But LapTop gaming is a different beast.

First of all, the t in Laptop is never capitalized.

Now onto your actual point, its a shitty beast. I relied on gaming laptops for years, so I know them better than most. Theyre pathetically weak compared to a desktop, and massively overpriced.

Theyre always worthless on battery, so you have to tote around a massive power brick if you want to do portable gaming etc.

This plus the mouse (and keyboard if you actually want a good one) automatically means a backpack or messenger bag, and a fair bit of weight.

Any gaming laptop in the price range of a console isnt going to be any more powerful than the Steam Deck OLED anyway, without really giving any benefit.

The only times a gaming laptop are even worth considering is when you travel or move a lot for work and you need something you can both work and game on. This doesnt apply to the vast majority of the populace. Even then, if you can find some small portable monitor, a mini ITX build is about the same level of portable while being far better.
