I own a gaming laptop and I agree. For that price, a desktop is objectively far better for gaming in terms of comfort, customizability, and power. If I had a choice, I'd have a laptop for work/school, and a custom pc for gaming at home.

That said, I still like my gaming laptop. It's a pretty good fit for my current needs.
