I feel like I see a fair amount of gaming laptops in the US but a majority of people seem to still game on desktop. I guess what I am looking for is a ratio of one versus the other otherwise a country like China might dominate on numbers alone.

When looking for searching online for this I was mostly coming across pros and cons lists. This isn’t what I am after.

    I don’t see how any aspect mentioned is regional in nature.

    I feel like what’s in-style is going to be more important than thermals and overall specs. Maybe in some countries it’s more common to carry a laptop with you? Maybe desktops are viewed as “dated” because laptops have become the norm in schools? Maybe it has something to do with tech literacy? Maybe it’s easier to acquire desktop components versus laptops in some places?

        I think it is likely that most people that buy a laptop like these, see the shit show and the scam market and say fuck that, just give me a single product that mostly works.

        This attitude could be more prevalent in different areas of the world though. Imagine somewhere in Eastern Asia that’s flooded with dated low-grade products from China compared to the US where you don’t see a lot of laptop brands you’ve never heard of before. There’s going to be different levels of skepticism.
