The Unreal Editor works at that resolution, but it’s not a very good experience. To cope with the low resolution, you can enable small icons, and use the editor’s tab system to combine the tabs on the left and right sides of the screen together. Be prepared to switch tabs frequently.
Also, for laptop use, it’s very beneficial to buy a mouse with two buttons and a wheel rather than using the trackpad.
The minimum system specs there are the minimum needed to run with a good experience that we can recommend and endorse. It will often run on machines below these specs, but less pleasantly.
