Alexander 12 Posted November 18, 2016 Share Posted November 18, 2016 (edited) I personally prefer Laptops over desktops. Laptops are more portable than desktops. You can take the laptop outside the house and various places. Also, with a Laptop, it has less wires than a desktop. It only has one lead which is the charging-cable. Part of the reason I prefer laptops is down to preference.

David Smith 1 Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 I'm really not a desktop kind of guy. I prefer laptops because I don't game on it, I just use it to use the internet on. Plus laptops are a lot cheaper than desktops. For desktops there about as twice as much than an laptop. A custom build is so expensive too. Laptops are portable meaning thing that I can do more than 1 thing at the same time.

zoldos 14 Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Considering I never leave the apartment, a full blown desktop PC works for me. I just got a 24" HD monitor as well. IMO laptops aren't as powerful, have smaller screens, and I hate that "touch" mouse thing. lol Schism Souls ~ Join a new and unique forum, and enjoy a familiar interface with a friendly Admin!

Chamber51 3 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Desktops will always have better specs but laptops have come down in price over the years and have awesome specs. My last 2 main computers were laptops. 1 Link to comment https://www.baysidegamers.com/forums/topic/669-desktops-vs-laptops/#findComment-2795 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aoki 0 Posted January 23, 2017 Share Posted January 23, 2017 I prefer both but mostly laptop because you can walk around with it, with desktop obviously you can't do that lol.

Horus 1 Posted January 27, 2017 Share Posted January 27, 2017 I Have both, to be honest, I use my laptop for a work environment, and desktop for gaming and anything related to that. Pretty obvious that desktop is cheaper in parts to make, better graphics, and other such goodies. While a laptop is less powerful and has limited usage in the area of gaming, it is coming along nicely, but the prices are just sometimes really outrageous in my opinion. Add to the fact that you would have to change a laptop every 2-3 years, depending on the specifications and on you don't, you can pretty much see my point.

I have (used to) have an gaming Asus laptop an a built desktop. the desktop is older with an 680 as the laptop has an 980m card and allot newer. the outcome that the desktop wins the power and best resuilts Bayside Gamers Feedback Survey If I helped you out in anyway can u please click this up button arrow .

Ash 26 Posted February 21, 2017 Share Posted February 21, 2017 I prefer laptops as they are just smaller and much easier to use.
