Desktops are better in almost every aspect by a longshot. They’re fully upgradable, can adequately cool the components, and deliver like twice as much power to the processors.
Not my experience, at least for a long while. I give away my old laptops as hand-me-downs, and the one I got with a 1070 on it is still in operation, as is the one I got to replace it. The contemporaneous 1080 I was using at the time is in a box gathering dust.
Maybe I had bad luck with brands but none of the gaming laptops I had or used seemed to stay in good shape for more than a few years, while my PCs last over a decade.

Gaming laptops are perfectly usable but they don’t tend to last nearly as long as a good desktop.
