presume you are looking to hardware so users can create and edit Lumion Scenes. If you are only wanting laptops to show rendered content, then that's a different situation.
Please read the following Blog and Knowledge Base Articles:

The files Lumion needs to create are large and can in some cases exceed 5GB.
I hope the above is a good starting point in your understanding of Lumion requirements.
