Main thing is it’s pretty much impossible to upgrade them and like 99% of them have overheating issues when playing anything too graphic intensive.
Definitely not worth the price. Just buy a desktop or get a switch

Dude a switch? That's the worst possible solution.

Depends what you want them for. I want to be portable with the capability to play recent games at good enough quality and an ability to run CAD and software when I need. Can't be portable with a desktop, can't get the performance with something that's only $800 the cheapest category of laptop.

$400 Steam Deck is a great deal.

Yes but I'm not looking for a tiny screen with terrible computing performance. I need a laptop that can run engineering software.

Not really as their not made for business and their cards are made for gaming not rendering.

They are not upgradable and they overheat if playing something too intense.
Lol. You have no clue obviously
